My wife and I took a private overnight tour to Hana with Makana Maui Adventures. Our guide was Zak and he was fabulous! We had a running commentary during the trip of what we were seeing as well as Hawaiian history. We stopped at two waterfalls to go swimming and he went in with us. He was able to show us, not just tell us, how best to approach the falls. Because it was a private tour we were able to stop when and where we wanted to and stay as long as we wanted. He was also able to stop at different roadside attractions that larger groups would not be able to go to. We had a great time and would highly recommend Makana Maui Adventures. As an aside I very rarely write reviews so when I do it is either highly appreciative or highly critical and here I can’t say enough good things about Zak and the company.

We wanted to enjoy the road to Hana while visiting Maui and reserved a rental car in advance of our trip. After arrival to Hawaii we decided we wanted to relax and not do the driving so we booked the 10-hr private tour with Makana Outdoor Adventures. We are so happy we made that decision! Demian was a pleasure to work with prior to our tour. All communications were excellent and we knew he would take good care of us. He arrived promptly and picked up our group of 5 at two different hotels. We had a short discussion of our interests for the day as we headed in our way. The vehicle was clean and comfortable. We had such a great day and he kept tabs on how we were doing, suggested a few activities that fit within our interests and showed us many things that we would have missed on our own. It was so nice to let him worry about the driving and just enjoy the beautiful scenery. For lunch time again Demian discussed our interests and made a couple of recommendations. We followed his suggestion and stopped at a place we likely would have passed by and had a delicious meal. Everything we asked to experience was worked into the schedule. He was very personable and knowledgeable. He took time to answer questions and share interesting information that we didn’t even know to ask about. He also just let us have some quiet time to enjoy the panoramic views and to relax and enjoy the tour. We were dropped off right on schedule and just had a great experience overall I would highly recommend Makana Outdoor Adventures for any of their tours that interest you and will definitely look them up next time we are back in Maui

Great experience from start to finish. 10 hour trip in all. Great food and beautiful scenery. Demien did a super job customizing it to our desires. Great swim in secluded waterfalls with no other people around! Thankful for his experience driving as well. Would never want to drive the roads with hairpin turns and no place for two cars to pass each other. Local knowledge was important!!

Our wonderful guide, Keola, was great. He obviously enjoyed sharing his love for this area’s culture, beaches, food, and plants. He was also a skilled driver on this challenging road.

Wonderful experience with our Guide, Travis! The road to Hana was a beautiful trip - gorgeous scenery, and Travis provided us with lots of cultural and historical information. He made the full-day trip very fun and interactive! Highly recommend!!

My wife and I had an amazing tour led by Keone. He was so flexible with our requests, which included wanting to do the long 2-3 hour Pipiwai Trail. He was very knowledgeable about everything along the Road to Hana, including flora, waterfalls, and island history. He also knew about and recommended less-frequented stops like a bamboo forest along the way. My wife and I made some incredible memories between the various falls, hikes (we strongly recommend the Pipiwai Trail!!), black sand beach, food at Hana Farms, and more. We felt bad that we were running over with a tour time, but Keone was flexible and even recommended stopping to see some sea turtles when we were almost back to our tour stop. That was another great stop seeing all of the resting sea turtles and all of the surfers out on the North Shore. Thank you, Keone, and Makana Maui Adventures!

This was an amazing trip. Our guide Zak was extremely fun, courteous, and knowledgeable. He took us up some amazing trails to see some of the less popular falls and views. Zak had a wealth of knowledge about the island and was lots of fun. We even helped a too eager tourist get his car out of the beach with a few pushes. It was a great experience and if you can afford it is a great way to see the waterfalls and not have to worry about where they are and how to get there. A great way to see the road to Hana and not have to worry about the drive up what could be a hair raising - white knuckle drive.

My husband and I were on a trip to Maui for our 20 year Anniversary and had the opportunity to book a private tour with Makana Maui Adventures and our incredible guide, Zak, for the full road to Hana loop. I can confidently say that it was an unforgettable experience filled with excitement and beautiful sights. Zak was an absolute gem throughout the entire journey. His infectious energy and adventurous spirit made the tour an absolute blast. He was not only knowledgeable about the area but also knew all the best spots to stop for amazing food and thrilling adventures. As someone who prefers a bit of comfort, I must admit that some of the activities were initially out of my comfort zone. However, with Zak's expert guidance and encouragement, I found myself hiking to breathtaking waterfalls and even taking the plunge into the refreshing pools below. It was an exhilarating experience that pushed me beyond my limits in the most enjoyable way possible. One of the highlights of the tour was exploring the black sand beaches and the lush rainforest. Zak's passion for the island's natural beauty was evident as he shared fascinating stories and pointed out hidden gems along the way. It was truly a remarkable journey through Maui's enchanting landscapes. I do have to mention that the cliffside drive around Haleakala did cause some car sickness for me, as I'm not accustomed to such mountainous terrain being from Florida. However, despite feeling a bit queasy, Zak handled the situation with utmost professionalism and made the best of the day. His attentiveness and care for our well-being were truly commendable. Overall, I highly recommend booking a tour with Makana Maui Adventures, particularly with the adventurous guide Zak. From the exhilarating adventures to the breathtaking scenery, every moment was filled with excitement and joy. Whether you're a thrill-seeker or someone looking to step out of their comfort zone, this tour is perfect for creating unforgettable memories on the beautiful island of Maui. We also apprecaited that Zak gave us advice on other areas to stop at on other days of our trip. Thank you, Makana Maui Adventures and Zak, for an incredible experience that I will cherish for a lifetime!

Zak was GREAT! Since we knew how long of a day this would be, we chose to do private tour so that we could go at our pace and spend the time on the things we wanted to (and skip the ones we knew we wouldn't enjoy as much). The FULL loop of the Road to Hana was just AMAZING... so much to see... and Zak knew exactly the perfect spots to stop at and things to point out. I believe he quickly realized that we were not much into souvenir shopping and he didn't even try taking us to any tourist traps. He did mention as we went along, the opportunities of places to stop and we felt comfortable saying yay or nay! We also stopped at a pretty cool local spot for lunch.... Hawaiian BBQ and what a view! Another favorite stop was an ice cream truck.... HOMEMADE coconut ice cream was THE best one I've ever tried in my lifetime. If it's your first time on Maui, and you can afford it, don't hesitate to book a private tour of the Road to Hana. And definitely do the full loop!!! So much more to see and the difference is like night and day between the two different sides of the island. We got to see the Haleakala from so many different angles... always impressive. We saw black sand beaches and red sand beaches. We also saw tons of waterfalls and canyons, a bamboo forest (so magical).... One super cool thing we did was to go inside a lava tube that was under a banyan tree... and on the other side a waterfall!!! I can't remember everything we saw. All I can say is JUST DO IT! It's an amazing experience. We felt safe at all times. And it was definitely worth the money.

Our guide Demian was wonderful. He was extremely knowledgeable about Hawaiian culture, history, horticulture, geology and an overall great conversationalist. The tour was exactly what we wanted in terms of seeing a part of Maui that we would not have been able to navigate on our own. He tailors his hikes to whatever level of activity and adventure the client wants. Food stops along the way are plentiful and delicious. Definitely a once in a lifetime opportunity when visiting Maui. Highly recommend.
