All Reviews for Kula & Makawao - Upcountry Maui

This tour was comfortable, informative, and lots of fun. Our guide/driver Brandan is a safe driver and a genuinely nice person. He was born and raised on Maui, so he knew exactly where to go and what to see and do. For me, the best part of the trip was swimming under a waterfall; The cool water was so refreshing. Brandan also has a deep knowledge of Maui's history and Hawaiian culture which was invaluable as we learned so much about Maui's amazing natural environment from him.

This was a great day out and well worth it.

Also, like to give a shout out to our shuttle driver Kevin. He's from our neck of the woods so it was a real pleasure chatting with him.

The sunrise and sea of clouds viewed from the summit of Haleakalā was the best moment. The subsequent cycling tour was simply "amazing!" Although it was in English, the guide carefully explained the mountain biking precautions and led the way, which made me feel safe while riding. I definitely want to participate again.

ハレアカラ山頂から見る日の出と雲海のコラボ、最高のひと時でした。その後のサイクリングツアーは『気持ちいい！』の一言です！英語ガイドですが、マウンテンバイクの注意事項を丁寧に説明いただけ、かつ、先頭を走ってリードしてくれたので安心に走ることが出来ました。
是非ともまた参加したいと思います。

h. The guide explained the entire pineapple-growing process in an easy, engaging way, and the tasting was excellent, truly the freshest pineapple I’ve ever had

The Maui Gold pineapple, grown at the foot of Haleakalā, is incredibly delicious. Unfortunately, my limited English skills made it difficult for me to understand most of the guide's explanations. I was impressed by how much could be said about just a pineapple. Since I had researched the origins of Maui Gold beforehand, I felt like I understood it to some extent. Everyone else was a traveler from the mainland. I struggled with the knife provided in the condominium to cut the souvenir pineapple, but it tasted even better when chilled than the samples I tried locally.

ハレアカラ山の麓で育ったMaui Goldpineappleは最高に美味しい。
残念ながら英語力が乏しい私には、ガイドさんの説明は殆ど理解出来出来ませんでした。
パイナップルだけであれ程語られるかと感服しました。
事前にマウイゴールドの成り立ちを調べていたので、何となく理解した気分です。
私達以外は全てメインランドの旅行者ばかりでした。
土産のパイナップルは、コンドミニアム備え付けの包丁では苦労しましたが、冷して食べると現地の試食より美味い。

This tour was so informative. Our guide was excellent and we each received a pineapple to bring home.

I have been to the Big Island of Hawaii three times and experienced the great nature of Hawaii, which is completely different from the hustle and bustle of Honolulu on Oahu. This time, I stayed on Maui for the first time and participated in a tour exploring the island's natural beauty, and once again, I fully enjoyed the grandeur of Hawaii's nature. While the overall atmosphere is similar to the Big Island, I could feel the unique vibe of Maui.

Although it is still not very familiar to Japanese people, this adds to its untouched feeling, and I became good friends with my fellow tour participants during lunch and other activities. Additionally, the driver and guide for the day spoke in clear English, making it easy to understand the history and points of interest on Maui.

ハワイ島にもこれまで3度ほど行ってオアフ島のホノルルの喧騒とは全く違うハワイの大自然を経験しているが、今回、初めてマウイ島でステイして、島の大自然を巡るツアーに参加したが、改めて、ハワイの自然の雄大さを満喫した。ハワイ島とは全体の雰囲気が似ているが、マウイ独特の雰囲気が感じられた。
まだまだ日本人には馴染みが少ないが、その分、手垢のついていない感じがあり、ツアーの同乗者ともランチ等ですっかり仲良くなった。また当日のドライバー兼ガイドのおじさんが分かりやすい英語で話してくれたので、マウイ島の歴史やスポットの説明が良く理解できた。

Great tour, well organised. We had a great time, saw a lot of the island’ s beauties and our guide couldn’ t be better.

Such a wonderful farm, such a caring staff, so surreal to Hawaii!!!

I can still smell the farms, it was such a wonderful day trip on Maui!!

We were excited to learn about and taste the Maui Gold pineapples. They live up to their reputation! Super sweet and flavorful! We were disappointed that the workers had all gone home by 1:45pm on a Tuesday when our tour was. We would have liked to have seen them sorting the pineapples, etc.

Getting the pineapple to bring back to the condo after was the best!

Went with family and had a wonderful time in the gorgeous pineapple farm!

This was a hit for me. Accommodations (vehicle, drinks, food) were excellent. Tour guide knowledge was excellent. They didn’t beg/guilt trip for tips like every other guided tour in Hawaii which made me happy — this made me more inclined to tip nicely. Don’t hesitate to book this because the guided narration enriches the experience so much. If you’re an adventure seeker, there are two decent options to get wet — one black sand beach at the state park and one waterfall pool.

What a cute farm and the product, well simply delicious!

Beautiful weather, beautiful morning, beautiful event all around, we have done before and will do next time were back again!

It was my first time seeing a pineapple plant. It was a fun tour where I got to see cute baby pineapples and even do some tastings. On the way back, we each received a pineapple as a souvenir. It was very sweet and juicy. I might have seen a yellow pineapple for the first time!

初めて見るパイナップルプラント。可愛いベビーパイナップルが見れたら、試食もでき楽しいツアーでした。帰りに1人1つのパイナップルをお土産にもらいました。とても甘くてジューシー。黄色いパイナップルを初めてみたかも！

Thank you for the Fun time! Our guides helped to make our visit very enjoyable!

Everett was the best tour guide ever and made sure we all we comfortable and had a fabulous time

We really enjoyed the tour. The waterfall stops and lush rainforest scenery were beautiful. The lunch was good. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and informative. The black sand beach was the highlight for us! We loved going the reverse route. We definitely recommend this tour!

the pineapple farm was so gorgeous and the smell of island fruits filled the air! the pineapple to bring home was a treat on top of a great day!

Shiloh(sp?) on bus #3 was amazing! He was very informative and had a great way to keep everyone engaged! We really took a lot away! The Kids had a blast and we would highly recommend! (Very little walking)

Road to Hana tour was amazing with Janel as our guide! She navigated the roads expertly and shared so much history and interesting anecdotes. All the stops we made along the way were 5 star!!

So much information about Hawaii pineapple history, the workers, how pineapples are grown…just unbelievable! Tour guide Moe and Maureen were fantastic! Eating just picked pineapple in the field…unbelievable and worth the price.

We have been ziplining in Mexico and Costa Rica. Maybe we were spoiled. The Maui runs were shorter. Still fun. But maybe better for people that haven't done it in other places.

This was an awesome tour! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the pineapple farm. We sampled the best pineapple ever! So worth the time and money paid!

It was a beautiful day spent beneath the amazing green nature & the breathtaking views. Our guide was very nice & friendly. The whole tour was spectacular. We took the reverse road to Hana. So we experienced both ways.

they give you a pineapple at the end, how awesome!

The tour was very informative and our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. He seemed to truly enjoy sharing his knowledge about the Maui Gold pineapple growing process and harvest. We enjoyed the whole experience.

Perfect tour with a great guide, learned a lot about Maui.

We did this pineapple tour on our first day in Maui, right after Haleakala sunrise, and it was the best tour!!!! At first you see the warehouse and production center and then they take you to the field to see all the pineapple— and to EAT all the pineapple!!! My husband still claims it was the best pineapple he has had in his entire life. Our tour guide was knowledgeable about the whole process, the history of not only the company but also of other iconic Maui businesses and agriculture. He also shared a lot of Maui recommendations— one which was to always order Loco Moco, and that is exactly what my husband proceeded to do the rest of the trip . We had the best time and would do it again!
