Haleakala Sunrise Tour

Posted on: 2014/07/16

My husband and I recommend this to everyone!! Special thanks to Steve and Noah our guides!! It is worth it to get up so early to see the beauty of this island and the sun. We had perfect weather and temps (52 F). Sometimes it gets too cloudy up there to see anything and with the wind chill it can be freezing! This company provides you with gloves, pants, windbreaker, and helmet & bike. Dress warmly and wear the gloves. We got there earlier than other companies so we had the perfect view! There is a visitor center if you get cold but your pictures won't be as good.

The bike ride itself was thrilling and so beautiful. You mainly go downhill with a couple of spots where you need to pedal. I hate going fast and have a fear of heights but I wanted to do this excursion. Mahalo to Steve for helping me with those tight curves! We felt very safe because Noah & Steve communicate via walkie talkies. We stopped at a lavender farm which was lovely. The lavender tea and scones were delicious. We had breakfast too-banana pancakes and a breakfast sandwich-everything was so flavorful and yummy.

We had a great time and this excursion was my husband's favorite part of our trip! Visit Noah's cafe, Coconut's Fish Cafe-BEST fish tacos on the whole island!!

South Maui Snorkel & Kayak: South Shore Explorer

Posted on: 2014/07/16

I would give this 4 1/2 stars! My husband and I ended up getting a private tour because no one else signed up! Our guide was great (didn't give name)-he constantly was bringing things back up to the surface to show us and was very knowledgable about anything we asked about. I had a very personal and special experience with a female turtle while snorkeling and we saw some while kayaking, but I thought we would see more at the turtle cleaning station. Would recommend this to anyone with experience. The total time was good but we wish it could have been a little longer-our guide didn't want us to be on choppy waters. Our tour was around 3 hrs. They provide you with snacks and water. Our guide was snapping pictures for us and will e-mail them to us for free! Can't wait to see them! Mahalo to our guide and this company!!

Tip: After you are done, ask your guide about the Jaws Food Truck-delicious fish tacos and burritos with snacks and smoothies!
