A Full Day on Maui, Without Leaving the Planning to You

The Road to Hana is the most famous drive in Hawaii, and you do not have to be staying on Maui to experience it. This island-hopping day trip flies you from Oahu to Kahului and back, with round-trip transportation from the airport and a fully guided land tour all bundled into one easy reservation. You leave the rental car, the maps, and the logistics behind and simply enjoy the day.

Once you land on Maui, you ride in a comfortable air-conditioned mini coach with a professional driver guide who knows every turn, waterfall, and story along the highway. Together you wind past 620 curves and 59 one-lane bridges through some of the most beautiful coastal and rainforest scenery in the islands, pausing at the stops that make the drive worth the trip. A light to-go breakfast starts the morning and a lunch on an organic farm keeps you fueled for the afternoon.

We have shared the Road to Hana with tens of thousands of guests over the decades, and an inter-island day trip is one of the most rewarding ways to do it. Our eco-friendly tour keeps another rental car off the road and lets you soak in the scenery while someone else drives. Sit back, relax, and let the day unfold.

Tour Highlights

  • Light Breakfast: fresh fruit and yogurt to start the adventure.
  • Pa‘ia Town: the laid-back windsurfing capital of the world, full of boutiques and restaurants on the way east.
  • Ke‘anae Peninsula: lava-formed shoreline, working taro farms, and a stone church that survived the 1946 tsunami.
  • Lunch at Hana Farms: a tropical organic farm and marketplace tucked into the rainforest.
  • Wai‘anapanapa State Park: a black sand beach with a lava tube, sea arches, and a blowhole, ranked among the finest stops on the tour.
  • Pua‘a Ka‘a State Park: swim in a calm waterfall pool when weather and conditions allow.
  • Hana Bay: sweeping views of the bay as you roll through Hana Town.
  • Ho‘okipa Beach Park: a scenic drive-by past big waves and windsurfers.

The return trip retraces the highway, which gives every stop a fresh perspective on the way back to the airport.
