Do not miss this life experience - it is worth it! - This was an amazing, not to miss experience. Two excellent events combined into one!! The staff was fantastic across the board and took very good care of us. The sunrise was amazing. The park ranger comes out and leads ceremony. If I were doing it again (or for the next time), there are only two things I would do differently, and they both were to better enjoy the experience at the peak: 1) bring one more layer; and 2) bring a hat and gloves. I might also bring a more hearty snack for afterwards, and before the bike ride. Drew led our guided bike ride down the volcano. He was great, both educating and entertaining us. The van follows you for the ride and there are a perfect number of stops for getting pictures, water (bring your own) and ditching clothes from layering as the elevation goes down and the sun comes up. A true life experience and great memory to cap your Maui adventure.

Biking down a volcano! - This was my favorite experience of our trip. Biking down a volcano was a great experience and Haleakala was beautiful. Would recommend packing some snacks, stopped for a brief breakfast time but did not feel like we had adequate time to eat. Other than that it was great.

Unforgettable bike experience - This was an amazing experience. It had been a dream for us to ride bikes down the volcano. Everyone was so professional and stressed safety the entire time. We had to meet at the Bike Company by 3am. We watched a safety video and then they gave us helmets that fit our individual heads. They bussed us up to the top of Haleakala National Park to watch the sunrise. It was stunning. Then we bused 7 miles down and they gave us our bikes that were sized according to our heights. We biked down the volcano for the next few hours with frequent breaks for safety checks. It was unforgettable experience. Highly recommend this tour.

Great experience with Jade & Drew! - I really enjoyed the sunrise guided tour. It was one of the best tours I’ve ever taken and a highlight on this trip to Maui. We were picked up from our hotel right on time at 1:45 AM. The briefing and gear pick up at the office was efficient. Jade was a friendly and engaging tour guide as she drove our group up the volcano. We had plenty of time at the summit to watch the sunrise. It was incredibly beautiful with the sunset colors reflecting off the clouds. Drew walked us through a safety briefing and made sure we all understood how to stay safe while enjoying the ride. He made it very clear that everyone should go at their own pace, respect personal limits, and that it was perfectly OK to get back in the van at any time if you felt uncomfortable. Drew was an amazing tour lead and coordinated closely with Jade to provide the safest experience possible. While there is some inherent risk in this type of tour, I felt that Drew and Jade did an excellent job in mitigating any risk. Beyond that, it is up to the individual rider to pay attention, respect their limits, and take responsibility for personal safety. The ride itself was awesome! I’ve never ridden so fast, let alone downhill and around switchback curves. It was exhilarating. The surrounding landscape and views were phenomenal. I am not an incredibly frequent bike rider, so I didn’t mind that the trip was broken up with a brief van ride through one of the towns. We stopped in a little town toward the end of the trip for a bite to eat before continuing back to the office. Drew was a great conversationalist on the way back to our hotel. This is not an inexpensive experience, but it is unforgettable and a good value in my opinion. I’d highly recommend it to anyone that enjoys riding bikes and has a bit of thrill seeking in them.

Amazing views! Incredible experience! - This trip was amazing. I’m not an experienced rider and it was ok. The weather is extremely cold in the morning so bring layers. But views were amazing. I’d recommend and definitely do it again!!

A Thrilling Experience - The tour was exactly as advertised. The most disappointing part of this excursion was the rain and heavy clouds at the summit of the volcano. No fault of the tour operator however, which kept it to a 4-star. We did not see a thing on top and got soaked with the rain. So glad the tour provided rain gear, but you will need heavy sweatshirts under that gear. One comment to note was that it was indeed raining at the tour pick-up point but the driver assured us not to worry as we'd be above the clouds to see the sunrise. NOT the case....!! Anyway, we did not let that detract from the trip down on bikes. A thrilling experience. It was apparent that this group placed safety as paramount. That was reassuring. Our guide, Drew Anderson, down who rode down with us was TERRIFIC. Again, safety paramount and stressed at every stop. We stopped frequently along the way to take in the views, take photos and listen to Drew tell stories about the history, culture, fun facts, etc. He was quite a joy. Stopping for breakfast in the little quaint town of Makawao for a light breakfast and break. Bikes were in great working condition, they had plenty to fit each person to a specific bike size, offered backpacks for any gear you wanted to bring with you. We were also followed buy the bus which took us to the summit to help manage traffic behind us and for any needed emergencies (which was not the case for us). Again, hats off to Drew for showing us such a great time and checking off a must do in Maui. We now look to the future for our next trip to Maui to see the sunrise in our personal vehicle.
