Beautiful and fun halfway to Hana Tour - We just got back from an amazing day spent viewing the gorgeous sights on our halfway to Hana tour. Our guide, Chris, was the best. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable but he was also funny and personable. We all had a great time!

Awesome Hana experience - 1/2 day Tour to Hana was amazing and Chris our tour guide was even better! We got banana bread, saw the black sand beach and swam underneath a waterfall! Our 2 kids (7+12) loved it and were sleeping on the way back to the hotel they were so tired. Thank you Chris for making memories for a lifetime and you are such a kind person and great guide! Mahalo

Best Road to Hana tour! - We took the Road to Hana. Our guide, Chris, could not have been more knowledgeable and attentive. He knew that it was our anniversary and went out of his way to make it special. Chris played his ukulele for us and set out a table cloth for our lunch. When we stopped at Aunt Sandy's to get banana bread, there was a flower lei vendor nearby and he purchased a lei for each of us.
He is a safe driver and did everything he could to accommodate my disabilities.
He took us to see sea turtles and to the red sand beach, both of which, other tours were not stopping to see. It was great getting to know Chris, and learning so much more about Maui and Hawaii. ASK FOR CHRIS!

Older Couple - Great Tour - My husband and I loved our tour of the Road to Hana! I’ve wanted to go on the road for years and was finally able to go. Chris was our driver and guide. He is very personable and knowledgeable. He gave us a lot of history about the road and information about different plants along the way. The road is scary but Chris has driven it so many times that I never felt uneasy at all. I walk with crutches and am unable to do the hiking and swimming at this tour includes. Chris tailored the tour to my husband and my abilities. We got to see black and red sand beaches and went to a great place for lunch. The scenery was amazing and Chris gave ample time to take pictures. The tour was perfect and the highlight of our trip to Maui! Thanks Chris!

80 year old widow traveling solo has a fabulous tour! - Chris did an excellent job of giving me background and answering my questions. I felt safe and adventuresome. With this tour I felt that I came closer to touching the soul of Maui. I can't recommend this tour highly enough. Make sure you add this to your itinerary.

Chris was our guide and... - Chris was our guide and he was fantastic. Showed us things and sites nobody else usually mention. This whole tour was exceptional because one doesn’t have to worry about driving. I’ve been to Hana several times over the years and this was by far my favorite. Worth every dollar it cost!!

Core memory unlocked - 10/10 would definitely recommend booking Awapuhi Adventures. My fiance and I wanted to do Road to Hana during our semi-short stay and decided a tour would likely be the way to make the most of it. We went with the full day private tour with Awapuhi Adventures and it was more than worth the cost with Matt as our guide! You can tell he really loves Maui and wants other people to love it and enjoy themselves too.
We booked the medium activity version, which included light hiking, and we only had one specific request to see Red Sand Beach. The rest of the time we were pretty much open to his suggestions and whatever else we found along the way. We got all the greatest hits plus a few fun surprises and the specific request. He never rushed us and made sure to adjust our tour based on things we spent more/less time at while also keeping an eye on the weather. This being a private tour meant we weren't beholden to anyone's schedules or interests except our own and it was fantastic. Meeting him at a location instead of being picked up also gave us some extra time so we got a very full day.
Matt is extremely personable and full of all kinds of interesting information about the area and different sites. He's also a great conversationalist and can chat about pretty much anything. In general, he knew when to guide and when to let us safely wander a bit on our own. He also got a lot of different pictures and videos for us that were full of little details or moments we wouldn't be able to get otherwise; Bonus points for being able to airdrop them immediately at the end of the tour so we didn't have to wait. The ride itself was also very, very comfortable and he showed up with little extras that we might need (towels, reef safe sunscreen, water, cooler, etc). We're used to driving mountain roads but we felt very safe with Matt driving since he knew the roads and their customs which meant we got to enjoy the trip without having to hyper focus on narrow and unfamiliar roads. I'd like to also give a shout out to him because I have two separate invisible disabilities and he was very, very gracious about them. He genuinely didn't seem bothered and I feel like I got to fully experience Road to Hana without feeling othered. Core memory unlocked! Thank you so much for the trip, Matt!
