About this tour
Trade the crowded route for a private journey through Maui’s lush eastern side. On this Maui Private Road to Hana Tour, a local guide leads you through rainforest scenery and around Haleakala, sharing stories of Hawaiian history, native flora and fauna, and volcanology along the way.
Pause at waterfalls for photos or an optional swim, then take in dramatic coastline views, black sand beaches, red sand shores, bamboo forests, and lava tubes. The private format allows flexibility, with extra stops and suggestions beyond the listed itinerary. Depending on the route, you may also see the backside of Haleakala, where panoramic views and wildlife offer a different perspective on the island. Local food stops and fresh banana bread add a taste of Maui to the day.
The tour lasts 570 minutes and accommodates up to seven people per booking. Bring sturdy shoes with traction, and pack a bathing suit if you’d like to swim. Waianapanapa State Park requires advance reservations, so inquire ahead if you want to visit. Book your Maui Private Road to Hana Tour for a flexible day of scenery, stories, and memorable stops.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 65 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Maui
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.8. Top 10% in Maui means it ranks in the top 10% of tours in Maui by this score.
