This tour was amazing with an amazing tour guide!! It was interactive & action packed. We were able to jump off a waterfall, see the black sand beach with a cave & beautiful sighting of turtles. We were shown lots of hidden spots unable to find without the guide. The ride was crazy due to the twists in the road, but our tour driver was a great driver making sure we were all okay & having fun! I would recommend to any of my friends or family visiting Maui.

Yesterday my sister and I spent the day with Kellen on the 1/2 way to Hana. It was a perfect way to see and experience the beauty of Maui with a local! He was a great guide with lots of history and stories about the island and island culture. We stopped at many different places along the way that are known to locals, not just the same places everyone stops. Highly recommend Kellen and Local Maui Tours for anyone that really wants to experience Maui!

Our tour guide, Chris, was absolutely the best! We decided to do a customized tour since we were traveling with our 5 year old, and we didn’t want to be in the car all day. Chris took us on a great hike through the Iao Valley, and then to see the turtles on the beach. He was able to pick us up from our hotel in Wailea, and stopped so we could have lunch in between adventures. I would highly recommend this for anyone who is wanting to see a few sites around Maui but doesn’t want to drive or isn’t sure where to go. Chris pointed out so many cool things along the way that we would have never seen otherwise. He was so great with our daughter, and made the whole experience very comfortable for us. We will 1000% be using Awapuhi Adventures again!!

Below are the summarized points of experience. I traveled solo and had excellent weather (and three drivers). --- THE BAD --- - I received confirmation that my lodging address was pick-up friendly and I did get picked up where I selected. However, turns out Mahalo Tours shouldn't pick up at the address I input. This caused problems as 1) I had to change vans (from Junior) in the morning and ended up with the worst seat in the second van with Lenny as it was almost at capacity with a whole family who boarded beforehand; and 2) at the end of the day, about half an hour was spent with Lenny on the phone trying to clarify who was going to drop me off to my address until eventually Charlie came over to drop me off in the 3rd van of the day. Overall, me van hopping was a time-mooch for everyone and it shaved off time from the tour. - Black Sand Beach. This was the highlight of the trip BUT we were to stop here for 60-minutes and I broke away from the family who also booked the trip to do my own thing. I timed myself and I spent 55-minutes walking/taking photos near the black lava rocks and when I came back up, Lenny was waiting for me, a bit agitated, as the family I shared the van with only spent 25-30 minutes browsing around and were ready to hit the road. Them waiting 20-30 minutes seemed to have inconvenienced them and I think it agitated Lenny who passive aggressively said we should all be conscious of people's time -- directing it at me. As I did keep an eye on the time, I was confident I didn't overstay and looking at timestamps on my photos, I spent 45 minutes on photography and an extra 10 minutes walking around (not a lot of area to cover). If I can spend the full time allotted seeing a church I don't care much for without complaints, they can spend the full time allotted waiting for the rest of the tour group to see the sights we paid for. Lenny should have made this clear to the whole group ... granted it should be common sense when the tour is booked with other people -- but he was also ready to go when the majority were back in the van. If BSB was allotted to 60-minutes... it should be the full 60 minutes. I paid money for this tour too. - The solo seat in the second row on the right side is the worst seat in the house. I was forced into the seat as the rest of the seats were taken up by the family and/or their belongings when I changed vans. The most interesting views are seen from the left side of the van. Good luck if you get stuck on the right side -- esp. that seat. THE GOOD - Drivers were excellent! They were hospitable and good at what they do -- as I mentioned above, I met three. I met Junior, Lenny and Charlie. All three are comfortable with people and very personable. My favorite being Charlie -- absolutely fantastic sense of humor! His wit is unmatched. - Everything of interest was seen. I'm big on photography and it's why I went so I did get my money's worth. Maui also delivered with the excellent weather. - I see some negative comments about driving conditions. Literally the main reason most don't drive the Road to Hana is the winding roads -- it's why I didn't drive it myself. I don't get motion sickness so I didn't mind the drive but do some research before you book and start complaining about the driving. - Food. Food was excellent! They accommodate vegetarians. I love getting sugary snacks (my sugar drops so even if I didn't come prepared, Mahalo tours would have delivered!). All in all, you can't help who you get to share the van with but if you have a large family taking up 85%+ precent of the van, perhaps let a solo traveller know. I'm not the type to bend so it can cause for some bad blood. I'll try to get my money's worth and if I'm given 60 minutes to room around, I'll spend 60-minutes roaming around.
