Safe and easy! For the past 9 years we have been rated the best downhill ride on the island of Maui. The safest bikes, the smartest tour time and the only company where the owner guides the tours. We offer our guests an original experience. You do not have to wake up at 2am on your vacation to do the Haleakala Downhill Bike Ride, and for many reasons you should not. Biking after sunrise is a mess, it happens during the morning rush hour, it is cold, it is unsafe, it is over-rated, it is over-priced and you can do way better. Bike with us at 9am, in a small group that has a personal touch where the owner does the guiding himself. We take a max of 7, the other guys go in groups as large as 25. You do the math. We also offer a variety of other tours, most famously our Road To Hana Tour. Come with us to get the Hana experience that you see in the pictures, the tour you want. We will not cram you in a big bus, we will give you a personal tour and take you to do the things you want to do.
