 Verified Great experience and guide! Don’t pass this tour up!
The trip was SO amazing!! I went with Mar who was absolutely incredible. We saw turtles, swam in waterfalls, ate local food, and did some nice nature walks. The views throughout were incredible. Mar was the absolute best guide, she was knowledgeable about flora, fauna, and all things Hawaii. I was glad to have someone local show me around to avoid tourist traps versus going alone and self driving. I left with not only great memories and pictures (thanks, Mar!), but a friend as well. Also the Bronco with the roof off made the trip SO much better. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

 Verified Off the beaten path
My husband and I enjoyed a day tour with JJ! Look no further if you are seeking a personalized and interactive tour. We did things a bit backwards as we had already driven down to the wai'anapanapa state park for camping, but JJ curated a wonderful day. She took us where we could not drive our van to see the back side of the Haleakala national park where we hiked in to see the tallest waterfall on the island. Throughout the day we enjoyed the spontaneity and flexibility to stop and try things along the way. To sum it all up, on the drive out of hana we drove past many a "group tour" in we both said "we are so glad we went with Jill's tour."

 Verified Road to Hana Private Tour Perfection!
What a great way to experience the Road to Hana! JJ was able to pull off a tour that was fun for everyone in our family. We have two teenagers, and she customized it to include something for each plus fun for us parent, too, stopped at the great spots we wanted to, added some great hidden spots, and made it a blast along the way. JJ is easy to work with, super laid back, her car is very comfy and fun (the convertible top is a must-do for this excursion!), and she thought of everything! She even provided hats for my daughter and I (because we forgot ours) and loaned our son her Teva shoes so he could hike the waterfalls. She took photos for us and was a blast! She was super accommodating every step of the way. She hand-picked some truly magical spots and took customer service to the next level with drinks and snacks and great conversation full of tons of information about Maui and The Road to Hana as well as some great recommend the rest of our trip! 10/10 recommend!Riding along with JJ was like hanging with a friendly local who you’ve known forever! Thank you for making our excursion the best of the best!

 Verified Amazing experience!
We went on this tour with Mar! She was amazing and knew all the best spots for photos/to see the view. She knew so much about the culture and all the plants and land around us. Would definitely recommend this tour to all! It is definitely worth it to be in the car and do a private tour as well.

We had the best experience with Mar our tour guide. She was so informative about Hawaii and especially the language and local nature of the islands. Having the convertible allowed us to view all the sites from every angle. We were able to stop at beautiful sites that the buses were not able to travel. Mar was very accommodating and made several stops along the tour to try out local venders with their chocolates and pizza. Mar is professional photographer and for an additional cost provided us with a beautiful photo shoot of our tour. We had a great experience.

Our tour guide JJ was so knowledgeable about Hawaiian culture and history! She delivered on every request too! We saw waterfalls, black sand beaches, red sand beaches, yellow sand beaches and even a rainbow! We felt like we were hanging out with a friend all day and it was a really nice personalized experience.

 Verified Fantastic Tour Guide!
JJ is a great tour guide! She is very knowledgeable about the area and the culture. She is so fun, friendly and it is clear that she wants her guests to have the best experience. We chose to go up to the Road to Hana, stop to see the turtles at a local beach, and visit The Maui Cookie Lady shop in Makawao. JJ introduced us to Huli Huli chicken at our Hana lunch stop. It’s delicious! She shared so much information along the way including the plants and trees, history, culture, and current affairs. We learned so much. Thank you, JJ!
