Sunrise above the clouds and volcanic mountains - Great experience. The drive up on the winding roads and watching sunrise above the clouds, on the mountain was awesome and the weather was perfect.

Great Fun With Al Pacino - Alfredo "Al Pacino" was absolutely amazing, charismatic, funny and knowledgable. He felt very safe and reassuring. He provided practical and easy to employ techniques for managing the road and altitude sickness. He could answer everyone's questions. His Haleakala chant made the moments of sunrise feel sacred and magical. No joke: easily the best and most proactive guide on the summit.

A must do while in Maui - Our guide Preston was great, very knowledgeable and kind! I’ve been to the Haleakala Summit to hike during the day, but nothing beats sunrise. It’s something you have to experience once in your lifetime if you have the opportunity to and this tour was a great option if you aren’t able to get the regular permit through the park. The local breakfast was really good and filling. The portions were larger than I expected. The restaurant is gorgeous with amazing views and has a farmer’s market that you have time to go through if you’d like.
