Great way to see remote areas of Maui - Very comfortable touring van and Eli was a great guide— friendly and knowledgeable. Amazing views of the ocean alternating with numerous inland waterfalls. It was a lot of riding on twisty, mountainous roads, so if you’re inclined to car sickness be forewarned. But definitely better than trying to navigate that route ourselves in a rental car. We felt safe with Eli at the wheel and he knew all the roadside spots for the best beauty shots. It was a fun day, we got great photos and we really learned a lot!

Awesome experience - Triston made this trip unforgettable and extremely fun! He helped us into the waterfall, gave a narrated tour with history, and had such a friendly and welcoming nature. He ensured we had everything we needed and then some. Mahalo!

Fantastic trip - My wife and I chose the half way to Hana tour with Aloha Pixabus. We had a great time with our guide and driver Eli. He has been on Maui most of his life, so he is very knowledgeable about the sights and the Hawaiian culture. Due to it being a weekday, we were the only people on this tour. We had a private guided tour, and it was fantastic. Pixabus has been around for many years, with a variety of tours, and they continue to expand their options. We would totally recommend them for your tours. Thank you again Eli for this great adventure.

Spectacular views - It may be much longer than the stated duration of six hours. There were people on the excursion that booked longer versions of Road to Hana . The tour guide can make or break your experience. We had Eli who was an exceptional driver and a fountain of information on Maui and the Hawaiian islands. He made the excursion so worthwhile. He's a keeper. The road is narrow and windey but the spectacular scenery along the way makes it totally worthwhile.

Eli is wonderful - Eli was a great guide. He shared lots of great stories ( both personal and historical) and was a great driver, too! The bus was super clean and very nice. It seats 12 very comfortably. The agenda may have been a bit ambitious, though. Eli was careful to get us back on time for those with dinner activities. I understand that this activity was “Hana Lite”. However, I would have traded 40 minutes at the taco stand for a chance to walk in the waterfalls instead of just taking pictures. Overall, still a nice day.

Eli was great! Very safe... - Eli was great! Very safe driver. Made sure we had beverages to drink. Very informative. Only downfall for this tour is that you can’t really stop to take pictures on the “half road” to Hana and you only get 20 minutes to swim in the falls—half of that time is used to change in the bathroom. So I didn’t go into the water. Other than that I felt we rushed back because we had to get anther couple back to their destination in time. The stop we made by the rocks to look at the ocean was beyond beautiful! But that was the only highlight. I think next time I’d rather pay for a private tour or do the regular road to Hana tour for more time.

No waterfall - Our guide was very nice; however, we were advised before the trip to bring water shoes because we’d be visiting a waterfall, but during the tour, our guide informed us that the halfway trip doesn’t include that stop. My feet never touched any water, just wish they had been honest in email so we could set expectations with our family/pack less.
