“The tour was amazing. Preston the tour guide was very experienced and knowledgable. The sunrise was magical.”
Watch Haleakala sunrise, then ride 15 miles downhill through Maui with your own pace, gear, shuttle, and Makawao stop.
“The views were incredible! I 10/10 recommend watching the sunrise here. However the bike experience was not what I thought it would be. The guides were extremely nice and helpful but they talked far too much. I would have liked more facts and a direct tour than all of the story telling. Also if you have any biking experience the instructional talk was extensive and childish. They talked to us like we have never rode a bike before. Then the ride down consisted of lots of stopping and story telling. The tour also took around 8-9 hrs. If you are time constrained I would be hesitant but if you are…”
Watch sunrise from Haleakala with hotel pickup, warm ponchos, expert local guides, park stops, and a hearty Maui breakfast.
“The BEST experience on Maui! It is worth the EARLY wake up call! Very cold up there, don’t be fooled by being in Hawaii - dress in pants and sweater. They do offer large wool jackets which I don’t think I would have made it without it!”

Watch sunrise from Haleakala, then ride its switchbacks with Bike Maui guides. See what is included, what to bring, and if $317.89 is worth it.

Watch sunrise from Haleakala, then coast through 29 switchbacks with Mountain Riders on a guided Maui bike adventure.

Watch Haleakala sunrise from Maui’s summit, hear island stories, visit Makawao and Paia, and enjoy breakfast on this early-morning tour.
“You get up really early, get on a bus, get driven up the mountain to the highest peak, and get to watch something simply beautiful - the sunrise from the highest point on the island. You will be above the clouds and get to welcome the sun to another day. Besides seeing a sunrise, you will get a nearly 360° view of Maui, from the valley to the mountains and even the nearby islands. On your way down, you’ll get to stop at a few points for more views and pictures. Our last stop was at the restaurant for a tasty, and well deserved breakfast. Things to look out for:…”
Ride Haleakalā from 6,500 feet through 29 switchbacks, catch predawn colors, and explore Makawao on a small-group Maui tour.
“The sunrise was beautiful. The ride down was great. The guide and driver were knowledgable and funny. I think the tours should explain the fact they don't drive to the top and you ride only a certain part of the road down. We had a great breakfast and ride through the little town”
Watch Maui humpback whales at sunrise on a small Lahaina boat, hear their songs by hydrophone, and enjoy calm seas with expert crew.
“We had an amazing time! Everyone on the boat was super nice. They gave us cool facts about the whales are were able to find tons of whales for us to see! The sunrise was gorgeous to see from the boat coming over the mountains. I highly recommend this experience and to use Maui Ocean Adventures to anyone who wants to do whale watching!”
Ride Haleakala’s famous switchbacks with Bike Maui, see sunrise and crater views, explore Makawao, and weigh the cost, weather, and effort.
“We had great tour guides- Dan and Tim. Dan gave us tons of Maui information and knows the island well, and Tim was funny and had lots of knowledge as well. Unfortunately, it rained so the bike ride was not really fun, nothing to see because of the rain clouds, and just short ride altogether. The high cost of $538 for 2 people should include more, like breakfast and lunch. Out of all of our Maui tours, this was the most disappointing.”
