Temptation Tours
If you’d rather leave the driving to someone else, this tour company will chauffeur you to Maui’s top sites in a comfy deluxe van—much more luxurious than the large, crowded buses used by other agencies. Book a pre-dawn trip to the summit of Haleakala to witness the sunrise (followed by tasting tours at Surfing Goat Dairy and Ocean Organic Vodka; see below) or a picnic out in Hana. You’ll pass numerous waterfalls and stop often, but don’t expect to swim or get muddy hiking. The Hana Sky-Trek is actually a pretty great value; the 6-hour adventure starts with a drive (and swim stops) along the lush East Maui coast to Hana, where you board a helicopter for a scenic flight back home over hidden waterfalls and Haleakala National Park. The eight-person vans are safe and roomy, tour guides are generally knowledgeable, and the chicken wraps, seared ono, and brownies for lunch are tasty.
