How will I know which vehicle to look for at pickup?
Look for the black luxury mini-bus marked with “HAWAIIAN STYLE” at your confirmed pickup time and location.

What kind of footwear should I bring?
Wear shoes that are easy to take off for the ride to the hiking spot; you will be fitted with water shoes once you arrive.
Will you contact me before the tour about lunch?
Yes. Prior to tour day, the operator will contact you via text to get your lunch order.
Should I bring anything extra for stops along the way?
Bring cash if you want to purchase extra goodies or souvenirs at the “Halfway to Hana” stand, and bring a fully charged cell phone for photos.
This locally owned, family-run operation gets consistently glowing praise for their Road to Hana tours, with Brandon and owner Doug mentioned repeatedly as exceptional guides. What sets them apart is the authentic local perspective—these are Maui natives who share deep knowledge of Hawaiian history, culture, and hidden spots most tourists never see. The full-circle route (rather than doubling back) takes you to memorable stops like black sand beaches and waterfalls, with comfortable vans equipped with charging ports and thoughtful amenities like bug spray and sanitizer. The 11-hour tour runs smoothly from pickup to drop-off, with guides sharing stories and insights the entire way. Homemade lunches prepared by Brandon and Doug are included, though a couple reviewers suggest bringing extra snacks since lunch comes early in the long day. The personal touch really shines through—guests mention meeting Doug's family, visiting where he grew up, and feeling like they've joined the ohana by day's end. It's the kind of experience where you're learning from someone who genuinely loves their island and wants to share it with you.
We had an amazing full-circle Road to Hana tour with Hawaiian Style! Doug’s service and our guide Brandon’s knowledge and driving skills were top notch. We would definitely book again 🤙
