Itinerary
The Hana Highway is a 64.4 miles long (103.6 km), longest coastal scenic route in the world.
Just four miles into your drive to Hana from Kahului, you'll discover the historic town of Paia on Maui's north coast.
Hookipa Beach is considered the windsurfing capital of the world, you can enjoy watching wind surfers, kite boarders and surfers challenge the ocean waves and shoreline winds. This is also the threatened Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle capital of Maui along the shoreline and basking on the beach all day long
A bay on the northern coastline of Maui protected from the tradewinds by steep cliffs, Maliko Gulch is known as the launch point for what is considered the best downwind paddle around.
Twin Falls is the first easily accessible string of waterfalls and pools on the Road to Hana.
Haipua'ena Falls is a small waterfall and pool along Maui's popular Road to Hana. Thanks to the unsigned trail and short hike over an often muddy path, the pool receives far less visitor traffic than the well-signed falls along the route
The Ke'anae Peninsula is a dramatic half-mile long massive finger of newer lava sticking out from the cliff line of the Hana Highway.
Experience for yourself the deliciousness of Aunty Sandy’s Banana Bread and other roadside treats on your way to Hana. This unique Hawaiian experience even merited the attention of the famed Gordon Ramsey, which has helped even more people to discover this hidden gem.
Very photogenic spot to get photographed doing something life threatening.
The Keanae Overlook near Mile Marker 17 provides scenic views of Keanae's taro patches and the ocean beyond. The turnoff from the Hana Highway to the Keanae Peninsula is located just beyond the Keanae Arboretum.
Located just beyond Mile Marker 19 on the mauka—or mountain side—of Hana Highway, Upper Waikani Falls is often referred to as Three Bears.
The waterfall of all waterfalls. Absolutely stunning, and a popular photo op for Maui marketing brochures!
It's the 18th largest lava tube in the world and the largest by far on Maui. Winding your way through the extensive cave, which reaches heights of up to 40ft
Hana Bay Park is a centrally located county park and beach that serves as a town center for Hana.
Wai’ānapanapa, which means glistening waters, with Pailoa, its famous black sand beach and stunning coastal views.
It is a must-see along the Road to Hana. This is the place to stop if you're looking for a typically Hawaiian swimming hole and waterfall to swim under. The water is from a natural spring, unbelievably clean, but very cold.
located just past mile marker #19 on the RIGHT hand side of the road. There are stairs on the right, leading to a vantage point that provides views of Wailua Valley, Keanae Peninsula, distant waterfalls, and the Koolau Gap when facing inland.
A favorite among fishermen, surfers and local families, Honomanu Bay epitomizes seclusion. It rests at the base of Honomanu Valley, a verdant expanse of volcanic wonder—and the second largest valley on Haleakala's northern slopes—with rises that stretch 7,000 feet into the sky.
Spanning 7.8 acres and densely forested, it grants visitors up-close-and-personal views of African Tulip Trees and Paperbark, as well as sweeping vistas of Keʻanae Peninsula (and the vast, oh-so-blue ocean).
The unique rainbow tree reveals bright shades of green, blue, purple, orange and maroon, as patches of its bark shed throughout the year. Hawaii hosts many of these beautiful shrubs that can grow to an over-elming height of 200 feet! Many consider the rainbow eucalyptus the most beautiful tree on earth.

Pick up right on time. Guide a fountain of Information and deep history. Many adventure stops along the way. Long day but great.
🌺 Mahalo, Linda! 🌺 We’re so happy to hear you had a great experience on the Road to Hāna tour. Starting the day with an on-time pickup and having a guide full of knowledge and history really helps set the tone for a memorable adventure 🌿🚐 It’s definitely a long day, but we’re glad you enjoyed the many stops and felt it was worth it. Thank you for choosing Stardust Hawaii. We hope to welcome you back to Maui again soon 🤙🌈✨
Our guide was beyond amazing. So knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. He knows the area and can provide insight that many guid a s could not. He showed us places we would have never found on our own. His driving was excellent on a road I would never do on my own. If given the opportunity I would encourage visitors to use this company vs driving on their own. Relaxing and so much more to see and hear the history.
Thank you, Cathy! We’re delighted that your Road to Hana tour exceeded expectations. It’s wonderful to hear that your guide’s knowledge, driving skills, and insight into Maui’s history made the journey both relaxing and memorable. We truly appreciate your encouragement for others to tour with Stardust Hawaii rather than drive themselves. Mahalo for traveling with us! 🌺
I had such a wonderful time on this excursion! We saw so many waterfalls and went to the black sand beach. It was a great way to spend the day without the stress of driving on the treacherous road!
Aloha, Crystal! 🌈 We’re so happy you had such a wonderful time exploring the Road to Hana with us. The waterfalls and black sand beach truly are unforgettable — and we’re glad you could relax and enjoy it all without the stress of driving. Mahalo for choosing Stardust Hawaii! 🌴✨
We were incredibly impressed by the kindness and professionalism of Roger. He took us to beautiful places, the van was impeccable, the way he drives was amazing, and he really knows all the secrets about Hana. My son, husband and I were really happy and had a great experience with him.

Tour guide was good but the Van had way too many people and we didn't go to the 7 sacred pools at the end of the road to Hana. They also didn't use the Ma'alaea Park and Ride for us who were staying in Kihei, Makena, Wailua so on the return we had to drive right past it and go all the way to Lahaina/Kaanapali which took over 2 hours up and back !!!! This made the tour very long.
Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent tour with us, Duke. We appreciate your comments about our tour guide. We would like to clarify that the Seven Sacred Pools have been closed to the public for several years, and this stop is not included in our advertised itinerary. We understand that you may have expected to visit this location, but we aim to provide an accurate description of our tour offerings. Regarding the van capacity, our tours are designed to accommodate a specific number of guests for comfort and safety. For a more personalized experience, we recommend considering our private tour options in the future. As for drop-off locations, we follow a logical route to ensure fairness for all guests. While we understand that this may be inconvenient, it helps us maintain an efficient schedule for everyone involved. We appreciate your understanding and hope to have the opportunity to serve you again.
Great excursion. Our guide Quinn, was so knowledgeable about the Road to Hana. He gave the history and folklore of Maui in such an entertaining fashion it made the 9 hour trip fly by. Along with the fantastic scenery it was one of the highlights of our vacation.
loha and mahalo for your fantastic review! 🌺🚐 We’re so happy to hear that your Road to Hana adventure with Quinn was a highlight of your vacation! His deep knowledge, storytelling, and entertaining style really bring the journey to life—and we're thrilled it made the 9-hour trip fly by. 📖🌴✨ The scenery truly is unforgettable, and we’re honored to have shared it with you. Thank you for choosing Stardust Hawaii, and we hope to welcome you back for more island memories! 🌈🌊 With aloha, Stardust Hawaii Team 💛🤙
The tour was so much fun! It sounds like they're still going even after the fire? If so, I'm really glad to hear it. It's an easy recommendation for anyone visiting Lahaina if they're still operational.
Aloha and mahalo for your kind words! 🌺😊 We’re so happy to hear you had a great time on the tour—it truly means a lot to us. Yes, we are still operating after the fire, and we’re incredibly grateful for the support and aloha from our guests and community. 💛🔥 Thank you for recommending us to others visiting Lahaina! 🌈🌴 We’re honored to continue sharing the beauty and spirit of Maui with visitors from around the world. With heartfelt aloha, Stardust Hawaii Team 🤙🌊
This is a must do for almost any age and ability! Start off in a very nice facility and instruction process. Tom was very laid back but strict in the training and really well versed on the tour information. We really enjoyed the headset, so you will not miss any of the historical information while maneuvering your Segway. Top notch equipment gave us the confidence to maneuver easily through all of the humps, bumps and turns on the streets of Lahaina. Several stops along the way were right on time, which were necessary for historical briefings. We are avid Segway tourers in many destinations around the US, and we all agree that Tom, of Segway Maui, is at the top of the list! Mahalo, Mike
Aloha Cooper, your kind words about our Segway Tour are really appreciated. We love making our visitor’s days and we can’t wait to have the opportunity to make you smile again! Mahalo for choosing us!
We had such a great time learning about the city of Lahaina! It was a beautiful Maui morning and an amazing way to start the day. We did this as a family (5 of us), one being my 74 year old mother in law. She was nervous and our guide Tom, was amazing…going through all the training with us, being so patient and kind. By the end of training, we were all ready to try! The tour Tom gave us was so interesting, informative and riding the streets of Lahaina was so fun! Highly recommend this activity! Such good mems!
Mahalo Donna for your great review of our Segway tour. We’ve passed your kind words on to Tom, your tour guide. Our team is passionate about providing all of our visitors with outstanding experiences and Tom will be delighted to know he hit the mark with you. We hope that in the future we’ll be able to provide a similarly excellent experience. Please visit again. A hui hou.
