5.00Beautiful sunrise. Very cool but they provide you with a fleece poncho that helps. Knowledgeable guides. Also let you nap on the way since it’s an early early morning.

5.00Everett and Abe were great as guides. They kept us awake all the way up and back or most of us. When they say dress in layers do it! The opportunity to watch the sun rise is a great way to take in Maui. You really don't get many opportunities like this in life. Take the opportunity and Valley Isle does a great job. Thank you, Michael
Amazing trip to take

5.00We took this tour while at port on The Pride Of American. It was great because the pick up and drop off was at the Port, so no Ubers or taxis. Abe was our tour guide, he kindly dispensed ginger chews to prevent potential car sickness from the winding roads leading to the summit. Once there, the tour company provides each person a fleece lined poncho to wear to protect from the wind and cold. ( It was pretty darn cold!) As the sun rose up, the locals chanted a greeting to the sun, which was amazing. Abe did an great job filling the time with history and knowledge of his island. We had several bathroom breaks. Breakfast at the plantation restaurant was extremely generous. We all had the macadamia nut pancakes, and we loved them.

5.00Gets very cold but Jeff gave us fleece blankets which helped a lot. He was also very informative and yet allowed us to sleep on the way there.

5.00it was a very early start and the guides made it interesting. They were funny and knowledgeable about everything and everyone. It rained that morning so we unfortunately did not get a sunrise opportunity. However, they wrapped us up like burritos to make it much less miserable to be out in that rain. My appreciation to whoever thought of that!!!!. Breakfast afterwards was delicious. Would definitely do it again.
Great guides
