Van tours also offer a nice advantage over flying on a helicopter or driving around on your own. Many of the most scenic roads on Maui are rather narrow and winding with bridges that are only one lane wide. An experienced tour guide / driver who knows the road will ensure that everyone in your party gets to enjoy the view with safe transportation. Mini-coaches that these companies use sit higher than a regular rental car and offer superior visibility with oversized windows, you'll see things looking over the cliffside ledges that you would miss if you were in a rental car. These vehicles are superior to a tour done in a bus (for obvious reasons) or a standard 14 passenger van that is difficult to crawl in and out of. Another advantage of the smaller vehicle with great visibility is that you tend to get more attention from your driver.
If you love to drive on curvy winding one-lane roads that you've never seen before, you might enjoy the drive to Hana! Go for it! Many people try it and realize that it's more than they expected. We suggest spending a night, which seems to give people enough time to see all the special areas on the way and near Kipahulu and Hana. If not, then that's when a tour like Temptation Van Tours or Carey Hawaii is perfect. Their Hana adventures are really first class. The food is excellent, the ride comfortable, and the group is small. You can even request a private charter. Ever been on a bus tour where one or two people were holding up a group of 55? That won't happen on smaller tours like this. We can help you make the right choice.
If you don't have 10 hours to dedicate to a Hana tour, or if you are on a cruise ship and want to attend a luau later the same evening, consider the Upcountry / Iao Valley Lahaina tour or one of the tours provided by Robert Maui Tours or Polynesian Adventure Tours. It's not so bad using the buses for shorter tours, their drivers do a great job of pointing out interesting cultural facts about Maui!
