Sunset Magic on the Summit! - Our sunset tour to Haleakalā with Polynesian Adventure was absolutely breathtaking! The journey was smooth and well-organized, and our guide (Uncle Mitch) was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating stories and history about Maui and the volcano along the way. Watching the sun dip below the clouds from the summit was an unforgettable experience—peaceful, majestic, and truly magical. Everything from the comfortable transportation to the thoughtful timing and attention to detail made the evening exceptional. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Maui—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience you won’t want to miss!

Amazing sunset pictures above the clouds - This was one of the most amazing experiences in my life. In fact, I have never been above the clouds to see sunset. I didn’t even know that was the thing. It was an unbelievable view.

Some hiccups and bad weather, but still a recommended experience - We had some issues on this excursion, with a confusing double pick-up process (some of our group were picked up by another driver, and transferred to the primary bus at a rendevous location), but at that location, the new bus broke down, and we had to wait on repairs and, finally, a new bus. It was frustrating and communication was confusing. In the end, we got a working bus and our driver got us to the top of Haleakala in time for the sunset. Unfortunately, our night at the top of crater was overcast to the point where we could not see the sunset or the crater itself. Visibility was probably 20 feet. Of course the vendor can't control the weather, so we made the best of it and got some cool pics in the wind and clouds. Our driver, Mitchell, was friendly and determined to help us make the most of the experience. So the trip wasn't what we expected, but we would still recommend the experience!
