Haleakala Sunrise Drive, Maui
Climb from sea level to 10,023 feet on the rim of the world's largest dormant volcanic crater. Haleakala — the "House of the Sun" — offers a landscape that feels more like Mars than Hawaii, with sunrise views that Mark Twain called "the sublimest spectacle I ever witnessed." This drive ascends through climate zones from tropical to alpine in just 36 miles.
View tour details →Maui West Side Beach Drive
Cruise Maui's sun-drenched west coast from the former whaling capital of Lahaina to the luxury resort beaches of Kapalua. This twenty-mile stretch of coastline pairs deep history — royal Hawaiian fish ponds, missionary churches, and whaling-era landmarks — with some of the finest beaches in the world, set against the dramatic backdrop of the West Maui Mountains.
View tour details →Big Island Volcano Explorer Drive
Drive through one of the most volcanically active landscapes on Earth at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. From steam vents and lava tubes to the chain of craters that cascades toward the sea, this tour explores the raw power of Kilauea — the home of Pele, Hawaiian goddess of fire, and one of only a few places on Earth where you can witness creation in progress.
View tour details →Maui Haleakala Crater Road Drive
Drive 21 miles from the upcountry town of Kula to the 10,023-foot summit of Haleakala, the massive shield volcano that forms East Maui. This route climbs through ranch land, cloud forest, and barren volcanic terrain to a summit that sits above the clouds, home to the endangered silversword plant, the Hawaiian nene goose, and a crater so vast it could hold all of Manhattan.
View tour details →Oahu — Diamond Head to Waikiki Walk
Summit the iconic volcanic crater for a 360° view of Honolulu, then descend to the beaches of Waikiki — from military history to surf culture in one walk. The trail the soldiers built in 1908 now carries 3,000 visitors a day.
View tour details →Oahu North Shore Surf Drive
A cruise along Oahu's legendary North Shore — the "Seven Mile Miracle" where the world's best surfers test themselves against waves that can reach sixty feet. From the art galleries of Haleiwa to the iconic barrels of Pipeline, this stretch of coastline has shaped surfing culture for over a century and remains the sport's spiritual home.
View tour details →Oahu Pearl Harbor & Historic Honolulu Walk
Walk 2.5 miles from the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center through the USS Arizona Memorial area into downtown Honolulu — past Iolani Palace, the only royal palace in the United States, through the Capitol District, and into Chinatown. This route traces the arc of Hawaiian history from a harbor that changed the world to a kingdom that was overthrown.
View tour details →Kauai Waimea Canyon Drive
Drive from the historic port town of Waimea to the rim of the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific" — a ten-mile gorge carved 3,600 feet deep into the oldest inhabited Hawaiian island. The road climbs through dry scrubland into misty forests, ending at the Kalalau Lookout with views of the Na Pali Coast's cathedral cliffs plunging into the Pacific Ocean.
View tour details →Big Island Hawaii Volcano Drive
Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is the only place on Earth where you can drive to the edge of an active volcano, peer into a caldera that glows red at night, walk through a lava tube, and stand where molten rock met the Pacific Ocean. Chain of Craters Road descends 3,700 feet from summit to sea through 700 years of eruption history. The volcano is not a relic — Kilauea has been erupting on and off since 1983.
View tour details →Road to Hana, Maui
Maui's legendary highway winds through 620 curves and across 59 bridges into the lush heart of East Maui. From the surf town of Paia through bamboo forests, cascading waterfalls, and black sand beaches, the Road to Hana is less a drive than a pilgrimage — a slow surrender to an island that rewards those who stop often and look closely.
