What a nice guy to have as a tour guide!My brother and I totally enjoyed the tour, Eric is incredibly knowledgeable tourguide, and was a wealth of information about the tour and Maui.Thank again Eric, Mike & Hannah
James Lee –
Quinn was absolutely the perfect guide. His knowledge of the Road to Hana and ability to weave in the history of the Island, coupled with constant attention to our needs was outstanding and beyond our wildest expectations. I say give Quinn a raise. Mahalo Quinn.
Michelle Akridge –
My husband and I decided to do this tour during our honeymoon to see the sights of Maui and we were not disappointed! Our guide Rich was the perfect blend of insightful and hilarious to help us through the long excursion. It was absolutely worth the time and money spent!
Unfortunately, my debit card got lost as we were stopping at one of the roadside markets during the tour. As Rich, the best human on the planet, was on a tour with another group the following day, he found our card, called me, and was able to bring it back to our hotel.
Lonny –
We loved the Road to Hana tour. Quinn was very informative and respectful of the Hawaiian history and traditions. I would highly recommend this tour!
Corinne –
This tour is absolutely wonderful! If you’re able to request a guide by name, Quinn is the one to choose. His education, knowledge and genuine passion for Maui and the Hawaiian Islands is unmatched. He is a wealth of information, not hesitant to field any question you have and finds a way to engage every member of his group. A guided tour of Hana is the way to go! Thank you again Quinn! A Hui Hou, Corinne & Ryan

orlando_b –
Thank you Quinn for an amazing experience! We are so glad we decided to go with a tour. We definitely would not Have experienced everything we did if we went on our own.

Quinn was. A great guide, full of history, nature. Very friendly , the time flew.
The black sand beach was great fun and the swim in the waterfalls was sublime
susanna13 –
Quinn is an amazing guide. He kept the long drive entertaining with fun facts and great story telling. He was kind, personable and super educational. He was also spot on with timing and ensured we got to fully enjoy each destination while staying on track with schedule/beating traffic.
The tour itself was also really fun. Highlights of the trip were swimming in the waterfall and in the black sand beach. Scenery was gorgeous throughout the entire trip, would highly recommend trying this excursion.
Bobbi_s –
Had a great time on tour with Quinn. I love the narration throughout the tour, entertaining and educating
at the same time.

Road to Hana trip was amazing. So worth sitting back to let someone with experience drive. Much more enjoyable than having to watch the road!
Our driver,Quinn, was fun and full of knowledge. Kept the trip fun!

I really like how Tom made our trip so smooth, gentle and very informative. I wish the time at Black sand
beach would be longer, and the trip would include sometime at the Pipiwai trail!

Being able to see a whole new world inside of Maui. I loved all the information and history that was told

and really fun to be around! 🙂
sona_p –
Beautiful scenery . Eric was a wonderful guide and he gave a lot of local history. Highly recommend this
trip.
Frances_ZB –
We had a great trip with Quinn as our tour guide. He drove us expertly around the tight twists and turns of Hana Highway and the Mercedes van handles the extremely bumpy roads.
Quinn was very knowledgeable and had facts and information from the time we boarded until we returned. He also came with an endless supply of “dad jokes” and bad, but funny puns. Our group of 9 all had a great time and we highly recommend a tour with Quinn.
Jana Raven –
Black sand beach was breathtaking! 1 hour not enough 2 hours better. Quinn was an excellent tour

Thomas, the driver from Stardust Hawaii, was excellent! He had great knowledge of the road to Hana,
kept us on time, and had superb driving skills on the road.
Jill Holley –
Eric was a great tour guide. He was very knowledgeable on the history of Maui. We stopped for Aunt Sandy’s famous banana bread, which was delicious, had the opportunity to swim under a waterfall, and walk on a beautiful black sand beach.
The road to Hana is definitely a trip that should be experienced when in Maui. I will recommend Eric to anyone that wants to take this tour.
Teresa Woods –
Our tour which began at 6 a.m. was delayed by about 10 minutes , but our guide Eric, called us to let us know his new arrival time, Great communication! Thank you. He proved a very knowledgeable and caring guide. Interesting information about celebrities’ who moved to Maui and their acceptance or not by the locals and reasons why.
Paul Meinzer –
Very informal and helpful! This tour was one of the highlights of our trip!
Maryann Asher –
Oh my goodness! What an ADVENTURE. Once in a lifetime opportunity. Beautiful views, gorgeous moments. I also felt very clean and very safe while on tour. Roads are indeed windy but thanks to our trusty fun guide QUINN he made the experience unforgettable.
There are so many excursions out there but this is by far, the best one out there. You won’t regret picking this tour, I assure you. And if you happen to get Quinn he’ll enhance the experience with laughter, jokes, and tons of amusement. He truly embodies the tour guide spirit and makes you feel top notch VIP travelers. He loves what he does and it shows! Thanks Quinn for showing us the best sights in Maui!! They really need more people like you in the tourism industry.
Duwayne C. –
Quinn was an excellent guide in this tour. Extremely knowledgeable, by knowledgeable he knows many specific facts, not general conversational comments. He kept the van engaged for the 10 hours engaging everyone. Always ensured comfort and kept schedule without being rushed. He says all his tours are unique and I believe it. He clearly loves his job.
They start early, which actually makes this trip even better. Deal with the early rise in order to have the best experience. Well done!!

Road to Hana exceeded my expectations. Would never do it any other way!

Gabriell –
Great Trip!
Our tour guide was Tom, he was fabulous! We stayed on our schedule the entire trip and was always willing to assist with whatever needs we had. My sister and I traveled from Michigan and could not find a road to Hana tour as they were already sold out, somehow we were able to book this tour the day before and we are so happy we did!
Natalie –
Amazing experience. Tom was our tour guide, he was very knowledgeable and answered everyone’s questions happily. He definitely made us feel safe during that drive! The hours just flew by!

Road to Paradise Hana …
This was an amazing tour into Hana Valley. Very comfortable with stops every now and then to see beautiful falls and highlight was black sand beach. Beauty of this place is out of the world. Our tour leader Tom was a great host and super safe driver. He gave nice commentary on what was where and best was his safety instructions that were very valuable. Lunch was really good sandwich wigh fruit and Hawaiian drink. Aloha and Mahalo

Memorable family time
Every minute was memorable, a Safe, enjoyable and friendly time spend the driver Tom. This was a
great experience and the best part was being driven to every destination with no hassle:)
Oscar M –
Once in a lifetime
Tom was an amazing driver. We’re so thankful we booked or we would never have gotten to experience
such a fantastic ride. Tom was such a good driver that my 10 year old felt safe enough to sleep on the
scariest part of the drive. Thank you so much!
Denise N –
A perfect Road Trip!
It was our second time going to Hana. The first time we were by ourselves. This time we went on a luxury Mercedes van with Stardust Hawaii tour company. And boy, let me tell you it made a huge difference. Instead of paying attention to the road and trying not to fall off a cliff, we could actually enjoy the scenery and soak it all in. The drive itself is long and thanks to our driver/guide Tom we could see places we didn’t even know existed. We swam at hidden waterfalls, tasted local banana bread, visited the black sand beach (my favorite) and took about a gazillion spectacular photos. It’s a must!
Ian M –
Good trip
Our family took the full day tour and it was an experience to treasure. Even though we had a hired car we wouldn’t have been able to navigate the treacherous driving conditions- the Winding roads were steep and narrow, and in some cases single lane only – definitely not for the faint-hearted. If you want to enjoy the scenery then there is no point of doing the driving yourself. Anyway the tour was wonderful with a well experienced driver/tour guide. He had a world of knowledge and was very informative. He stopped at all the interesting scenic spots including waterfalls and beaches and gave us ample time to explore the surroundings. The lunch provided was tasty and more than enough for everyone. Overall it was a tour worth joining and all of us had an enjoyable day.

Amazing Road to Hana trip with Ray
5 years ago I drove the entire road to Hana and back and while that was an amazing trip, this was even better with our guide Ray. The Mercedes very comfortable, even for the winding and rocky road to Hana. The 2 highlights of the trip were swimming in a waterfall and actually driving around the backside of the mountain (something you are unable to do with a car rental). Our guide was knowledgeable of the entire island and the history of the Polynesian people. This was by far our best trip in Hawaii.
Ken B –
Road to Hana
Very exciting with some precarious narrow roads, a must-do when visiting Hawaii. Please don’t drive there, go with a professional driver as we did – you will see what I mean. Plan trip for the entire day, it’s so beautiful.
Spencerfam –
Our tour guide was the best

Quinn was an excellent tour guide. Not only was he super friendly, but extremely knowledgeable as well. Very impressive and was so kind to everyone. We are on our honeymoon and we are so glad we didn’t drive and had Quinn as a tour guide! He was the safest driver and knew the roads like the back of his hand, which lead us to sit back, relax, and enjoy the views. I wish we could multiple Quinn by a million and move the Quinn’s to the Chicagoland area, because you just don’t find tour guides like him anymore :’) So far this was the best part of our trip! Very few things in life are worth waking up at 5am, but this was totally worth it. 10/10 recommend, a big thank you to Quinn!
peter_cj –
If it’s your first time to Hanna I highly recommend. I also would recommend requesting Quinn. His
knowledge of Hanna past president (he actually lives there) future history is not only impressive it is
passionate. You can tell Quinn loves what he dose and it shows.

Long But Fun Day a MUST SEE
Make sure you take your own food or eat at the first halfway mark. The chicken that we got at the restaurant that we stopped at was not very good and the vegetables were half cooked and the rice was very cold and you had no choice of what you were going to get. Luckily we took some protein bars and ate some banana bread at the midway point. Ray was an excellent guide and had a vast amount of information. My husband felt like he got on complete information overload and would have liked to of had some brief or a little bit longer moments of silence The stops are absolutely amazing and the view is breathtaking and exciting as far as the waterfalls are concerned I would’ve rather just done a brief stop at that, and in fact our entire group did not get in the water there. There are signs everywhere saying that you’re not allowed to get in the water there. We knew this would be a very long day, it was around 11 1/2 hours with hotel pick up and drop off. Only other suggestions were that many of us needed a bathroom break towards the end and that was difficult to find. Ray even had ginger candy available for people that might get nauseous and make frequent stops and kept the air up so that people would not get nauseated. Thank you Ray from your Tennessee couple.

An excellent way to see a lot of the island without the hassle of driving the road yourself
Ray is an excellent guide, he’s been driving the road for a long time and knows all the places to go and people to see. Going on a tour is an wonderful way to see the sights without having to drive what can be a tricky road yourself. With this trip you get an excellent guide and you go to some wonderful places

Our last day was the best day with Rory!
We spent two wonderful weeks in Maui and on our last day we took the Road to Hana tour with Rory. It was the best tour I’ve ever taken and I took this tour ten years ago and only remember one location. Our guide was so knowledgeable and answered every question from all 11 passengers. Rory is considerate, smart, caring, and just plain fun. He explained so many things about the Polynesian people that amazed us and educated us. I hope to return and bring my family members so that they can experience this tour. Thank you Rory, and bless you in all your endeavors. Keep doing what you do!

A MUST DO WHEN VISITING MAUI
We had many tour companies to do this tour with. However, we decided to go with Stardust. Everything that was offered in the package was delivered 100%. We swam at the waterfall which was a great spot for photos. We visited the black sand beach as promised. Amazing for photos. We even stopped in areas that were not mentioned when we booked the tour. Our tour guide was Rory, who is incredibly knowledgeable and provided so much history of not only Maui but of all other islands as well. Rory went out of his way to make sure that we had a good lunch being that we do not eat meat. He even purchased a special canoe, which had many fruits the locals eat. He certainly made us feel special. He made a twelve our trip so much fun and go by so fast. This is a trip that must be done if you are in Maui. However, do it with Rory from Stardust. You will not only get to see all the beautiful spots on the road to Hana. You will leave there with more history of Hawaii than when you arrived there.

Nice, many sites, very informative, great Lunch and looong trip. I would never drive there alone!
Lisa Panos –
Nice trip. Very knowledgeable guide. Only 6 of us so we had a more personal tour. Waterfalls were great. A bit confused about lunch since we had to pre-order our sandwiches when booking the tour, but we ate at a huli chicken place on side of the road. No one told us about the change. Trip was 13 hours, but well worth it. Much better to have someone else do the driving.

It was beyond our expectations! The luxury ride beated it all. Have done Road to Hana before by renting a car and driving and will never do the same mistake again. The Mercedes ride was such a great experience. We didn’t have to worry about the traffic, food, drinks, and we had the vehicle to our selves only. Our guide was super cool and showed us things we would never be able to see on our own.

City girl, New York, NY
I am a city girl and I am very picky. I was traveling with my girlfriend and it was my last trip as a single before getting because married in November. It was my second trip to Hawaii, but first time in Maui. We went on a Hana adventure with Stardust Hawaii in their luxury car. Our guide Tom was awesome. He greeted us with a bottle of a champagne and as Hawaiian call it “pupus”, appetizers. During our ride we saw many beautiful waterfalls, were able to swim in a lagoon, jump of a cliff in seven sacred pools, buy local banana bread, and saw some amazing scenery’s. Tom was taking plenty of pictures and I’m so grateful for that. Now I have some amazing memories for my bachelor trip to Maui Hawaii. I want to come back with my husband this time, and do it again so I can share my great experience with him. Big mahalo Stardust Hawaii.
