It’s Just Like Having a Tour Guide in Your Car™

WHAT TO EXPECT:
The Road to Hana is one of the world’s most scenic drives and a popular sightseeing activity to see Maui’s spectacular waterfalls, black sand beaches, bamboo forests, lava rock formations and amazing ocean views as you wind your way through 620 curves and 59 bridges.

If you prefer travelling independently, at your own pace, GyPSy Guide provides the best Road to Hana tour experience, along with the freedom to choose what you enjoy; squishing the black sand between your toes at Wai’anapanapa, hiking the Pipiwai Bamboo Trail, or maybe time to enjoy an extra slice of banana bread.

You can’t help but cheer on the world class windsurfers at Ho’okipa. And you won’t need to worry about photoshopping the Rainbow Eucalyptus at the Ke’anae Arboretum or the stunning contrast between blue water and black lava rock at Ke’anae Peninsular.

Take a moment to cool off with a quick swim at the pristine Hamoa Beach and see where Haleakala National Park descends from the summit to the sea and the “Seven Sacred Pools” of Oheo at the end of the drive.

With such a long day of exploring (expect 8-12 hours), it’s important to know the 5 “not to be missed” stops, and the many more suggestions if you have time. Part of the secret to enjoying the journey is knowing how not to waste your time, and we have tips for that as well.

On the return drive from Hana, we’ll point out the not to be missed stops again as well as tell you stories about Hawaii’s fascinating history and rich culture.

Please note Highway #31 ‘backside route’ is not recommended for driving. Rental car insurance void. Road can be closed for repairs, mudslides and flash floods.

Well worth it!

Well worth the price. Had a much better richer experience driving the road to Hāna. Super fun and informative. Would recommend this app to anyone doing this drive. I’ll try some of the others out now, even on drives Ive done before

Essential

This tour guide for the road to Hana is a must! It is worth every penny. Due to limited cell service in most areas, the guide hits every stop along your journey. It is a must have and can’t travel the road to Hana without it.

Road to Hana

This app is the best decision we made for our trip to Hana! Totally worth it! Great history and excellent tips for making stops along the way. Highly recommend it!

Fantastic!

My Dad and I used this app yesterday to drive the Road to Hana and we loved the stories and how easy it was to use. It surpassed my expectations. The commentary gave us the quality experience of a guided tour without paying hundreds of dollars. We loved it.

Awesome Hana tour

Awesome Hana and back tour. We followed the recommendation for places to visit on the way out and simply enjoyed the historical notes on the way back. Great experience both ways.

Bogus App

App stopped working frequently during drive to Hana and completely on the way back. BIG Waste of $$$

Exceptional

What an amazing tour provided on this APP. Well worth the money!! So informative and entertaining. You will NOT be disappointed.

Best App purchase I have ever made!

My husband and I literally just walked in the door from our day on the Road to Hana. Last night while getting ready and making our plans for the day, I made the last minute decision to buy this app. It was the best money I’ve spent on this vacation so far! We loved everything about it. We got exact locations of turnoffs, details about where to park, tips on what to do and what not to do. On the way home we listened to all the facts about Hawaii, the kings, explorers and we were back at home in no time! I will recommend this app to anyone and everyone!!

Best app out there for travel

I downloaded this off of a recommendation and boy was I happy I did! The commentator was amazing, very funny and kept things super fun! I learned so much and would highly recommend this app to everyone! Thank you for the amazing day today!

Excellent commentary.

Recommend this app, very informative on the sites to see and information on history and other facts
