High in the clouds, where the air is crisp and the horizon stretches on forever, the summit of Haleakala offers the most breathtaking views of Maui, from the Kapalua Coast to the beaches of Kihei, and from the summit of the volcano, you can see it all!
Haleakala Sunrise Tour
As the sun rises, Maui’s volcano begins to take shape. A panoramic view of the shield volcano offers a variety of views, from the endless blue of the ocean way off in the distance, to the stunning colors of Haleakala’s volcanic rock and sand, creating a swirl of colors that can only be described as mesmerizing. Scattered volcanic cones stretch down the mountain, creating an unmatched topography that provides imagery that would be impossible to dream.
Beginning in the early hours of the morning, our Haleakala Sunrise Tour departs with an expert tour guide for the summit, making a trek up the volcano in the dark. Once at the top of the volcano, the magic happens. The sun breaks over the horizon for the most stunning sunrise you will ever see, bringing a new day to the island, and soaking the beaches below in sunlight, while revealing the landscape of Haleakala.
“...the sublimest spectacle I ever witnessed" and "...the memory of it will remain with me always." – Mark Twain
Haleakala Sunset Tour
Ascend to the summit during the afternoon, making your way to the Haleakala Visitor Center for views of the majestic sunset. The end of another day in paradise from 10,000 feet above sea level will bring a new appreciation to the beauty of a world-famous Hawaiian sunset and the natural scenery that is created while the sun drops below the horizon.
As you ascend the volcano on our Haleakala Sunset Tour, the views of the island get better and better, culminating at the highest point with views of the entire west and south coasts of Maui.
