This locally owned, family-run operation gets consistently glowing praise for their Road to Hana tours, with Brandon and owner Doug mentioned repeatedly as exceptional guides. What sets them apart is the authentic local perspective—these are Maui natives who share deep knowledge of Hawaiian history, culture, and hidden spots most tourists never see. The full-circle route (rather than doubling back) takes you to memorable stops like black sand beaches and waterfalls, with comfortable vans equipped with charging ports and thoughtful amenities like bug spray and sanitizer. The 11-hour tour runs smoothly from pickup to drop-off, with guides sharing stories and insights the entire way. Homemade lunches prepared by Brandon and Doug are included, though a couple reviewers suggest bringing extra snacks since lunch comes early in the long day. The personal touch really shines through—guests mention meeting Doug's family, visiting where he grew up, and feeling like they've joined the ohana by day's end. It's the kind of experience where you're learning from someone who genuinely loves their island and wants to share it with you.
We experienced the adventure of a lifetime on our trip to the road to Hana3/13/26. The tropical storm was just hitting Maui and no one would predict the severity. Our driver and guide Keven enlightened us about the vegetation, waterfalls, and Hawaiian culture all the way up to Hana during a light rain. The intensity of the rain started to pick up so Keven elected to turn around. He always had the safety of his passengers at the top of his priorities. Unfortunately, when we tried to descend, the road was blocked with fallen branches and thick full-grown trees. We returned to Hana and the company put us up in the Hana hotel. It seems like Keven knows everyone in Hana so he was kept informed as per the road situation. We left at 1:30pm and returned to our hotel safely at 4:30pm. Keven was always a delightful guide in spite of the circumstances. I highly recommend Hawaiian Style tours and especially Keven and the owner Doug.
