Thank you Billy. An absolutely amazing experience. A Maui must do. - Billy was an amazing tour guide. He ensured we got the best spot to watch the sunrise. The windproof ponchos kept us warm and cozy while we stargazed and waited for the beautiful colours of the sunrise. Breakfast was delicious and we were back in time to enjoy the rest of the day at the beach. Would recommend anyone going to Maui does not miss out on this magic experience. Thank you again Billy.

Unforgettable Haleakala Sunrise Tour - From start to finish, this tour was seamless and unforgettable. The pickup was smooth, and our guide, Abe, truly elevated the experience. He was incredibly thoughtful about the early pickup time, allowing guests to rest during the ascent, which made those pre-dawn hours much more manageable. Throughout the journey, Abe prioritized safety and comfort, ensuring everyone felt at ease on the winding roads to the summit. What really set Abe apart was his deep knowledge and passion for the traditions and culture of Haleakala. His stories and insights added so much depth to the experience, making it not just a stunning sunrise but also a meaningful one. He also made sure that we were positioned for the best view of the main event. Another detail that really stood out: Valley Isle was the only company I noticed that provided fleece-lined ponchos for guests at the summit. With the wind and cold being no joke, this extra care was truly appreciated. We dressed in layers but still wished we had even more—especially gloves—so having those ponchos made a big difference. That said, watching the sun rise over Haleakala’s crater was absolutely breathtaking and worth every chilly moment. Breakfast afterward was the perfect way to end the tour. The venue was a hidden gem we’d never have found on our own, with fantastic food and a welcoming atmosphere. My husband ordered the macadamia nut pancakes, and I had the plantation breakfast. Let me just say, if you’re debating, go for the pancakes. The plantation breakfast was good, but those macadamia nut pancakes? Simply unforgettable. Overall, this tour was an absolute highlight of our trip. If you have the chance to go—and especially if you get Abe as your guide—don’t hesitate. You won’t regret it!

Haleakala Jan 2025 - The tour came highly recommended. We were picked up on time and were safely driven to the top of Haleakala around 5:00. We were the first ones there and got the best seats at the top. Billy was an excellent tour guide and made the trip more informative and enjoyable.

A must see in Maui! - This is a MUST if you are visiting Maui! My husband and I started our trip off with Valleg Isle Tours to see the sunrise at Haleakalā national park and it was amazing! Word to our east coast friends- it’s best to do early in the trip as you re-adjust to the time change. Our tour guide, Billy, was awesome! He has been touring for 19 years and he is a wealth of knowledge. He will make sure you get the best spot to see the sunrise and get great pictures along the way! Also, the ponchos that were provided were a huge help to fend off the cold weather! Afterwards we enjoyed a delicious breakfast, which was included in the price of the ticket. All in all a great tour. Shout out to “Hawaii vacation guide” YouTube channel for recommending!

Great Experience All Around! - This was a great experience, from the wake-up call to the on-time hotel pickup, to the best guide (Abe) who got us to the summit for a prime spot. We had fantastic weather, so the dark sky star viewing was amazing. And the breakfast at Cafe Ole was delicious, with emphasis on the rich coffee. Highly recommended tour!

Wonderful Tour! - This tour was great! It was cold and extremely windy but the ponchos the tour company provides makes it bearable. We saw an unreal sunrise and had a phenomenal breakfast!

Possibly not worth it - Surprisingly, probably not worth getting up at 02:00 am for. The sunrise was spectacular but lasted maybe 90 seconds, with over 90 minutes waiting in the cold and dark in a group of maybe 500. We knew it would be cold and had dressed appropriately but did not anticipate the sheer wind force and wind chill. One of our party had to stay in the van due to the sheer wind force. The tour company did all that could reasonably be expected, no criticism of them.
