    Just some beautiful flowers.

    What an amazing time!! Stacey our tour guide was down to earth and knowledgeable about the Hawaiian culture during our adventure on the road to Hana's plants. It was an absolutely beautiful experience and she was just delightful. I'm very very glad that we booked with this company and that we had Stacey as our tour guide guided.

    Magic of Maui tour was the most priceless experience I have ever had. Owner Dana took all care to listen to our needs and make sure we were well looked after. Danielle our driver was amazing and made our day so special. We wanted to spread our pets ashes somewhere but our cruise line said we couldn't bring them so I reached out to Dana and she said absolutely it would be our honor to receive them so we mailed them the week before. Our entire day as drove through all those beautiful sites we talked about our pets and laughed and joked all while knowing at the end of the road we would be sad but happy to leave them behind. Danielle took us to great cafes and we also stopped and ate amazing local foods along the road including poi mochi, fresh coconut, local made brittle and the very best pizza of my life from Hanna Fresh! We hugged the mamma rainbow tree, patted the local cats, hiked the bamboo forest, saw sooooo many waterfalls and so many turtles. When it came time to set our fur babies free we found the perfect spot and were greeted by an army of cats and given one of our ashes was Duke the cat we knew this was the perfect place for him to rest. Then we hiked down to the black sand and found a cave for Bootsie and Joey to be set free as the waves came in and took them out. Danielle had brought rose leaves and she scattered them on the ground and played her sound bowl while we said a little prayer and said goodbye. We then ended the day swimming in a waterfall we had to ourselves. Danielle took incredible photos all day and boy they were amazing. Such special memories. We laughed, we cried, we lived, we loved and we left having made a friend for life and having reveled in the beauty and spiritual vibrance of this stunning island. Magic of Maui made sure this nervous passenger handled those curves without a single second of anxiety. Absolutely worth the money for a priceless experience. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts - Ajay, Kai, Boostie, Joey and Duke. Mahalo.

    My kids and I were in Maui for a week as I gifted my daughter the trip as a high school graduation present. I really wanted to make this experience memorable and one that they would never forget. I heard that Hana was a part of the Island that we should visit and I had zero ideas how to make that happen... I found DANA with "The Magic of Maui Experience" online when I was looking up options/tours to Hana. She had glowing reviews and one even said "Do not overthink just book!" And that's exactly what I did! I initially called to get more details. Dana jumped on the phone. And instantly, I knew she was who I was meant to connect with for this tour and booked immediately. We scheduled our tour for a Friday. Dana picked us up, she brought water, snacks, floaties, gear, bug spray, sunscreen, towels, and everything we needed to be comfortable. As we started driving, she listened to what my kids and I wanted to do and see and we winged it. Stopped and got coffee, saw sea turtles, got THE BEST banana bread, visited George - the sweet pony, visited the red sand beach, black sand beach, passed through waterfalls, saw beaches, went on a jungle adventure, hiked on narrow cliffs, swam around, felt the water everywhere we went, made several stops for food (Yulli Yulli chicken - MIND BLOWN), stopped for coconuts, souvenirs, all while hearing beautiful stories about Maui, and all the things "Road to Hana". Dana is a gem of a person. Truly, my kids and I adore her and talked about our adventure with Aunty Dana the next several days after the trip. Dana will always be a part of our Maui story. Thankful and blessed to have a new lifelong friend. LIFE IS A JOURNEY. LIVE IT. COLLECT MEMORIES, NOT THINGS.

    Having done driven the "Road to Hana" in the past, my wife and I were looking for a company that could not only do the driving for us but to show us things that only locals might be aware of. BOY, DID THAT PAYOFF!! After doing tons of research looking for the "right" company, I came across The Magic of Maui Experience and Dana, the owner. I simply reached out to her to explain what we were looking for and within no time, it felt as if I knew her for years. Her life and energy was vivacious and her care and concern to make this a "special event" was overwhelming! She took the time to get to know "our story" and who we were so she could orchestrate the kind of tour that would fit us as a couple. She tailors each trip to her customers. (The way any Private Tour SHOULD be) It isn't about her, but it is about those seeking the help of a local to show them the time of their life!! She arrives so prepared, you would think she is Mary Poppins! Constantly, she is reaching into her "bag" and pulling out snacks, clothing, water flasks, sunscreen (safe for the coral), bug spray, towels, and even inflatable tubes...you name it, she carries it! Whatever it takes to have a grand trip, she was prepared! As we started our journey, we traveled in an Audi with a panoramic roof. Glass all around us to not miss out on anything. Our first stop was to see the monstrous turtles as they come up on the beach. These beautiful creatures are magnificent and we were warned of the laws that protect them so we kept our distance but got some beautiful pictures. Dana takes tons of pictures so that is another thing you don't have to worry about. She documented our entire journey and then sent me the photos, free of charge (unlike some companies). Pictures are priceless and only add to the joy and remembrance of the day. Thank you Dana for allowing me to simply enjoy the time and not have to be looking and stopping to try and set up selfies. She was our own professional photographer as she knew where and what to set up the "perfect shot"! Like I said, Dana caters to what works for you. If you like jumping off waterfalls or simply like to put you feet in the ocean, she makes the "Magic" happen. We walked through a Lava tube that was hidden beneath a banyan tree (and guess who had flashlights to guide us through!) We came out in a beautiful bamboo Forrest and found a hidden river and a huge swimming hole...with no one else around. We saw, and swam in a gorgeous red sand beach where the water looked like Greece. It was a majestic blue and churned through the rugged lava stone that rose like pillars up through the sea. Hidden waterfalls that were just beyond the things everyone else was at. There was so much to see, I can't share it all, but definitely know this...The Magic of Maui Experience was all that the title says!! That happens because of the GUIDES and their dedication to MAKE that magic happen. This trip hit all the expectations and felt as it you were able to grab the ring on the carousel multiple times!! This trip to Hawaii, was for our 38th wedding anniversary. Dana helped us to CONTINUE that magic that we found 38 years ago in our last trip to the island. Thank you Dana for keeping the Magic alive!!! You are the best! After all, you are now OHANA!! Mahalo!!

    I'm a little slow posting this review. We were in Maui in October for the first time. Magic of Maui Experience was highly recommended. Dana was our tour guide for the road to Hana tour. She picked us up early and we got home late. She is the best, nicest and accommodating tour guide I have experienced. Dana's connections in Maui are impressive. I think she knows everyone on the island. Thank you Dana for a wonderful experience!! We learned so much about Maui in addition to all the things we did. I think about our trip daily.

    My husband and I spent the day with Dana touring the road to Hana. Having an experienced driver on the winding roads to Hana gave us the ability to relax and enjoy this treasure of Maui. I felt like an explorer in a National Geographic special as Dana took us through the beautiful hidden spots of Hana. Our day started at 9am and finished at 7:30pm. We saw waterfalls, hiked through forests and streams, enjoyed a delicious lunch/ice cream, and saw the sun set as we headed home. The entire day was made EXTRA special because of the knowledge and friendliness of Dana. She pays attention to each person on her trip and provides the personal care to make everyone comfortable.

    We had so much fun and tried the very best coconut ice cream on the island

    I traveled by myself and don't know how to drive. Dana and Gordana made my trip to the magical Maui experience become possible! Gordana drove me around the island and really gave me deep, local and also wonderful experiences I could ask for on the island. This will be your life experience and you will also make good friends in the end!

    We just had the most incredible day with Dana! Not only did she give us one of the best experiences of our lives, she helped us with all of our planning of activities and gave us recommendations which all were amazing. She really knows Maui and saved us a ton of time being our personal concierge! She has Hana down to an art and we got to go to so many spots that we had all to ourselves. We would have never found these places on our own and would have wasted so much time. If you like to have fun and want the ultimate best time of your vacation, call Dana and you will be so happy you did.

It was an honor to see how this small farm is maintaining the heritage and history after the large corporations have abandoned the islands. The pineapple they grow is absolutely delicious and I appreciated the opportunity to learn more about it. Our tour guide was Brian, and he was extremely funny and engaging throughout. We took a short ride from the general store, which is where you check in, up to the farm to see the various stages of growth. We learned how the pineapples are harvested and I have a newfound respect for the amount of work it takes to grow a single pineapple. The highlight for me was learning how to properly cut a pineapple, which I thought would be no easy feat, but once you know how to do it, it is extremely simple. Sampling the pineapple out in the Maui sunshine was the cherry on top. I highly recommend coming to take this tour and if not, at least stopping by the store to purchase some fresh pineapple or other pineapple related products.

We could not have had a group that meshed BETTER than all of us. Our guide Henry clearly knew "the good spots" because we didn't stop anywhere that anyone else was... he made us climb down treacherous "root ladders" and walk through the coldest water up to our necks but his ideas were always SO worth it.

Arrive with good walking shoes, SPF, light sweater and hat (it can get either a little chilly or hot from the direct sunlight), and well hydrated if possible. We were greeted by our friendly and knowledgeable tourguide, Kate from Maryland! She shared with us so many facts about the locally grown produce from herbs, vegetables, fruits, to the friendly worms, to compost and facts about the Farm and the hardworking staff! It was interactive because we got to sniff the herbs, taste the locally grown lettuce, carry a chicken (as seen in the photo with my mom), and even pick the Cherry coffee! After the 2 hour tour, the last hour takes you back to this beautiful seating area in a garden like setting for your 4 course lunch! Each course, the chef comes out and shares details of each course. First course was a Medley of Greens grown on the farm with Tangerine vinaigrette. It was a generous portion for our party of 3 and tried to eat it throughout. There was spiraled carrots and radish with julienned snap peas. Second course was Pan Seared Ono (their proteins are all locally sourced) with Mamaki Tea and Lemongrass Rice with Bok Choy, Collared Greens and Cabbage. Third course was my favorite! I'm usually a big fan of fish but the chicken was so savory and that rub was delish! It was an Organic, Cage Free Chicken with Coffee Cherry Citrus rub with Caramelized Coffee Honey Hash of Carrots, Parsnips, Rutabaga and Celery Root. The spread was a Turmeric and Parsnip puree. Last course of dessert was the O'o Freshly Brewed Coffee with Milk and Simple Syrup with a Dessert Platter of Fresh sliced Pineapple, Tangerine and Apple with Homemade Chocolate Truffles.
