Discover paradise with this self-guided driving tour of Maui’s number one attraction: The world-famous Road to Hana! This GPS-guided tour offers the ultimate Maui Road Trip experience for those looking to explore Hawaii's best scenic road trips. Road to Hana in Maui, Hawaii Experience the Hana Highway the way it was meant to be seen! Take in the astonishing jungle vistas, explore ancient volcanic tunnels, and get a healthy dose of the local Hawaiian culture. Through it all, you’ll hear the riveting history and legends behind how Maui became the island it is today, from the demigod who raised it from the ocean with a mighty fishing hook to the bloody legacy of Captain Cook and beyond. So buckle up for a tale of clashing cultures, royal coups, and Hawaiian perseverance. Oh, and you can’t forget the beaches! Soak up some sun at a jaw-dropping black sand beach, dive into Maui’s pristine waters at some of the best shorelines in the world, and capture once-in-a-lifetime snapshots of waves crashing against a rocky peninsula. Maui has almost too many wonders to name, but don’t worry—you won’t miss a single one. Start in Kahului or Kipahulu and tour with total flexibility. This self-guided tour includes all this and more: ■ Welcome to Road to Hana ■ The Demigod Maui ■ Paia Town ■ Ho'okipa Beach Park ■ Jaws Beach ■ Kapu Systems ■ Pi’ilani ■ Begin the Road to Hana ■ Twin Falls, Maui Waterfall ■ Captain James Cook ■ Rainbow Eucalyptus ■ East Maui Irrigation Co ■ Kamehameha IV and V ■ Hawaiian Unification ■ Waikamoi Ridge Trail ■ Garden of Eden Arboretum ■ Kaumahina State Park ■ Honomanū Bay ■ Nuaailua View Point ■ Ke’Anae Arboretum ■ The 1946 Tsunami ■ Kauikeaouli ■ Ching's Pond ■ The Great Māhele ■ Wailua Valley Lookout ■ Upper Waikani Falls ■ Taro - Hawaii’s Purple Vegetable ■ Sugar Plantations ■ Pua'a Ka'a State Park ■ Nahiku & George Harrison ■ Plantation Labor ■ Nahiku Marketplace ■ Hana Lava Tube ■ Kahanu Garden ■ Waianapanapa State Park ■ Hana Tropicals ■ Maui Flora ■ Hāna Bay Beach Park ■ Koki Beach Park (Red Beach) & Alau Island ■ Hāmoa Beach ■ Venus Pool ■ Wailua Falls ■ Haleakalā National Park ■ Pipiwai Trail ■ Kīpahulu Visitor Center ▶ HOW IT WORKS: As you travel, audio stories play automatically based on your location. Simply go to the starting point and follow the given route. Each story begins playing on its own, usually just before you reach a point of interest. ■ TOUR FEATURES: ▶ Freedom of travel No scheduled tour times, no crowded buses, and no rush to keep moving past stops that interest you. You have freedom to skip ahead, linger, and take as many photos as you want. ▶ Automatic play No muss, no fuss. Just follow the app’s built-in route to all the must-visit spots — the audio stories about everything you see will play automatically! ▶ Works offline Download the tour in advance and then use it seamlessly, even in areas with no service! ▶ Incredible stories Immerse yourself in the history, culture, and secrets of this famous site with the help of a top-tier narrator and fascinating stories written by experts. ▶ Award-winning app Featured on Thrillist and WBZ, this easy-to-use app won the Laurel Award for Technology from the Newport Mansions, who use the app for over a million tours per year. ■ Hawaii Bundle This bundle includes tours of Hawaii’s most beautiful islands: O’ahu, Kauai, and Maui. Experience Honolulu’s rich culture, explore jungles so lush they appeared in Jurassic Park, and catch some sun on the best beaches in the world. QUICK TIPS: ■ Download ahead of time, over data or WiFi. ■ Be sure the phone battery is fully charged, or take an external battery pack. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. This app uses your location service and GPS tracking feature to allow real-time tracking of your route.

Nice details!

Enjoyed this tour. And the fact that it would just pick up as you were driving along the road. My one tip to the narrator is to stop telling you to keep “driving straight”. As the road is incredibly curvy! So giving different directions or just saying follow the highway would be much more accurate! LOL. There could be more variety in between beginnings and ends as well. But the detours were all worth it and the details were great! Would love a route that did full loop, too!

Developer Response
Haha, good point! “Continue forward” would be more fitting! We’ll definitely include these changes in the update. And I’m thrilled that you enjoyed the detours — they’re my favorite parts too!

This was a great buy for us! We started driving at Road to Hana around 10:30am and came back our place at Kihei at 8:30pm. This audio guide works perfectly with the GPS and give us really interesting short but great info for each upcoming attraction so we can decide if we do it and really interesting history about Maui and Hawaii. We as a whole family really enjoyed very much the guide. There were so much to see and explore and we did not make to Hana and had to turn back while we are 8 miles away at around 6:30pm as sky is getting dark. On our way back, we finished listening the remaining missing trip which was a plus. We learned there are still a couple of really interesting sites such as lava tube we have not explored. We will definitely come back again to finish the rest of trip. Highly recommended for anyone who is doing a Road to Hana tour on their own.

Incredible addition to an unbelievable drive around Maui

I was not expecting much from this but was beyond impressed with the information shared throughout this app. We were on the road for a total of 13 hours driving around Maui. We had two cars (one person with the app in each car), and 10 people total (including kids). I have native Hawaiian lineage and learned a ton listening to the information in the app. I appreciated the stop suggestions but even more loved the Hawaiian history shared. This was an incredible value. We all agree that we would’ve paid 3x what we did for how wonderful this app was.

Wow, you’re making us blush! We are so glad that the entire family enjoyed the tour and got so much value from it. We put in a ton of work to keep things both fun and educational. I’m thrilled that we were able to keep both the adults and the kids engaged for 13 hours! Thank you so much for leaving a review!

If you enjoy learning about different cultures from the comfort of your own car then this is for you! I have two kids that are in elementary and this gave them an insight into Hawaiian history. They felt like they learned more from this than a regular day of online school. (This was joy of vacation speaking.) My husband and I were enthralled about all these talking points and couldn’t help but realize how mistreated these people were mistreated after slavery had already ended.
