Aloha! My name is Nick. I moved to Maui from the mainland and quickly started my own transportation service. I cherish the land here and enjoy boogie boarding and golfing on my days off. For 20 years, I've worked with my company providing tours for people from all over the world. It has been my sole job on the island. My favorite tour is the "highlights of the island tour" as it combines so many aspects of the island to give you a great overview of Maui. It allows for me to build a great day for you. Hawaii is a special place and Maui may be the best island. I focus on showing the authentic Hawaii. From the land, to the people to the sea. I'll educate you on the history of this great culture and leave you with a lasting memory of your time spent here. Fully licensed taxi tour guide. Fully insured with commercial insurance. There's no restrictions on the tours I offer. If you were to book a tour in Maui WITHOUT a permitted guide and permitted vehicle (which I provide) it'd be illegal. Make sure you read reviews and see pictures of the vehicles having PUC numbers/taxi permits.

Overview of your Maui tour

Journey to Hawaii's past by experiencing the Hana Highway the way the locals do! In my opinion, the first half is the best half, for waterfalls and jungle abound. Relax and let me take the wheel so you can enjoy all the beauty the road has to offer. Our stop by Pua'a Ka'a Park (the name translates to "Rolling Pigs") will give you a chance to swim safely in a waterfall, as long as the conditions are right, of course. Even if you don't want to swim, you can easily access viewpoints to the three waterfalls in this park. There is a waterfall under a bridge, a small waterfall pool for easy swimming and a larger fall for cliff jumping. 20 years of driving the Hana Highway have made me an expert, and have given me the ability to provide a thorough and organized day for you! Trust me, this tour really lives out your imagination of what Hawaii should be.
