We decided to drive ourselves- we heard mixed reviews about this. Definitely must be careful as the road are narrow and one lane at times and bI personally wouldn’t want to drive them at night. So make your trip start as early as possible- the point is to see and enjoy this beautiful island!! If you want a longer trip why not spend the night in Hana.
We started a little late and took our time. The information on this app is excellent!! The recommendations totally help you pick and choose what to see. We loved a hike up to a waterfall early in the trip which was pretty tough hike!! There were definitely easier and bigger ones to see without this hike😂I don’t regret it but for sure every piece of advice on the app was excellent! This is a great way to get all the info you need in the comfort of your own car sat your own pace!! We thoroughly enjoyed listening to the history of Hawaii on the return trip. We got within 6 mi of Hana and decided to return-having seen the beauty but realizing that it gets dark fairly early. Next time maybe we will do a reverse trip to Hana and see the other end. Excellent advice and presentation in every way!!!Fun and less expensive. Follow the advice given- drive cautiously and an easy doable trip!! Loved it.
Loved all the stops- a tad disappointed with the marketplace stop for food. Found it average or less than average. Coffee there great!!

This was hands down the highlight of our trip to Maui. Read about GyPSy on several blogs and the $5 we paid for this particular tour was worth 10x that. We started the day before the sunrise and I can’t tell you enough to start early. We felt like we were the only car on the road for pretty much the entire way up. We took our time and enjoyed all the stops and scenery. There are a ton on blogs out there to tell you all about the stops so I’m not going to bore you now but really appreciated the guide in the app telling us about all the best places and when not to waste our time. Found my coconut on the beach exactly where the guide said I would and cracked it open on a sharp lava rock. I drank that sweet coconut water while the surf crashed around my feet. Amazing!!! We went beyond Hana all the way to Oheo Gulch and walked the trail to see the seven sacred pools. After we spent half the day driving up to Oheo Gulch we thought the ride back would be a let down. Let me tell you, IT WAS NOT!! The historical accounting of the human history of Maui was awesome. Our primary takeaway was that it just didn’t pay to be royalty on Maui. Lol.

We stopped at so many places on the way to Hana including the black sand beach that took our breath away. The day we spend with GyPSY was the highlight of our once in a lifetime trip. Don’t miss the opportunity to take this drive and definitely don’t do it without GyPSy. Thanks for a great day!!!!

We happened to talk to a couple the night before leaving for The Road to Hana and they recommended this app. Throughout the trip we constantly said to eachother “aren’t you so glad we have this app?” My wife and I are already fairly indecisive and when driving it’s compounded. Had we not had prior warning to upcoming attractions we would have been constantly turning around (no easy feat on this road!) and circling back or arguing about whether it was necessary. So much good info and guidance about when to stop and what we could miss. We left the resort area at 6:15 AM and returned to our condo at 11:00 PM! Included was a 2 hour Pīpīwei hike at the end of the day. We stopped a lot, based on the recommendations, and we didn’t feel that we wasted one second of our almost 17 hour day!! The only stop we made that we didn’t feel lived up to the hype on which Greg (we named the guide Greg) bestowed it was the Waikamoi Ridge Trail. It’s early on the road and we were eager to hike. It was .8 miles, hard to park for, muddy and offered basically no views due to vegetation growth. The view from the roadside park was excellent, no need to hike, it just wastes time. Other than that, we were never steered wrong, and maybe the vegetation gets cut back regularly. Overall I would recommend this app to anyone making this trek, I can’t imagine what it would have been without Greg’s help!
