DESCRIPTION

A sensational solar experience and incredible panoramic views from atop Haleakala at 9,740 feet elevation. Marvel at the show of dazzling light and breathtaking colors. The early departure time for sunrise viewing may be challenging for some and families love touring in the evening. Join us for an equally impressive sunset viewing from the House of the Sun in Haleakala National Park. A fabulous finale to a wonderful Maui vacation.

Highlights

  • Hotel pickup in specially outfitted deluxe minibus with USB ports, video monitors, climate control, and the best windows for viewing the Haleakala landscape.
  • Dormant Volcano Haleakala was formed approximately 1 million years ago through the building up of layers of flowing lava. It has been a sacred location for Polynesian people who settled on the island 400-650 A.D.
  • Haleakala National Park is home to over 1,000 different species of plant life. During the 38-mile ascent you will view the magnificent silver sword plant, found nowhere else on earth, and pass ancient sacred locations, and breathtaking views from the safety and comfort of your vehicle
  • Ranger Station of the Park is at 7,000ft where a convenient rest top is taken, and visitor information is available.
  • Viewing of Maui Sunrise as it rises above the clouds is the climax of the morning. The unforgettable show of light and color bursting into view is a spiritual experience for many. Majestic views from the 9,740ft elevation are unparalleled anywhere. They are so expansive that under especially clear sky conditions other islands may be seen several miles away.
  • Haleakala Visitor Center, constructed in 1936, is a small stone structure on the edge of a cliff. Information, souvenirs, and more. Youll want to spend some time with the welcoming staff that is pleased to share their insights.
  • Descend through the Clouds as you gently glide through the changes in topography, weather, and scenery accompanied by elevation changes.
  • Views of Kula come into focus when approaching the open country slopes of the agricultural land in this rustic region, home to early Portuguese and Chinese immigrant plantation workers.
  • Scenic Upcountry Maui where misty mountain views, rich volcanic soil, and verdant farmland blends with a combination of early settlements and affluent new estates. The sunrise in Maui is truly one of a kind.
  • Breakfast included at Mill House, a local favorite, where you and your newly found friends will enjoy a delicious meal together.
  • Souvenir pamphlet containing facts, Hawaiian cultural information, and more.
  • Hotel return after your memorable morning on fabled Haleakala.
