“This is a Maui must! Des, our guide, was absolutely fantastic! 3 waterfalls, cliff jumping, with lunch included made for a perfect day! Your feet will get wet, wear shoes with a good grip, as the rocks are slippery in areas. The hike itself is not hard. Couple spots where you have to navigate some rock formations, but nothing difficult. Book it and take your friends!”

He cares about his passangers and wants you to have an amazing experience. I would strongly recommend this tour over going with a large group van.”
