If you've already seen Maui’s beaches and are looking for a different adventure, take a day trip to discover some of the island’s more off-the-beaten-path gems. Awaken your senses on this 9-hour, small-group trip to Haleakala National Park, as well as a lavender farm and a winery. Travel aboard a luxurious and comfortable limo-van with a maximum of eight passengers.
After pickup from your hotel in the morning, drive to Pa'ia for a light morning snack. Then, enjoy a leisurely drive to Haleakala National Park, home to ‘The House of the Sun’ -- a dormant volcano and the tallest peak on Maui. Arrive at the visitor’s center at the 10,023-foot (3,055-m) summit and take in breathtaking panoramic views of the crater. From Pu’u Ula Ula (Red Hill), admire 360-degree views of the Big Island, West Maui, Lanai and Molokai.
Next, descend into the serene gardens of the Maui Lavender farm. Explore the fields of lavender that grow year-round and let the fresh, invigorating fragrance fill your senses and lift your spirit. After touring the farm, feel free to visit the gift shop that sells more than 75 lavender products made directly from the gardens.
At the farm, enjoy a delectable Pacific Rim lunch as you hear about the mystical side of lavender. Served on linen table cloths, lunch includes hibachi-grilled chicken, fresh mahimahi, fruits and more. A sample menu can be found in the Itinerary section.
Continue past rolling green pastures, serene mountain vistas and beautiful seascapes to Ulupalakua Ranch, where Tedeschi Vineyards is located. This historic ranch was visited by King Kalakaua and Queen Kapi’olani in 1874 and was famed for its hospitality and agricultural prowess. Here, visit the tasting room, formerly the king’s cottage, where you’ll taste a variety of wines. Sample the winery's signature pineapple wine; taste some Ulupalakua wine, a beautiful blend of merlot and Syrah; and savor a lovely sparkling blush wine.
Lastly, visit the Hawaiian paniolo (cowboy) town of Makawao. Enjoy ample time to take a stroll and explore this historic place at your leisure. Visit Viewpoints Gallery, operated exclusively by Maui artists; Hot Island Glass, the only glass-blowing studio on Maui; or any of the various locally owned shops.
Afterward, you’ll be taken back to your hotel at approximately 5pm.
