6 Maui Tours to Book for Your Next Trip

1. Maui ATV Tours

If you enjoy adventure on wheels, then an ATV (all-terrain vehicle) Tour would be a great idea when you are in Maui. At Adventure Maui ATV tours are one of many mountain activities you can do. This 1.5-to-2-hour tour runs all week except on Sundays. This trail leads you into the Maui west mountains where you will see magnificent waterfalls from a distance, and travel along the Pacific Ocean with spectacular views. Goggles and helmets are provided, and you must be at the starting point at either 8:15 AM or 12:15 PM.

This tour will cost you $180 per single driver, $210 per side-by-side driver and $130 per passenger excluding tax.

2. Maui Pineapple Tour

The Maui Gold Pineapple Tour brings visitors to experience the last working pineapple operation in the Maui Gold Plantation. The tour will begin in the pineapple fields in an air-conditioned vehicle where guides explain the growing and harvesting cycle and show you how they still cultivate the fruit by hand. You are allowed to taste the stages of fruit as you learn them about them.

After the tour through the plantation, you are taken on a guided tour to the processing factory where they show you how the pineapples are tested, sorted and then packaged for sale. At the end you are given a boxed Maui Gold pineapple as a gift to take home with you.

The tour is one and a half hours, and anyone aged three and older can do the tour. When booking directly at Maui Pineapple Tours, tickets are $75 per person, making it a fun and affordable outing for the family.

3. Maui Helicopter Tours

There’s nothing quite like the thrill of a trip in a helicopter, especially when you get to see the beautiful Maui Island from the sky. When it comes to helicopter tours, there are many sites offering various flight options.

With Air Maui can you choose from a variety of options:

  • There are three different 45-minute flight options that offer the following: Doors-Off West Maui and Molokai for $304 per person, the Hana & Haleakala flight at $252 per person or the special flight to West Maui and Molokai for $252.

4. Maui Snorkeling Tours

If you’d like to do something different, then a snorkeling tour is a must for your to-do list in Maui. You could of course snorkel in the surf on your own but going on one of Maui Snorkeling Tours will be well worth it.

On this tour you will board a 53-foot state of the art vessel that can accommodate up to 65 people. Not only do you get to enjoy snorkeling, but you will also see whales and other marine life such as sea turtles.

Snorkel, swim and slide into the ocean and enjoy a fun day in the sun. The Maui Snorkeling tour is all inclusive and you get meals, snacks, beverages, high quality snorkels, fins and optical masks and floatation belts. This tour also offers glass-bottom boogie boards, a 25-foot water slide, swim noodles and plenty of jumping platforms.

There is a 5-hour tour in the morning that costs $168 per adult and a 3-hour tour in the afternoon for a cheaper price of $99 per adult. Kids under the age of four are free of charge.

5. Maui Whale Watching Tours

Whale watching season in Maui is between November and May, with peak season occurring from mid-January to March. If you’ve dreamed of seeing whales in their natural environment, then this is the perfect tour for you.

Although Humpback whales are the most common, you will likely see other species such as the melon-headed whale, short-finned pilot, pygmy and endangered false killer whales. And don’t worry about identifying the whales you see, because the expert marine guides will identify them for you.

At Pacific Whale there are a variety of tours to choose from. Tours depart from the Lahaina Harbor or the Ma’Alaea Harbor and will cost between $69.95 to $119.95, depending on inclusions and add-ons.
