Aloha Uncle Charlie. Uncle Charlie, I was up at Haleakala that morning with you. I find myself chanting E Ala E to the sun here in Lanikai, Kailua, Oahu. I enjoyed myself.

Maui has offered naturalist-led

Hike Maui hiking Maui eco tour adventure: walking, whale watching, snorkeling, kayaking and birding for your Hawaii vacation Called the "grandfather of ecotourism," Hike Maui has offered naturalist-led hikes into Maui's wilderness since 1983. Our Hikes Our Story Our Guides Best of Maui Comments & Articles Common Questions Information, Contact Us Store Map & Directions Why Hike Maui? Experience We're the oldest, most experienced hiking company in the state. We are the wilderness experts. We started by living off the land in Maui's jungle in the early 1980s (read " Our Story "). Now we have ten big, expensive vans, way too much insurance and fifteen very knowledgeable hiking guides. Best Guides Described as "walking encyclopedias," our guides are considered the best on Maui (read " Our Guides "). They include: a marine biologist a professor of ethnobotany and botany two (former) national park rangers an expert on whales, dolphins and turtles two wildlife biologists a (former) physics teacher Safety In two decades, we've never had a major mishap. All guides are CPR and First Aid certified. Permits & Licenses We have permits and permission to hike to more places on public and private lands than any other Maui tour company. Favorite Quotes from a stack of articles: " All of (Hike Maui's) guides seem to be encyclopedias in hiking boots." Honolulu Magazine " Back at the Hike Maui van, one man said, 'This has been a great day. In fact, it has been the best day of my entire life.'" Travel & Leisure Magazine " Nothing is overlooked on (Hike Maui's) hikes." Los Angeles Times " Among the most incredible adventures to be experienced on Maui..."
