Cycle, surf, sea kayak and hike the tropical island of Maui over 6 active days. Referred to by Hawaiians as the “Valley Isle”, the tropical Maui valley connects two of the world’s largest volcanoes into one island cycling paradise. Inside Maui’s 120 miles of coastline, you'll experience a surprising range of microclimates, from exotic gardens to rain shadow drylands, from sandy lagoons to snowy summits. The cycling tour of the island loops around the valley nestled between two sleeping giants, Puu Kukui caldera to the West, and Mt. Haleakala to the East.
With over 20 ecosystems and lots of hills, cycling here is always an adventure. One minute you’ll be riding through lush tropical rainforest, and the next you’ll turn the corner onto a huge, sunny lava flow, or drop down onto a private peninsula for some fresh, hot Hawaiian banana bread.
Challenging climbing and exhilarating descents await as you explore Maui’s mountainous back roads by bike. Surfing lessons and a sea kayaking tour, both appropriate for beginners, allow you to broaden your experience, while hiking gives you a chance to see this beautiful landscape close-up. Join this tour for the perfect multi-sport getaway to this adventurous and tropical isle.
The people on the island are just as diverse. Evenings are filled with the sights and scents of real island hospitality, where you will be pampered with islands feasts, luaus, and hula dancing, while staying in your own oceanside ohanas (private beach houses).
This tour combines extraordinarily scenic cycling with great hiking, sea kayaking and even surfing, to pack the best Maui has to offer into an active, yet relaxing week-long Hawaiian retreat. This tour is suitable for active travelers and is also open to families with older children, although do be aware of the challenging climbs and long distances as detailed in the itinerary.
