Small Group Waterfall And Rainforest Hiking Adventure On Maui

Genuinely good value and very gentle walk. Keaton was an awesome guide. Loved swimming in the waterfall pool and would have come back for further hikes if we’d been here longer.

Keylan is an exceptional tour guide who made the experience truly memorable! He is knowledgeable, friendly, and patient, and his passion for his job shines through in the way he guides and interacts with his guests. He shared information with enthusiasm, took the time to answer questions, and made everyone feel comfortable and welcome. What stood out most was how professionally he handled everything while remaining warm and approachable. His care and attention helped us relax and enjoy the tour, and his enthusiasm made the journey just as enjoyable as the places we visited. Thank you, Keylan, for your kindness, patience, and dedication. You made this tour a highlight of my trip, and I would happily recommend you to anyone looking for a wonderful tour experience!

I got a full experience of a rain forest as it rained the whole time which heightened the true experience. Michael was a very knowledgeable naturalist explained and we tasted edible items.

It has rained a lot this year in Maui. The tour operators did not disclose hiking in slippery mud, fairly swift water crossings and hazardous hiking conditions of the trail. 3 miles was not “ an easy-moderate” hike in current trail conditions. Steep, slippery mud. Several people fell. Beautiful but misleading.

Excellent guide. Worth the trip. Amazing

We had the best experience. It was such a fun day and we loved our tour guide Joel. He was full of information very kind and very helpful. We would highly recommend this trip in him again

The activity is challenging but rewarding. There are moments of solitude and peacefulness mixed with opportunities to get the adrenaline pumping. Guides are very knowledgeable and maintain the safety of the group throughout. The commentary on the way and when trekking was informative and engaging. We were very fortunate to have Joel as our guide and his efforts made our experience one to remember.

We had the best time on our Hike Maui Rainforest and Waterfall tour. Our guide Dave (Australian Dave) was so informative and great with my 9yo daughter (the only kid in our group). We were the only group at the first two falls we visited which just made it so special. Tried som strawberry guava and pineapple guava straight from the trees along the way. Just an absolute perfect and fun day! Thanks Dave and Hike Maui!

This trip was so much fun! Our guide, Momo, was so knowledgeable about the area, plants, flowers, fruits, etc. She made sure we had a safe time packing in as much as we could for our adventure, and let us sample things she foraged for us. Highly recommend!

Enrique was fun and knowledgeable! Rough waters didn’t allow any jumping from the waterfalls but Enrique wisely took us plenty of beautiful views! Definitely would recommend!

Alison was our guide and she was amazing! The amount of knowledge she had about the history, the area, the culture, activities… Everything about Maui was amazing. She was fun but very caring. The hike was beyond beautiful. So many gorgeous flowers, interesting fruit, amazing trees, and beautiful waterfalls. This was absolutely the highlight of my Maui trip. Thank you so much!

A must do ,to fully experience the beauty of Maui. Brian stopped several times along the way educating us on various beautiful plants and culture very informative and he was very entertaining as well. The hike was moderate , not strenuous and the waterfalls and pools to swim in were breathtaking. Lunch was thoughtful and delicious and the pace was very comfortable.

Our guide was Brian. He was very thorough on what to expect during this hike. As the tour progressed he was able to show us many plants and even gave us some samples of fruit right off the trees. He shared a wealth of information. The waterfall was the highlight of the tour. We highly recommend this tour!

I cannot begin to say how fantastic this experience was with HikeMaui, and more specifically how fantastic Momo was as a guide. There wasn’t a moment that our group wasn’t learning about some flowers, the trees, the water, or the culture. The knowledge that she shared with us about every piece of the island was beyond impressive, it truly felt as if she had an answer to any question that could have been thrown at her. And more so, her genuine kindness that she possesses is out of this world. From jumping straight into the water to retrieve a lost phone the moment she was aware of it, to holding a young girls hand almost the whole trek, to extending a hand and a good tip or trick to everyone at every difficult crossing or climb, the stellar human that she is just truly couldn’t be ignored. If there was anyone who could bring the mana out of Hawaii and truly solidify my groups love and respect for Maui, it was absolutely her. Thank you Momo for being such a lasting part of our time on your beautiful island. 12/10 will recommend this hike to anyone I know coming your way.

We had the most wonderful experience hiking the rainforest with Mirna/Hike Maui! It was the perfect mix of hiking the trail, stopping for swimming, and learning about our surroundings. Our guide Mirna was fantastic. She was so helpful, knowledgeable, and patient and she led us at the perfect pace. We got to learn a bit about the plants and flowers around us, took in the beauty of the rainforest, and stopped and swam (and did some cliff jumping!) at beautiful waterfalls. The van we drove in was clean and comfortable and the supplies Hike Maui provided were great. This hike was a hit with the whole family, which includes two teenagers. When does that happen?? :) Hike Maui and Mirna get our highest recommendation!

Our tour guide Brian was wonderful and very informative. He took us off the regular path that only tour guides have access to.

Great guide, Momo was the best. Entire staff great to work with and teadily assisted with all our needs.

Grayson was our guide and he was Awesome! Shared his knowledge of all the flaura and fauna along the way. Waterfalls were exceptional and private to Maui hikes. One thing that Maui hikes did not make us aware of is there is a changing room in the parking area so bring dry clothes for your ride home! Water shoes or sneakers was all you needed. Bring your own bug spray! They provide for you so you may want to take 1 per person, but you may need more! Don’t let a few mosquitos keep you from this adventure. It was Awesome!

Amazing experience. Our guide Grayson was fantastic. Highly recommend this tour!

I enjoyed seeing all the different trees and plants. The waterfalls were gorgeous and the hike, although challenging at times, was always interesting, as was our guide, Marko.

Intense hike through the rainforest near twin falls in Maui. We saw six waterfalls enjoying the perfect water and day. Saw tons of flora along the way and our guide was very knowledgeable.

Amazing expierience. Mick was a fantastic, informative guide. Perfect day admiring the beauty of Maui!

Naomi shared a lot of interesting information throughout the hike and her passion is evident. She kept the participants engaged and was a delight! It was a great experience!

My mom and I went with our 7 and 8 year old. Our guide Grayson was very knowledgeable telling us everything there was about Hawaii, plants and random cool things to know. But the best part was how great he was at answering all of our girls questions and they had many questions about everything!!! He was very patient and kind, explaining everything (multiple times sometimes) and encouraging them out of their comfort zones. Overall unforgettable experience, we made a ton of great memories doing this as a family. The company Hike Maui was extremely professional and courteous calling me when I forgot to pick out the hike meals ahead of time. I would recommend bringing clothes you don’t mind getting dirty and water shoes if you have them, but regardless this is an absolute must on your trip to Maui!

We had a great time and our guide, Angela Dusenberry was awesome! She was informative, personable and very knowledgeable! The scenery and waterfalls were beautiful!

My family and I had a private tour with Mick and it was the highlight of our trip! He was incredibly knowledgeable about the path, the flora and fauna, and helped us understand the history of the region. He was also incredibly kind and patient with my 80 year old dad who was on the hike. Super great guy and I highly recommend this tour for the incredible hike and waterfall swimming!

Abby was our Tour Guide and she was absolutely amazing! She gave us great information about the history of maui. She made the tour interesting, fun and allowed our Family to enjoy nature! My Family had the best time! I highly suggest Hike Maui and Abby as a Tour Guide.

We had a great time! Momo was a fantastic guide. She shared so much knowledge about the rainforest. We even tasted several flowers. The waterfall was beautiful. I would highly recommend an experience with Hike Maui!

We went with Mick as our guide and he was great! Super informative and learned a lot about Hawaiian history! Mick was also super fun, encouraging (as I was scared of the 15ft cliff jump) and very patient! We had a variety of skill levels and still had an awesome time. Highly recommend! The rainforest is BEAUTIFUL !

Perfect experience for a few hours at Twin Falls- plenty of hiking through a stunning rain forest and unforgettable swim at the base of the a waterfall. But what made this experience truly special was our guide Mirna- she had so much knowledge of the local plants and wildlife. She also was incredibly patient with our rambunctious little one. They do provide water , snacks and bug spray. Also back packs and ponchos if needed. Highly recommend to bring a wet bag for wet clothes, a change of clothes, a towel flip flops to change in and your own rain jacket. For reference, I hiked and swam in water shoes with a tread and was perfectly fine.

This was our second activity with Hike Maui we also did the crater hike. I would definitely recommend this hike. Hike Maui does an amazing job and I can’t say enough about our guide Joel. He’s extremely knowledgeable about the area and the plant life. You will take a hike through the rainforest where Joel takes you through a history of the forest and area while also sampling native fruits and flowers right off the vine. You visit various waterfalls and fresh water pools where you can swim and even do a little cliff jumping. I would say the hike is moderately difficult the most challenging part is navigating through some fresh water steams over slippery rocks and depending on the season some muddy trails. Hike Maui provides plenty of snack as well as lunch sandwiches a variety of chips fresh fruit and nuts. Joel also had backpacks, ponchos and bug spray for everyone. Bring water shoes or sneakers with good treads. I wore my trail running shoes and they were perfect. Make sure to take a hiking stick they offer at the start of the tour they are free to use and it definitely comes in handy. Helpful items to bring would be water, and a towel if you plan on swimming. There are restrooms and an area to fill water bottles at the start of the hike after that find a bush if needed. I would definitely recommend booking this tour especially with Hike Maui they get access to areas not open to the general public which makes it a more enjoyable. Also if you have any concerns about snakes or creepy crawlers I have good news Hawaii has no snakes or poisonous bugs or spiders. Take this tour you won’t regret it.

The experience was incredible. They picked us up from the Ritz (which is about the most isolated hotel on the island), and picked up other folks along the way. About 10-12 or so people per tour, so it's intimate enough to feel special. Our guide Kaden was awesome and super knowledgeable. He took extra care to make sure one of the older ladies on the tour felt safe and could navigate some of the tougher parts (she had acl surgery a few months ago, so was a little uneasy through a few parts). He was also an eagle eye, spotting small lizards, a wild pineapple, and other fauna and flora we would have missed otherwise. It was not only a hike, but also a bit of a history lesson, which we always appreciate. The hike itself was about 4 hours. We stopped a couple of times for swimming and rock jumping. They provided a sandwich, chips and water for lunch. They even had backpacks to move our stuff to so we wouldn't ruin ours. Next time we come to Maui, we're definitely booking with them again.

Our guide was with Kaden, and he was awesome! He did a great job pointing out different kinds of plants and was very informative. The hike itself wasn't too difficult, the only times I slipped were when I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking (the scenery is too beautiful). It was only around 4-5 hours and wasn't too hot since we were in the shade pretty much all day. We saw a few waterfalls and my boyfriend got to jump off a rock into a small pool. This was one of the last things we did in Maui and it was a great way to end the trip!

We did our hike with Mick and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Maui and told lots of great stories. He was patient and very friendly. He took great photos and the most beautiful spots for all the families in the group. Thank you Mick for making our vacation to Maui an unforgettable one.

Our rainforest and waterfall hike in Maui was absolutely magical, and we have Dave, our Australian guide, to thank for making it unforgettable. His knowledge of the local flora was impressive—he pointed out plants and trees we never would have noticed on our own and explained their significance with genuine passion. But what really made the difference was his kindness and attentiveness to our group throughout the entire hike. He made sure we felt safe navigating the trails, and when we reached the waterfall for our swim, he created such a welcoming atmosphere that we could just relax and soak in the beauty of the moment. The combination of the lush, vibrant rainforest, the refreshing waterfall pool, and his wonderful guidance made for a day we'll never forget. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Maui who wants an authentic, enriching nature experience.

This was one of the best excursions I’ve ever done. Our guide was Joel, and he was so knowledgeable of the island and nature surrounding us. He was nice enough to give us tips on other things to do while in Maui. I highly recommend this adventure!

Alison was great! Very knowledgeable and showed us a great time.

Our family had a wonderful rainforest adventure with Hike Maui. Our guide, Naomi, was super friendly and very knowledgeable. We had a 59 year old, two 42 year olds, and a 16 year old in our group, and everyone felt safe and comfortable hiking, swimming, and jumping into the water. The excursion was very reasonably priced, we had a full 3.5 hours of fun, and would highly recommend this activity for anyone!

Great experience made more gun with Dave! Highly recommend!!

We did this hike in 2022 and loved it. We redid it in 2026 and had an even better time, somehow. Definitely would recommend!

Amazing! Our guides, Naomi and Jez were an amazing team who made our family trip fun and importantly safe. They were so attentive but let us explore. It was fun. Some of us went into the waterfalls and some jumped into the water. They showed knowledge and their care of the eco environment. Our age range from teens to 70’s and everyone unanimously agreed that it was great experience. Highly recommended. Thanks!!

This tour was an absolute highlight of our Maui vacation! Our tour guide Joel was so knowledgeable and fun. He let us try fruits and flowers that were edible along the way as we adventured to 3 waterfalls to jump and swim in. Hike Maui has access to secluded areas, so we were the only people at each stop at times. They provided all of the essentials we needed for a great day - lunch, snacks, bug spray, etc. Other groups weren’t doing the exact same path, and the tour felt “custom” to an extent; I’d return to do the tour again for sure!

Our waterfall hike was truly exceptional and one of the most memorable experiences of our trip. The scenery was breathtaking, and the opportunity to hike through the rainforest and jump into waterfalls made for an unforgettable adventure. What really made the experience stand out was our guide, who was knowledgeable, engaging, and made everyone feel safe and comfortable throughout the excursion. Their passion and enthusiasm added so much to the day. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun, active, and uniquely Hawaiian experience! 🌿💦🌺

We did the waterfalls hike with Allison as our guide. Allison was amazing -- a super-chill surfer-girl turned botanist, naturalist and historian! She was an endless font of interesting information on the flora, fauna, history and current culture of Hawaii. Her enthusiasm and love for Hawaii is contagious ---even to my two teenagers! When I booked this trip, I was wondering if I could do these hikes on my own and find these waterfalls. The waterfalls seem to be partially on private land. It's not totally clear what parts are private and what parts are public. But it doesn't matter, because even if it was all on public land there is NO WAY I could find these sites. The trails are completely unmarked. Additionally, Allison advised us on what was safe and what was not safe. We went after a day of heavy rains so some of the sites were not safe for cliff-jumping or going into the water. We enjoyed it all just the same. The sites were very beautiful, particularly the site called "The Cave" which is a waterfall that goes over a large cave beneath it. A great trip!! Thank you Allison!

Very cool experience! We enjoyed learning about different plants in the area, and we got to see and swim in waterfalls.

It’s really fun. It’s climbing over big tree roots, across rivers with strong currents, and down the side of small hills rocks, I. 57&my bestie is 58 and we did it! Our guide MoMo was just fantastic and so full of knowledge in anything about the islands. Very helpful and kind as can be.

Beautiful excursion! Our guide was great, and we got to see some really interesting places and things!

Such a wonderful hike. Angela was an energetic, friendly and all around great tour guide. The falls were fantastic and the opportunity to swim at two falls- incoming a cliff jump (when conditions allow). Learned so much of the history and nature of Maui and also got to taste a few “natural” treats along the hike. They supply each person with a backpack, lunch, poncho and insect repellant (but we didn’t need it). Highly suggest this tour/hike and Angela.

I love to hike, so overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this wet, muddy, slippery hike! I am height-challenged, so there were a few spots where I needed assistance to climb over large fallen tree trunks and step up/down in some spots, but I'm accustomed to this type of challenge & it has yet to stop me from continuing to hike. I highly recommend wearing water-resistant hiking shoes or carry a pair of water shoes to switch into for the waterfalls. Women intending to enter the water should consider wearing a two-piece swimsuit under hiking clothes because it's too dirty in the port-a-potties to pull off exterior clothing & pull-down a one-piece swimsuit to use the facility! Our guide, Grayson, took great care of us in the group and made this hike both educational & entertaining.
