This guided tour was absolutely phenomenal. If you plan to drive the road to Hana, THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST. I do NOT recommend doing the drive without this! Informative but also perfect navigation. But absolutely make reservations before going or you’ll get 2 hours in and realize you can’t get into some of the coolest spots to see.
Wow amazing content

We took the Original route and came back the same way. The tour was fabulous, entertaining and help us through when we had no cell service. It was a must have and learned a few things along the way. The guide was very knowledgeable and easy to listen to. I would highly recommend
Perfect!

What an amazing way to tour the road to Hana! It was so informative and I can’t imagine doing it without the virtual tour guide (whom we affectionately named Mr Ben Hana). Well worth every penny!
Very helpful
