*Please note that this route does NOT start at the top of Haleakala and requires 2 stops for the van to pick up and drop off at another spot further down the road. Each section is only 6-9 miles long. For anyone that did this self-guided tour 10+ years ago prepare to be shocked and extremely disappointed. It is absolutely not worth the cost and better off to drive the route at leisurely pace and save a bike ride for some other location. The only positive comment is that they do provide all the gear. Our driver/guide was also extremely loud, annoying, shared too much personal info and did not read the room with regards to the general personality of the group that had no interest in his aggressive and frankly insulting manner.

The biking company was very thorough in their safety instructions which was very helpful during the ride. Our guide Remy was quite entertaining and informative about the Island during our van drive. Would definitely recommend this excursion while on the island.
Allison_T
Very good time. Our guide Matice was very knowledgeable and helpful. Felt completely comfortable with the gear, bikes were easy to maneuver downhill. Would highly recommend.
