Upcountry Day Tour

The term "upcountry" is commonly used to describe Maui's 3 main towns that are located up the mountain. With this tour we highlight the golden spots of Maui's countryside, most don't even know exist. This tour typically begins between 9am-10am and is usually over between 2pm-4pm depending on stops desired. Like all of our other tours the “Upcountry Day tour” is completely customizable.

We typically begin the day with a visit to the Ali'i lavender farm, where you can find pretty much anything and everything made from Lavender. Then we make our way to the Maui Winery in the very scenic and historic Ulupalakua area. After tasting the Maui wines made on sight, we travel to breathtaking Kula Farms to soak in the views. The organic produce there is grown year-round, but if the season is right, you can pick fresh Kula Strawberries for a small fee. Next we make our way to one of our personal favorite, "The Surfing Goat Dairy" to get some fresh exotic cheeses and gifts. Directly next door to the dairy is the “Ocean Vodka” distillery that offers tours by the hour. They have also recently started making rum, which is called "Wave". This stop can be substituted with another vodka distillery down the hill called “PAU Vodka.” It also offers a very informative look into the distilling process of multiple spirits. From there we make our way to historic Makawao town for a bite to eat at a local cafe or bistro, and if we are lucky enough, a donut on stick from the 100 year old bakery.
