What people are saying about Makawao

We had a great time! Lots of amazing sites, a beautiful sunset, and good food at the end. Our driver was friendly and had good historical knowledge, but the one negative, which is why I removed a star, was his driving... He drove very fast around winding turns, and those of us in the very back felt unsafe and somewhat carsick because of how fast he was driving.

Andrea was a fabulous guide and driver. Views were spectacular and thoroughly enjoyed the food and drink at the distillery.
