Haleakala Sunset & Stargazing Tour
Rising 3,055 meters (10,023 feet) above Maui, the volcano Haleakalā offers an awe-inspiring vantage point above the clouds. From the summit, witness a golden sunset spilling across a vast sea of clouds, followed by the profound stillness of night beneath a brilliant, star-filled sky. Allow us to guide you into a dreamlike and deeply moving experience found only on the island of Maui.
Sit in comfort as our expert driver navigates the winding roads safely up the mountain. After the sun sets, gaze through our premium telescope equipped with GPS to help find any constellation and planet. Enjoy one of the best vantage points in the world for stargazing with clearer skies on top of Haleakala, more than 10,000 feet tall.
Highlights:
- Enter the Haleakala National Park at an elevation of 2,100 meters.
- Take in a spectacular 360° sunset, viewed through powerful binocular telescopes from the summit at 3,055 meters (10,023 feet) above sea level.
- As night gently settles in and the stars illuminate the sky, the stargazing tour begins. With the aid of a large GPS-guided telescope, astronomy binoculars, and a laser pointer, guests are invited to explore the wonders of the night sky in an unforgettable celestial experience.
