The van eases onto the first bend and the island begins to rearrange itself: sugarcane fields fall away, ocean cliffs open like paper, and the road leans into a sequence of hairpin turns that demand your attention. On the Private Road to Hana tour you sit back in a comfortable, climate-controlled seat while a local guide pilots a luxury vehicle through 620 hairpin turns and across 59 mostly one-lane bridges — the ribbon of pavement that has drawn curious drivers for a century.
