Select participants and date
You step into the van before sunrise and the island is still rubbing sleep from its eyes — sugarcane silhouettes against a brightening sky, the ocean pushing itself toward the cliffs like a dare. The Road to Hana unfolds as a living map: 52 miles of coast, 640 curves and turns, and 59 single-lane bridges that ask for patience as much as attention. This is less a highway than a slow-motion nature documentary in which waterfalls insist you pause and black sand beaches demand you take off your shoes.
