If you’re looking for something truly unique and fascinating in Maui, do not miss Maui Stargazing! I have done many excursions over the years, both land and sea on Maui and this is one of my top two … Full review by Samantha T
I'm not understanding the price of this tour when one is required to drive themselves up and back. Safety wise, it defeats the purpose of a 'tour' and there is no way that the knowledge equates to $225 pp. Others have questioned the price in the past which includes the Mercedes RT etc. This is highway robbery.

Guests meet at the Kula Lodge and board sprinter van for this 6 hour afternoon into evening sunset and stargazing tour of Haleakala’s National Park. Your guide sets up a large telescope and shows galaxies, nebulas and star clusters and points out the constellations and points of interest in the night sky.
I don’t know as I haven’t done the Hyatt Stargazing. However, I had a fabulous time with Maui Stargazing. She’s the real deal. No app - she knows the stars and planets

The equipment, telescope, Mercedes Benz shuttle, monitor, video, coats and snow pants for each passenger are obviously expensive. The tour includes admission to the state park, …
The equipment, telescope, Mercedes Benz shuttle, monitor, video, coats and snow pants for each passenger are obviously expensive. The tour includes admission to the state park, a chauffeur who knows the roads, the best views, a guide who shares her amazing knowledge of the stars, planets, galaxy. Better than the price of a ticket to Disneyland.

no; actually it was quite cloudy at times the night we were there; fortunately clouds broke some and we were able to see lots of star formations. the tour guide was very good at locating stars with the telescope and we had a great time.
Is the altitude a problem? My wife is concerned about potential altitude sickness. How many people have had issues with the altitude on this tour?
A:
My husband is very sensitive to altitude and didn’t have any trouble on this tour. There is no exertion, so that might help. Also, you can feel free to drink plenty of water because …
My husband is very sensitive to altitude and didn’t have any trouble on this tour. There is no exertion, so that might help. Also, you can feel free to drink plenty of water because the tour guide plans bathroom stops at frequent intervals. I think that helps a lot too.
