VIE’s Classic Hana Picnic is one of the highlights of the trip because it allows you to sit back, relax and just savor the sumptuous spread, without a care in the world. Depending on the crowd density and weather conditions, your guide will choose from our many quaint lunch locations.
VIE’s guides make every effort to maximize your “fun time” on the tour by not wasting any. It ‘eats up’ our day (pun intended ;) if we have to order, then wait for lunch to be served and eaten at a local restaurant. And, if it’s crowded on the highway that day it doesn’t matter because our lunch is served just moments after our arrival. No lines. No reservations needed. No worries!
Plus, doesn’t the Road to Hana just make you want to be outdoors as much as possible? Of course! And, could the views get any better? Nah, not a chance.
Our Kahului-based commercial caterer carefully prepares and packs your group’s picnic based on individual needs (vegetarian, gluten-free options) giving greater flexibility to stop when and where it’s best. Throughout the day the there will be many options to savor the local flavors from roadside stands and markets. Your health and safety is of utmost importance to us so your guide will share tips about washing tropical fruits and stop at only reputable places.
