A New Beginning After Maui
This project also represents a deeply personal new chapter.
My name is Marcus Perry and before starting Leavenworth Alpine Tours, I owned and operated Hoaloha Jeep Adventures in Lahaina, Maui. Our tours shared the beauty of Maui’s landscapes with visitors from around the world.
In August 2023, the devastating Lahaina wildfire destroyed much of the town and forced the closure of many local businesses, including mine. Losing that business—and the community surrounding it—was incredibly difficult.
But adventure has always been at the heart of what I do.
Leavenworth offers an incredible opportunity to begin again. The town already welcomes travelers from all over the world for its Bavarian charm and alpine scenery, yet there are currently no dedicated Jeep tour experiences exploring the surrounding mountains. With Leavenworth Alpine Tours, I’m excited to bring the same spirit of adventure and guided exploration to the Cascade Mountains.
This is more than a business—it’s a fresh start and a chance to build something special in a place that celebrates mountain adventure.
What Your Support Will Help Fund
Your support will help launch Leavenworth Alpine Tours and prepare everything needed to offer safe and memorable Jeep adventures. Funding will go toward:
- Preparing and outfitting the Jeep for guided alpine tours
- Safety equipment and passenger gear
- Business operating expenses
- Marketing and booking systems
Every contribution helps bring this unique adventure experience to life.
Why This Project Matters
Leavenworth attracts visitors year‑round for its festivals, alpine views, and Bavarian culture. However, many of the most spectacular locations surrounding the village are only accessible by rugged forest roads and backcountry trails.
Leavenworth Alpine Tours will give visitors a new way to experience the Cascades by combining:
- The charm of the Bavarian village
- Guided off‑road exploration
- Hidden viewpoints and alpine landscapes
- Small‑group personalized adventures
Guests will leave the busy streets of the village and discover the dramatic wilderness that surrounds it.
