The drive on the Road to Hana was pretty intense -- especially on the way back as we ended up driving at night and caught pockets of rain showers too! Fortunately we didn't encounter any situations with local drivers being impatient with visitors like us -- though we'd understand if they did as visitors are the main cause of delay and congestion on the main road to and from the east side of the island.

Maui is such a magical place. Spent 10 days there and it just wasn't enough. My favorite was probably the hidden red sand beach on the way to Hana.

It was so sad to say goodbye. I can't wait to return. Planned on going again this August but we chose to cancel our summer vacations to Aruba and Maui this year because of the Covid.

Do you prefer to relax and unwind and take it easy or would you rather jam pack your days from morning till night to sightsee as much as possible? If you're more the latter, than our videos and the itinerary we did reflect a holiday across 4 islands in 2 weeks, but if you are the former, than 2 weeks on 2 islands should give you a really nice time experiencing the beauty and charms of the Hawaiian Islands. If you decide on 2 islands in 2 weeks, now you'll just have to decide which other island to visit! Let us know what you end up deciding! 🤗

We stayed at both the Courtyard by Marriott near Kahului Airport (central-ish location to get an early start for the Road to Hana) and the Residence Inn by Marriott Maui Wailea (a pick up option for the early morning Skyline Eco-Adventures round-trip transportation to Haleakala). Hope this response is helpful! 😄

Good job - loved your adventures. I think that the term “Seven Sacred Pools” is not a real Hawaiian name for the Pools of O’heo, but some travel agencies’ name for it to drum up business and so the name has stuck. I enjoyed your summary of the trip too, and they were all things I would have mentioned (especially the cold at the top of Haleakala!). Also, at certain times of the year, Honolua Bay has the best snorkeling that Maui has to offer. You have to swim out to the left or to the right out further from back of the bay. I’ll be looking for your further adventures. Thanks

Hi Corberosa Premium Coffee- thank you for checking out our video and sharing your comment with us! We completely agree that more time should be spent on Maui better experience the pono. (Are we using the context of pono correctly here? It's such a beautiful word with multiple meaning want to make sure we use it properly.) For our first ever visit to the state of Hawaii, we only had 2 weeks and decided that for us we would like to get a high level exposure to various islands. Our hope is to return in the future to dedicate more than just the 2-4 days we spent per island, stay longer, and have a more “slow” immersive visit to better soak in the magical experiences each island has to offer. We’re aware that this form of “rushing around" doesn’t suit everyone’s travel style nor is it the ideal. There is still many ways we can improve and explore different methods of traveling to new and previous destinations while also remaining aware that there are myriad subjective ways of doing so based on individual preferences. Thanks again for taking the time to watch our video and we appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment. Hope you have a joy-filled day!

GREAT - THANS GUYS

You did a LOT in 4 days!!! IMHO, the best way to experience any of the Hawaiian islands is to plan to spend more time and get to know the culture. No hurry; easy does it; get kissed by the sun; let the sound of the waves lull you to sleep:) Another lovely attraction on Maui is iao valley (eeeow). It's a lush tropical venue and the iao needle has a great story to tell. For visitors who have time, DO take the Expeditions Ferry from Lahaina to Lanai (my island) and plan to spend some time snorkeling at Hulopoe Beach and taking a taxi/shuttle up to Lanai City, a lovely, quaint plantation town where you can dine (Blue Ginger is where most of the locals go) and browse through the art gallery and a few shops. Mahalo and aloha:)

Hi Margie, thank you so, so, so much for these lovely suggestions on how to experience Maui & Lanai with more time on the island. We completely agree with you that more time spent on each island is ideal to better know the culture, landscape, and treasures of each place. For our first ever travel to the Hawaiian Islands, we felt that visiting multiple islands in one 2-week trip would suit us since we were quite sure that we'd come back in the future to spend dedicated time on each island for a longer period of time. And after our 2-weeks there and from all the lovely comments we've received, like yours, we certainly know that we have to come back and take our time and relish the beauty each island has to offer. We really appreciate you sharing recommendations for visiting Iao Valley and Lanai and thank you again for checking out our video! :)

Any tips for first time flyers to Maui? I’ve never been on a plane and a bit scared of the unknown.

For the kalahaku overlook do you need to hike to see it or can you drive and see it from the parking lot

Glad you had time to do so much and still have some places to explore next time. Make sure you go to Tin Roof for lunch (I recommend ordering ahead online, then taking it to Ho'okipa for a windy picnic while watching the windsurfers) and Leodas for pie! Also highly recommend Ali'i Kula Lavender Farm and the rest of Upcountry for a cool, peaceful, beautiful interlude.

Hi Marsimone1! Thanks for returning and watching the Maui video. We should probably try pineapple on pizza in NYC, but I'm afraid that it won't taste as good as the one we had in Maui. 😬 It's helpful to know that you're interested in knowing the cost for the meals and treats. We'll think about how to incorporate that. Appreciate the feedback!

Hey and thanks for the reach out and appreciate the kind words! Right now we use a Lumix GH5, Gopro 7 and our iphones and edit via Imovie.. Don't use any gimbals or tripods, we just manage by holding it in hand. All we do is try our best to make the pans or zooms as smooth and slow as possible. Little tricks like holding your breath or using your camera strap to help stabilize the camera helps wonders (google is your best friend here!). With anything practices helps alot! We have alot more improving to do but over time you'll get better!

Hi Roswell, we left around 8AM to get started on our drive for the Road to Hana. We read and also heard from locals and others visitors alike, that if you are choosing to do the whole road trip and back in 1 day then the earlier you can get on the road the better. (There is considerable amount of traffic that we hit when we were approaching the town of Paia -- something worth keeping in mind when you're figuring out your timing). Hope that helps! And hope you have a most wonderful trip to Maui later this summer! Let us know how it goes and if you do anything we did or if there things we ought to try for a future visit! :)

Hi M L, thanks for checking out our video and sharing your question with us -- it's a really good one and has us a bit stumped, to be honest. We really enjoyed the variety of food that we tried on the different islands we visited. For the most part, if you enjoy seafood, you can't go wrong as most of it is fresh and locally caught! As for overhyped travel tips -- we're having a hard time pinpointing anything in particular. But two things that come to mind are to be prepared for the weather. Various islands have such diverse ecological zones (from mountains, deserts, tundra-like environments, rainforests, etc.) that we should have paid more attention to tips about packing for all weathers. If you decide to go to the top of Haleakala on Maui for the sunrise, locals and visitors alike do not joke when they write about how cold it is up there -- it is freezing. We would certainly have worn more layers to stay warm and then peel them off as the day progressed. Also, having more water-resistant or water-proof clothing would have been helpful too as we often got caught in unexpected torrential rain storms (again due to the unique ecosystems each island possesses it creates fluctuating weather patterns, at least in our experience when we visited in the Autumn season.) Sorry that this doesn't directly answer your question, but hope that it's helpful nonetheless! Thanks again for taking the time to watch our video and to reach out! :)

I’m leaving in September to Maui, from watching you guys eat everything from Banana Bread to Garlic Noodles... did you gain weight? We are on the Keto Diet and over half of what you guys ate... we could not if we strictly followed the diet. Where did you stay and how much would you budget for 7 days there? Thanks, Dave

@PrestonKrista

5 жыл бұрын

Hi Dave, Thanks for checking out our video in preparation for your upcoming trip to Maui in September. We ourselves are not practitioners of the Keto Diet or any specific diet, but Maui has a variety of food establishments and we wouldn't be surprised if there places that specifically catered to those who follow Keto or have Keto options. We try to balance out eating with physical activity like walking, hiking, swimming while on a trip, so hard to remember at that point in time whether we gained weight after the trip. As for budgets, it really depends on each individual and how they like to travel (budget, relaxing, action-packed, luxury, etc.) so hard to give you a numeric range. For our accommodations, We stayed at both the Courtyard by Marriott near Kahului Airport (central-ish location to get an early start for the Road to Hana) and the Residence Inn by Marriott Maui Wailea (a pick up option for the early morning Skyline Eco-Adventures round-trip transportation to Haleakala). Hope this response is helpful!

Hi Michael, thank you for checking out our video! Driving the Road to Hana is not dangerous (though Highway 340 on the northwest side of Maui is quite tricky and we don't advise driving it -- we saw a couple getting their car towed from off the side of the very narrow road). While the Road to Hana is a single two-way road that does have a lot of tight pin curves, if you are a cautious driver and adhere to the speed limits, then it can be rather fun. There may be others who try to rubber-neck you and go around you, if that happens, let them pass you and be on their way as you take your time to enjoy the journey on the Road. Having cash handy is always a good idea. :) Hope that helps and hope you have fun and safe travels for your upcoming trip to Maui!

​@@auntyuber5127 We appreciate you sharing your opinions, though do not appreciate being called liars. Michael Scott asked us our opinions and we're only relaying our experience when we traveled along to the Road to Hana. The decision to take our opinions and act on them is completely up to him, though we hope that our video and from others on KZread can be a resource to decide whether or not to try something (That's what we did before we planned our trip and was actually one of thee reasons we started our own channel to see if sharing our experiences can be potentially helpful.) In comparison to another road we drove on (which we mentioned in our initial comment to Michael), based on our opinions, Road to Hana was not dangerous (maybe tedious to drive on if you try to do the whole thing in one shot without stopping, but that's something we did not attempt as we wanted to make pitstops along the way). We are not stating these as facts, they are only our suggestions based on what we personally did. Furthermore, while we understand that your experience left you with bad memories and you're in your rights to share your experience, again, we are saddened to hear you resort to saying we "are straight out lying". We can only hope to be able to foster a sense of honesty and trust with viewers like you and Michael Scott, and it hurts to hear someone like you aunty sandy disparaging us not only on this comment but on multiple comments down thread as well.
