My family and I are simply big road trip enthusiasts. The chill vibe of riding with the windows open and good music playing along is one of the ways we can really bond with each other – away from the stresses of city life and isolating technology. Out there, we’re just one happy family.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
We make it our life’s mission to travel to all famous road trip destinations out there and that wouldn’t be complete without experiencing the awesome terrain of world-famous HI-360 or Hana Highway – one of the most dwindling and gut-tugging highways in the history of highways. And, I’m not exaggerating. I purposefully created this blog just to tell you about our crazy (in a good way) adventure there. Better hang on to your seats because we’re taking you to Hana, Maui and it’s going to be one bumpy ride!<o:p></o:p></div>

We think it’s not worth to sacrifice our safety for the sake of trying. So we booked for a tour with <a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/luxury-road-to-hana-waterfalls-lunch/" target="_blank">Stardust Hawaii</a> instead (be sure to check them out). And boy did we not regret this decision. Why travel solo when you can get a jam-packed Hana, <a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/luxury-road-to-hana-waterfalls-lunch/" target="_blank"><span class="MsoHyperlink">Maui tour on a Mercedes</span>?</a> It made me go okay. If I am to travel, traveling in-style is the best way to go!<o:p></o:p></div>

I’ve been on several road trips in the years past so how bad can it be? Later on, HI-360 proved me wrong. We were doing all these hairpin turns that, although fun, was crazy scary. It seemed to go on forever. When I asked the guide, he said we’re going to have to go through 617 curves and 56 one-lane bridges. No wonder it got tagged as <span class="MsoHyperlink"><a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/luxury-road-to-hana-waterfalls-lunch/">the Divorce Highway</a></span>. Even though my head was becoming a little bit dizzy with all the lefts and rights, it was one experience I wouldn’t have any other way. Plus, the overlooking scenery of luscious greens and gorgeous mountaintops redeemed every inch of my wanderlust soul.<o:p></o:p></div>

Our first stop was at Ho’okipa Beach Park. A famous surfing place, and boy, did we see a lot of surfers out there. If you are lucky, you can spot turtles at the beach as they like to rest in the sun. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Upon entering Hana, the <a href="https://friendsofstjoseph-kaupo.org/images/">Historic Church of St. Joseph in Kaupo</a> greets you for a job well done. On the way there, we went to see waterfalls that really left us in awe. We got to take pretty cool pictures with it too. Then, we enjoyed a nice daytime stroll at Wainapanapa black sand State Park. </div>

I heard you can snorkel on this amazing black sand beach but our family saved it for next time. There’s just so much to see in a day’s time! Part of the tour was seeing <span class="MsoHyperlink"><a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/road-trip-to-hana-in-a-luxury-way/">Lava Tube caves</a></span> – that was actually the first time in my life I got to see anything like it. <o:p></o:p><br />

It was delicious. I love the texture when you mixing the yolk with rice and gravy, OMG I would go back for this dish.</div>

My favorite part of all was taking a relaxing dip in the Pools of O’heo which is popularly known as the Seven Sacred Pools of O’heo. We had to travel a bit more to get to this place but it was time spent well. It looked like a waterfall with several pools tied together that exits to the ocean – truly a magnificent view!</div>

The whole excitement really got us hungry so we stopped by at Hana Farms for some grub where I found my new all-time favorite: Banana Nut and Chocolate Chip Bread – definitely a must try! <o:p></o:p></div>

I know that when kids are asked:
What’s the biggest mammal on earth? Most (if not all) of them would answer an
elephant. Well, my 7-year old boy begs to differ. He would always say a
somewhat peculiar answer – a whale. Technically, he’s right because it was
neither specified if the mammal lives in land or water. But the point is –
aside from him being a really bright fellow – he had the biggest fascination
for whales. And as his mum, I just couldn’t stand back and watch him dream of
them. So I decided to take him where he can see the biggest whales his eyes can
ever set upon – Hawaii.<o:p></o:p></div>

Oh, what a place. When our plane
landed on Kahului Airport, a sunny, tropical paradise greeted our arrival. I
made sure to bring my camera at the time (can’t waste any picture perfect
moments). It was April and the island was just so alive with tourists like us.
But despite the happy, outgoing aura, I noticed my son turning all silent. At
first I thought that maybe it was because his dad could not come along due to
work demands so I tried to give him a pat on the shoulder and said we’d come
again together the next time. But to my surprise, he turned his head down and
became all teary-eyed and I was like “Uh-oh. Maybe I did the wrong thing
booking this trip.” But then, he clasped my hand and told me he can’t contain
how happy and excited he was for his whale watching trip in the afternoon. That
really pulled on my heartstrings.<o:p></o:p></div>

We made reservations in advance.
We booked for 2 Whale Watching Passes <span class="MsoHyperlink"><a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/?s=whale+watch">via Stardust Hawaii</a></span>
as per my good friend’s recommendation. It was surprisingly affordable! The
prices varied according to the number of hours you’d like to watch. They have
it for <span class="MsoHyperlink"><a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/maui-whale-watch-2-hours/">90
minutes</a></span> (an hour and a half) for only $39.99 – trip to the mall even
costs more sometimes. But knowing that my son is a young enthusiast, I figured
he’d want more time. So, I booked for a <span class="MsoHyperlink"><a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/maui-whale-watch-2-hours/">2-hour
watch</a></span> and luckily got a nice discount! We only paid around $69 each
(normally $80). <o:p></o:p></div>

And lo and behold it was a great
deal indeed. The experience made my heart jump a bit. It was terrifying and
amazing all at the same time. We were super close (I swear) and every time the
whale jumped out of the water it would tower several feet above our heads. Rest
assured the <span class="MsoHyperlink"><a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/maui-whale-watch-2-hours/">boat
was perfectly safe</a></span> (and comfortable). Plus, it was not too crowded
(around 40 people max) so everyone got to enjoy the amazing creature in
close-view. <o:p></o:p></div>

Best part is when I saw my son’s
eyes shining with astonishment. That’s when I knew the trip was worth it.
Although, I did embarrass myself (a bit) when I got told off by my young kid
that I was wrong for telling him that it was a blue whale. He was like “Mum,
don’t you know a Humpback when you see one? I seriously thought he had an early
onset of his rebellious stage for that. <o:p></o:p></div>

It looks different each night, and it looks different from each vantage point.

On June 21 (the longest day) the sun rises at 5:46 AM and sets at 7:11 PM. On December 21 (the shortest day) the sun rises at 6:59 AM and sets at 5:51 PM. However, depending on where you are watching from, the sun may rise later or set earlier if it is rising or setting behind a mountain or behind Lanai (an island about nine miles away). In addition, the sun rises earlier and sets later when viewed from the top of Haleakala, the tallest mountain on Maui, two miles up. For a list of sunrise and sunset times on Maui for each month of the year, see the Weather page of this website. Remember, best way to see Maui sunset is from a (not horse) but Segway PT, no sweat, ocean breeze and beautiful view of Maui sunset. <a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/segway-sunset-tour-maui/">Reserve</a> your <b><a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/segway-sunset-tour-maui/">Segway Sunset Tour</a></b> now to get the open spot for your vacation.</div>

<b>Ocean Vodka Distillery, Surfing Goat Dairy & Lavender

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When visiting Maui, you just got to go on this tour. It
is fun, exciting, educational, and a great place to relax and escape the
bustling city life. Oh, and did I mention Vodka?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yes, you heard it right. For the very first stop, we visited
the <a href="https://www.saveonmaui.com/hawaii-tours/ocean-vodka-dairy-goat-lavender-farm-gourmet-lunch-tour-the-luxury-way/">Ocean Vodka Distillery and Farm</a>. Here you can learn how tedious the
distillation process can get (in all the best sense of the word) plus you get
to see the breathtaking stretch of sugar cane that is processed to make our
all-time favorite friend Vodka. How the machinery work is simply astounding
and you’d be surprised to find out that everything runs on solar energy!
Everything is made organic, and all ingredients handpicked even. You can be
100% sure that no pesticides or chemical substances are found on their produce.
It’s inspiring to know that not all innovations are out to feed on Mother
Nature. The nicest thing about this tour is that you get to go to the Martini
garden where you can see fresh, local ingredients and get a taste of their
delightful Vodka. But don’t just take my word for it, be sure to enjoy this
firsthand.<o:p></o:p></div>

Next, we got to see the <a href="https://www.saveonmaui.com/hawaii-tours/ocean-vodka-dairy-goat-lavender-farm-gourmet-lunch-tour-the-luxury-way/">Surfing Goat Dairy farm.</a> If you love
cheese, you just got to go here – no kidding! You get to see adorable farm
goats and get more acquainted on how the whole cheese process works. It’s
informative and fun at the same time (made me want to feed the goats the entire
day). A big bonus for this trip was meeting Charlie. He’s super cute and just
plain irresistible. But don’t ask me why or who this intriguing Charlie is, get
to meet him yourself!<o:p></o:p></div>

really memorable for me – the <a href="https://www.saveonmaui.com/hawaii-tours/ocean-vodka-dairy-goat-lavender-farm-gourmet-lunch-tour-the-luxury-way/">Lavender Farm</a>. Enjoy serene and tranquil
sceneries by taking a Guided Walking Tour that typically takes around 30-40
minutes. They also offer a Guided Cart Tour but be sure to book in advance
because these carts are pretty popular. Get to see the stunning fields of
lavender that stretch far into the horizon. Feel free to enjoy it with a
special partner too.<o:p></o:p></div>

yourself but can be extra fun with family and friends. Get to experience the
finest works of Mother Nature right here in Maui by taking this one-of-a-kind
tour. You will definitely enjoy it – I sure did.<o:p></o:p><br />

<b><i>Maui Treasure Hunt adventure</i></b></h2>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>Forewarning: This blog is going
to contain one muddy adventure!<o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>When my mom asked me what I would
like to have for my 11<sup>th</sup> birthday – I instantly knew the answer. No
it wasn’t Disneyland (I’m not the type to like humanoid mice), I wanted to go
somewhere that felt like a real jungle adventure. At first I said I wanted to
go to the Amazon but of course no parent would permit that. We live in Pearl
City, Hawaii, near the historical Pearl Harbor, so my dad suggested we should
go to Maui instead. It has the jungle feel plus it’s not going to rob my father
three months of his paychecks. So I was game, my two brothers were really happy
to go as well.<o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>This was going to be our first
time on Maui as a family and because we don’t exactly know how to go about the
place yet, we asked a tour company’s help. I really knew my mom was trying to
give me the best time for my birthday and so she went ahead and booked us for a
<a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/maui-treasure-hunt-the-best-for-your-kids/">Jungle
Treasure Hunt Adventure</a>! The word jungle really tugged on my adventurous
spirit and I really wanted to jump up and down out of excitement. My mom said they also had it in a <a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/savanna-treasure-hunt-maui-adventure-for-your-kids/">Savanna
version</a> or you can enjoy it together with an <a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/treasure-hunt-adventure-one-week-entrance-ocean-center-combo-package/">Ocean
Center Package</a> (1 week free entrance) but since we’re only staying for a
couple of days and a jungle adventure is what I came for in the first place, I
decided to save the other two the next time we came to visit again.<o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>It was fifteen minutes to 9:00 AM
when we arrived at Park n’ Ride Kahului – the meet-up spot. The weather was
perfect and my energy was so high I could hike for days. They gave us fair
warning of the huge possibility that we’d get down and dirty (literally) so we
had working clothes on. I was so overwhelmed I couldn’t help the grin on my
face from showing. Ready, set, and go! We’re off to start our family adventure.<o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<i><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">We first did a bit of hiking
through deep forests. The trail was not too long or too difficult; it was just
about right to break out a good sweat – ideal for every member of the family to
enjoy (even my 7-year old brother handled it splendidly!).</span> The thrilling
view of the towering trees and the natural sound of the forest were
fascinating. The best part was having a goal to pursue. I felt like a real life
treasure hunter: searching for clues, accomplishing tasks, and braving on
waters. Because the weather was nice and sunny, we got to <a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/maui-treasure-hunt-the-best-for-your-kids/">swim
in a beautiful lagoon</a>. That’s when I realized fresh water would win over
pool water any time. We crossed a river and ventured into thicker greens. I was
having the time of my life – and I was happy to see my sisters were too!<o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">After a nice hike, we finally did it!</span> </span>We completed
the hunt the moment we found the golden treasure chest! The contents of which I
will not reveal (I don’t want to spoil the surprise) but it felt so fulfilling
to have reached the goal. I had an
achievement photo taken with me and my family on it to commemorate the
experience. And more than the treasure we found on the chest, that photo is
what I treasured most. I still have it as a keepsake to remember my Maui trip
with.<o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>You must be wondering how old I
am since I’m storytelling this experience as if I’m in my 90’s. Well, I’m not.
I just turned 14 this year (would you find me on the picture?) and am looking forward to <a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/">more Maui adventures</a>! Maybe next
time we’ll get to go on other tours as well. My mom is actually going deaf with
my inquiries on when we’ll be going back so I think she’ll give up any time now.
Well then, see you real soon Maui!</i><o:p></o:p></div>

Your kids will most likely ask for a Maui Treasure Hunt <a href="http://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/t-shirt-from-treasure-hunt/">T-shirt</a>, well it's a worth souvenir, very good quality and great attractive design and priced at $17.99 it's totally a good price on Hawaii. We ordered a photo cd from a trip which is full of great high resolution photos, but we should get a <a href="http://www.stardusthawaii.com/hawaii-tours/dvd-professionally-recorded-edited-and-narrated-with-hawaiian-music/">DVD</a> instead to have a live view memory from our tour.

If you're one of the few who have been on a submarine, I'll bet it didn't have windows! Here's your chance to board a .5 million submarine, dive to a depth of 150 feet, and cruise around the ocean floor for an hour and see everything out there from the best vantage point possible. Sound exciting? A Maui submarine tour is!</div>

During my first Maui submarine tour, I remember thinking how incredible it was to be down that deep for that long. I realized I was actually spending a part of my day on the ocean floor examining the sanctity of the underwater world, a world which had previously only been available to me via motion pictures or television. I remember thinking how wonderful it would be if every child could have this experience and they would be aware for the rest of their life that there was a marine world below the surface of the water that was happening every moment of the day just as they're lives were happening. Was I impressed with my first submarine tour? You bet, and I know you will be as well!</div>

The climate-controlled cabin and giant viewing ports make your submarine tour below the surface both comfortable and interesting. You'll see hundreds and hundreds of fish and coral heads of all sizes and colors. Sometimes you'll see eels, rays and occasionally a shark. As you inch along the sea floor, more and more is revealed, color upon color, shape upon shape. During the winter months whales have swum into view. Each submarine tour is different, but each dive is exciting, informative and educational.<br />

So why don’t you opt for a bike trip in the Hawaii’s? But for that you need to make certain plans so that you can enjoy your bike trip in the perfect way.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #788cac; font-family: "montserrat" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 32px; text-align: justify;"></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #788cac; font-family: "montserrat" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 32px; text-align: justify;">When you are planning your trip to Hawaii ask your travel agent to book for the bike trip as well. In case he fails to offer this, then talk to another agent. It may happen that you come to know from your friends and relatives that it is best to book for the bike trip once you reach the destination. In such a scenario try to read about these trips as much as you can from the different blogs and write ups available in the internet. You will be amazed to see that the net is a store house for the most vast collection of information. Gather as much information as you possibly can. In case you find that it is best to book the trip once you are there then wait to reach there. Once in the Hawaiian Islands, ask your hotel staff to recommend those agents who offer these trips. Speak to a few of them to see what they are offering and which biking trails are being offered by them. Once you find the one that you would like to go on, you need to book the trip accordingly. Because we answering a phone (<a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/contact-us/">808-661-8284</a>) every day, it's easy to just <a href="https://www.stardusthawaii.com/contact-us/">ask our agents</a>.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #788cac; font-family: "montserrat" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 32px; text-align: justify;"></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #788cac; font-family: "montserrat" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 32px; text-align: justify;">While you are booking the trip make sure that they are offering the apt bike for the trail. Regular bikes and mountain bikes are different so find out what they are offering. Ask for the helmet as well a map of the tour. Find out whether you need to travel alone or whether there will be a guide who will be there with you. It is better to have a guide as he will have a better understanding of the bike trail and your chances of getting lost will be few.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #788cac; font-family: "montserrat" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 32px; text-align: justify;"></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #788cac; font-family: "montserrat" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 32px; text-align: justify;">There are certain agents that will ask you to deposit some money as they are lending you their bike while you can make the rest of the payment when you submit the bike. Or they may ask you to make the full payment before you begin your trip. They do so because there are many incidences when people have ran away with their bikes causing them huge monetary loss. In order to prevent this, the agents often follow this procedure.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #788cac; font-family: "montserrat" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 32px; text-align: justify;"></span><span style="background-color: white; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #788cac; font-family: "montserrat" , sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 32px;">Planning a bike trip is quite interesting provided you know what to look for otherwise you will be completely at a loss. Also make sure that you are wearing the right clothes. Opt for track pants as they will not interfere when you are riding. And if you are wearing shorts don’t forget to apply mosquito repellent and an insect repellent lotion on the exposed areas so as to avoid bug bites and mosquito stings.
