The ultimate Guidebook to Maui

Luggage and bags: Let me start by saying the following book is not liked by the people of Maui because it has exposed many of the island's sacred lands and secret places to unappreciative tourists. It's hard to balance the value of this book and the feelings of the people of the island. When reading this tip, and reading the book, please regard anything suggested to you as a sacred thing that must be appreciated and treasured. Should you decide to be adventurous, be mindful of the views of the people of Maui. Respect what has been offered to you.

Miscellaneous: Now for the book...

An absolute must on all trips to Maui is to purchase a copy of 'Maui Revealed: The Ultimate Guidebook.' Let me tell you, that the title is so "on the money." Not only does this guidebook offer accurate and in depth descriptions of all the popular sites, but it also tells you about the unpopular sites that are well worth a visit. Scratch that, they're must sees! The authors even tell you where to get the best banana bread.

We originally purchased the Insight Guides book on Hawaii, but two friends of ours bought this book for us. They used it on their trip and insisted that we have a copy. What a difference! Thanks Steve and Linsey!

Using this book will also mean that you must rent the 4x4 truck (Jeep Wrangler--see transportation tips). Otherwise, you will miss out on so much! I guarantee you won't regret buying this guide or the Jeep rental!.

Have the right camera when you go whale watching!

Photo Equipment: When you go whale watching, don't make the same mistake I did. Have a camera with quick shutterspeed. My digital camera takes for ever and as such, I missed the breaching whale that caused this splash.
