Buy the guides!! I read and reread the guides Oahu & Maui! It made our first trip so much better! We knew where to stay, eat and the tours we wanted to do even gave us ideas where to park! It was the perfect vacation! We went the road to Hana using the guide you suggested and it was perfect! Everyone got to see and experience The Road to Hana without driving! Thank you for making our first trip a blast!! We will be back!

We bought your Iten guides for Maui and the Big Island to help plan 30th Wedding Anniversary and they were super helpful. Thank you very much for your great information.

Thank you Jordan and Erica for these videos and your itineraries! My wife and I spent our honeymoon on Maui in December 2022 and your website and itineraries practically planned our entire trip and it was perfect! My wife and I are already trying to go back! We appreciate all your hard work! Mahalo nui loa!

[russelllangworthy]

Great video, as always. You two should do a video of your own personal story. Where you both grew up, how you met, how you made the move to Hawaii, etc. I think a lot of your viewers would enjoy seeing how you’ve become so successful.

I loved my trip to Maui last summer! I loved the snorkeling, so many turtles on the Western side, especially at Honokeana Bay! The reef is also spectacular on the west, especially at Coral Gardens, Honolua Bay, and Kapalua Bay, and Kahekili Beach. Also loved the beautiful Martian-like views in Haleakala National Park, also saw some endangered Nene Geese up there! Also enjoyed the Waihee Ridge hike on the west too! Can’t wait to come back in the winter months someday for whale-watching!

I went with my family to Maui and O'ahu last July with a lot of help from your Guides. Thank you! I rewatch your videos just to reminisce and (hopefully) start planning another trip in the future!

Just got back from Maui ! What a wonderful experience, truly one of a kind. The Black Sand Beach was spectacular!

[michaelwoods]

Just saw you guys at Ululani's Kihei and didn't want to disturb your family time, but wanted to say thank you for the videos. They were a huge help in planning the trip! Mahalo

[monykalynf]

The guides are so good for planning because of the way they are done it's so easy to customize!

[schamber]

We just got to Maui, stopped for papayas and Leona pies. Then Safeway and then took your advice and ate at a food truck in the Lahaina Cannery parking lot!

My wife, Ashley and I reside from East Tennessee, we are currently enjoying the NCL and we will be at Wailea Beach tomorrow, we thank you guys for your helpful tips through your channel I have been checking out for the last few weeks, it's helped out alot in advance for this fantastic trip.

Arriving WED! Can't wait...supposed to be lovely weather.

[monykalynf]

100% recommend guided tour to Hana. this is one area to splurge-so worth it (especially the one with the helicopter) Our farm tour was also private but that's because family owns it :)

[chronicillz]

[RayRaptor]

Nice tip: tune the radio to KPOA!
Great Island music.
It's what I miss back here in the state of 10, 000 frozen lakes.
Another great/helpful video. Thanks.
