Thanks for getting up for this...you did it for all of us lol. When I was there I just couldnt wrap my head around it knowing I could watch your video instead..thank you. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Thanks for the great video(s)! Maui is my favorite of the islands so I'm always looking for "escape" videos to watch. Loved your comment about the "heart stopping" loco moco, lol!
Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video! I will be in Maui for about five and a half months for an internship starting January 2016 and I have to say that this made me feel very well about the location and what there is to do locally! Thanks for posting! -Anthony
Thank you for this video, very professionally edited! Also, very informative, got lots of information about Maui. Although if someone is up for nice beaches, not so many people and a place that is less commercialized I definitely recommend one of the Fiji islands. Martin from Melbourne
This video was great and SEALED the TRAVEL DEAL for me!!! I've been having MAJOR dreams about getting to Haleakala for that sunrise! Thanks for sharing, you got to the places that I've researched and your video has confirmed my research!
Getting ready for a trip with my wife and 8 kids next week. I LOVED your video, it was awesome. will go to several of the places you recommended. thanks so much!
great video! you hit so many of the same spots as we did when we were there last year, though we rented a house in Haiku on the north shore... you are so lucky to have seen such an amazing sunrise at Haleakala! the day we went the whole top of the mountain was shrouded in fog. I felt so ripped off and now I will have to go back and try again... we stopped and got the fish tacos and ceviche at that same roadside stand. when we were there there were a lot of flies crawling over the free samples so I'm surprised you were able to sit there and eat without being swarmed by bugs. we took ours to go. loved Paia town! my favorite place there was the little local grocery store call Mana Foods... shopping in there is a real Hawaii experience - I have never seen so many food products squeezed into such a small space! Went stopped at Twin Falls also. the most memorable part of that stop for us was when my 2 year old niece threw up on my brother-in-law's hair while he was giving her a shoulder ride! We didnt do a helicopter ride though have done one before on Kauai. The winery was a defintie highlight of our trip though it was also rainy and foggy when we were there... I had fun exploring the property and we took a bottle of their red home for dinner that night. Also got one of their great t-shirts as a souvenir. not sure if we even knew about the goat farm but that looks like a worthwhile spot to stop next time...
twin falls was ruined by the crowds created by Maui Revealed. That book has done more to degrade the environment on Maui than any other factor. Back in the 80's it would be considered crowded if there was more than 6 cars parked there. Now its 200 cars and a commercial fruit stand. we no longer take anyone there.
I'm planning a bike trip to Maui (well... fly there, bike after I arrive), and will be spending time riding up Haleakala and the Road to Hana. Never been to HA before, so your video was a great introduction. Took notes all along the way. THANKS. Aloha!
Matt I had no idea about any of this! Your videos are incredibly fun to watch and the places you've been to are just breathtaking. You are FUN take care Ana Cohen
Thanks for posting this video. I'm going to Maui and Oahu in 2 weeks. My first time in Hawaii and the USA. I am looking forward to do some of things from your video.
Thanks for the recommendations. We are headed there in a few months. I would never have known about the sunrise on the volcano if I hadn't watched this video. I am planning on that for sure!
Ha ha ha, very good idea to do Haleakala early in your trip. I too am from New York. Always on an extra early schedule when on Maui, but the first couple days are just stupid (waking up at 4).
Omgsh were Stabile too! I was just looking around on TH-cam, getting excited for a trip to Maui, (usually go to Kauai. We haven't been to Maui in ages) so, I just saw you credits. My husband is a Stabile! Great video. Think we'll check out the winery, and goat farm for sure! Great job.
Thank you, thank you very much! Very up close and great camera work. Really enjoyed your forms/ways of explaining your visit. Now I'm left wondering if your still in Maui! Lol.......
great video. we are heading to Maui next month, and we are going to go to several of ur recommendations! Thank you, and look forward to watching more on Maui--but, please. DON'T. EVER. SING. AGAIN. EVER. (o;
Paul, have fun! We are heading there in May. You'll have to keep in touch and let me know how your trip went :) i think were renting a condo in Kihei then 2 nights in Hana
Amazing vlog! i will be in maui towards the end of the month. If you had to choose 3 activites that are a must which ones would you choose? i would love to do all but being realistic I will not be able to
Great video bro. The wife and I are heading out there this May for our Anniversary :)... one question tho.. I'm a fluffy guy, so is this more of active vaycay.. meaning walking hiking being super active???? Lol yes I am pretty lazy
my sister is now living in Maui and this video is so helpful for her not to missed our home. she need to see this for sure... but would it be ok for you to list the songs you have used to play with the video? pretty please? i am LSS.
I always watch these videos about my home (Maui)... I realized that a lot of haoles (a foreign) stay in Lahaina or Kihei And usually travel to upcountry, Hana, or Haleakala. What I never see is people visiting Kahului or Wailuku. There is some really beautiful places out there besides what we call "tourist land". Another great gem place for jumping off a rock or hanging out is Iao Valley, check it out.
Hey Jessica, this was using my Nikon D5100 with the kit lens (it's the entry-level Nikon that has an audio mic input). I'm hoping to upgrade sooner rather than later and step things up a bit. I've been eyeing the Canons as of lately (I like the multi-touch screen option). Any and all suggestions welcome!
The water-proof camera, was that a GoPro? I seen that in some parts, you were not using any hands to film. Or was it also the Nikon? Also did you use a tripod to film or just hold it in your hands? I have a Canon t3i, just a beginners camera..but I want to start filming some things just for fun.
Jessica Ram Oh yeah, forgot that one. Yup, GoPro. I'm looking at the T5I myself. Yes, get out there and film! I did have a tripod, but I maybe used it twice or so. I SHOULD be using it more, but it's so cumbersome. I end up just using stabilizer in post-editing to fix anything horrible, otherwise I stick with the cinema verite style with the shaky cam.

H dear, thank you for your work, I wante to ask you how can I gent the song with the ukelele in the middle of the video?:) thank you! (7:35, not the middle ;)
Great video and I know its old so maybe it's gotten better in you newer videos you should really look inot normalizing the audio. One clip is silent and the next clip is blasting my speakers. Makes it really hard to watch as I'm constantly tweaking volume....for 30 minutes...
Diana Reynolds Diana Reynolds if you're to help someone with pronunciating, at least make sure that what you're saying is right. It's Ukulele as in oo-koo-leh-leh
Luv ur vid... helps that ur in one of the most perfect place on earth... Not sure if I wld s saying the same sentiment if u were vlog frm Syria? I know, pls no haters just sayin: i'm sure it's has it's beauty minus the bombs or their so-called, President to put it politely. I knw, gettin off topic, neway, I hope some travel show picks y up cuz y r a natural with a bit of that east coast humor. U sld check out Jillian Lawson blog, I think guys wld make a good duo plus you guys wld b cute 2gether :) Mind ur wink! wink! friends or shld I say friend may not b so keen on it. PS. where were u on my travels, all I meet r the borin guys lackin any sense of well, u kwn what I mean. Mahalo!
With all due respect, why would you be helping the game population of elk by eating it, when you say they are RAISING elk just for food....there is no overpopulation to help the elk numbers and I'm pretty sure they're not native to the islands. Great video for maui but just wanted to point that out.
AMAZING ISLAND...!!!
Thanks for getting up for this...you did it for all of us lol. When I was there I just couldnt wrap my head around it knowing I could watch your video instead..thank you. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this very special video! Very well done and gives me a much needed break from my life!
8 years since I was in Maui! Lived and worked there for a Summer! Miss it so much!
Shellie Duggan Cool! Going back soon?
Thanks for the great video(s)! Maui is my favorite of the islands so I'm always looking for "escape" videos to watch. Loved your comment about the "heart stopping" loco moco, lol!
We love Maui! Great video! Thank you for visiting and supporting our island! Mahalo nui loa (thank you ver much). Please come back and visit again!
Hang Loose Surf Club Nice, I love being able to support the island. It's a fantastic place, and I can't wait to get back soon!
Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video! I will be in Maui for about five and a half months for an internship starting January 2016 and I have to say that this made me feel very well about the location and what there is to do locally!
Thanks for posting! -Anthony
My girlfriend and I live here in Maui and we make Daily Travel Videos!
This is great. Im going on my own at the end of the year and this has by far been the most informative. Cheers!
Thank you for this video, very professionally edited! Also, very informative, got lots of information about Maui. Although if someone is up for nice beaches, not so many people and a place that is less commercialized I definitely recommend one of the Fiji islands. Martin from Melbourne
I watch a lot of video's on Maui and this is one of the best! Very informative and with some great humor. Thanks!!
Fantastic video. Well done! We truly enjoyed it.
i love your voice. very soothing and suited to narration!
This is by far the best video on Maui that I've seen. Thank you for all the info. We're going next June and I can't wait. Great video!!
Thanks Barbara, glad you enjoyed it! Have fun out there.
You are too funny. Love your sense of humor. Going there next year. Thanks for the tour.
kimberly route Thanks for the nice words Kimberly. Glad you enjoyed it.
I'm going next week to Maui and this was one of the most helpful videos on where to go and eat 👍🏼 thank you!
+Amber Underwood Great, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
This video was great and SEALED the TRAVEL DEAL for me!!! I've been having MAJOR dreams about getting to Haleakala for that sunrise! Thanks for sharing, you got to the places that I've researched and your video has confirmed my research!
Best fish Tacos in Kihei. We were eating at Coconuts just the other day. They opened up another location further down South Kihei Rd. Aloha
Getting ready for a trip with my wife and 8 kids next week. I LOVED your video, it was awesome. will go to several of the places you recommended. thanks so much!
Whoa, 8 kids huh? So how exactly do you get from point A to B with that size of a crew?
Mostly, by a van I guess.
great video! you hit so many of the same spots as we did when we were there last year, though we rented a house in Haiku on the north shore... you are so lucky to have seen such an amazing sunrise at Haleakala! the day we went the whole top of the mountain was shrouded in fog.

Nice, sounds like you had a good trip. I can't wait to get back myself.
TheExpeditioner one main highlight I would recommend that you didnt seem to get to is the Iao Valley...

Thank you so much!! Your video was awesomely funny and informative!!
Thanks for the recommendations. We are headed there in a few months. I would never have known about the sunrise on the volcano if I hadn't watched this video. I am planning on that for sure!
Naomi DeFazio That's great. Just dress warm (and not shorts like I did!)
Ha ha ha, very good idea to do Haleakala early in your trip. I too am from New York. Always on an extra early schedule when on Maui, but the first couple days are just stupid (waking up at 4).
Omgsh were Stabile too! I was just looking around on TH-cam, getting excited for a trip to Maui, (usually go to Kauai. We haven't been to Maui in ages) so, I just saw you credits. My husband is a Stabile! Great video. Think we'll check out the winery, and goat farm for sure! Great job.
Nice, yeah I loved the goat farm actually, lots of fun!
Excellent vid! Better then anything on the travel channel. Will be there in a couple months.
BrentRF Ha, wow, quite a compliment, thanks!
Maui, It's been over 2 months. I miss you!
This is really useful guide. I will be visiting Kapalua in 2 weeks.
And, you have very good music taste.
Ho Ivan Thanks Ho!

Great Video....Now u just added somewhere to go on my Bucket list
Juan Fernandez Cool, thumbs up!

This guy LOVES to eat.

Stephen Bugno Yup! Wait, this video you commented on is Maui . . .

I miss my old home.
Where do you live now?
Great video, love Paia Flat Bread Pizza
Thank you, thank you very much! Very up close and great camera work. Really enjoyed your forms/ways of explaining your visit. Now I'm left wondering if your still in Maui! Lol.......

Amazing job.
Awesome
Thanks!
Thanks!
I miss Maui...
Wonderful video, yo!
HOLYAKALA!!!!
great video. we are heading to Maui next month, and we are going to go to several of ur recommendations! Thank you, and look forward to watching more on Maui--but, please. DON'T. EVER. SING. AGAIN. EVER. (o;
Haha, to be fair it was only my bad ukulele skills I subjected you to, not my singing, but point taken.
Paul,
have fun! We are heading there in May. You'll have to keep in touch and let me know how your trip went :)
i think were renting a condo in Kihei then 2 nights in Hana
Amazing vlog! i will be in maui towards the end of the month. If you had to choose 3 activites that are a must which ones would you choose? i would love to do all but being realistic I will not be able to
Mahalo for the video...nice.
Doc Shred Thanks Doc, Mahalo!
My lucky butt is moving there the middle of this month- STOKED, Brah! Can't wait to surf/ eat at some of the spots you highlighted... gonna be sweet.
"a request that was soundly ignored."
😂
Kip from Napoleon Dynamite?!
Good video. But mostly about food. Where did you stay? How long were you there?
WOW, great vlog! We are so excited to visit next year June 2016!!!
+Nicki DivineTV Thank, hope you have a great trip!
how was it?
Billy johnson
AMAZING!!!!!1 The water... food... peaceful attitudes of the locals! A-1 IN MY BOOK. We didn't like the 7 hour flight from Atlanta. LOL
Nicki DivineTV good to hear
Billy johnson Thank you!
Great video! How many days was this trip?
Great video bro. The wife and I are heading out there this May for our Anniversary :)... one question tho.. I'm a fluffy guy, so is this more of active vaycay.. meaning walking hiking being super active???? Lol yes I am pretty lazy
Thanks Eric, remember, it's good to be active while you're traveling too!
Great video man. Going to San Francisco and Maui in May! Was the Road to Hana dangerous? Debating on whether to drive it myself or take a tour.
Sergio Lopez I actually didn't have time for it, but I've heard great things about it. I would do it if I were you.
Sergio Lopez It's not really dangerous but there's a lot of turns so bring your Dramamine.
my sister is now living in Maui and this video is so helpful for her not to missed our home. she need to see this for sure... but would it be ok for you to list the songs you have used to play with the video? pretty please? i am LSS.
+Josiphine Tagudin Sure, they're all listed at the end of the video in the credits.

When's the best time to go to Maui? I'd like to go in a few years, but I was wondering what months are best.
Well, I was there in September and it was perfect. I would Google it, but it's quite favorable year-round, but the prices vary a lot.
+Matt Stabile I'm going in September too. So excited. (next month)
LOVE YOu Maui
Hi There
What resort did you stay at in maui? and if have resort name were you was jamming with fred? look like great place. pete
Ka'anapali Beach Hotel!
Thank you great video
I'm moving to Maui in April
We're moving there soon. Also, nice Twaimz profile picture.
Did moving to Maui work out for you or did you move back?
Great video! So did you end up moving there???
Ha, no, still in New York.
What song is that playing during your helicopter tour?
Don't hate, he just sounds like Kip from Napoleon Dynamite!
Expeditioner, we are going in may. What weather can we expect???
Well, check out this site for some great tips: www.hawaiiweathertoday.com/trip-planning-weather/#may
Molto interessante
Great video, dude. You could easily have your own show on the Travel Channel.
P.S. Subbed :)
Thanks! I've been telling them the same thing for years, but to no avail.
TheExpeditioner Keep at it, my man. Good things come to good people- especially people with talent.
H dear, thank you for your work, I wante to ask you how can I gent the song with the ukelele in the middle of the video?:) thank you! (7:35, not the middle ;)

I live on Maui and Im a huge fan of your youtube channel...do u have an instagram acct? pretty sure u post good pictures..
Looks like you found it! Thanks for the nice words.
Great video and I know its old so maybe it's gotten better in you newer videos you should really look inot normalizing the audio. One clip is silent and the next clip is blasting my speakers. Makes it really hard to watch as I'm constantly tweaking volume....for 30 minutes...
im going to there
What season did you visit maui?
I was there in September.
I was inn the restoration next door to that
Learn to say UKELELE...OOOK A LEI LEI

Diana Reynolds Diana Reynolds if you're to help someone with pronunciating, at least make sure that what you're saying is right. It's Ukulele as in oo-koo-leh-leh
Actually you need to learn how to say it
Do you think 1k will be enough for one week
Gabo Prado depends on how extravagant u go
I went to my first time in Maui, Hawaii on last April 22nd-27th, 2016.
He forgot the most important part...lounging on the beach doing nothing!
highly recommend! :)
Luv ur vid... helps that ur in one of the most perfect place on earth... Not sure if I wld s saying the same sentiment if u were vlog frm Syria? I know, pls no haters just sayin: i'm sure it's has it's beauty minus the bombs or their so-called, President to put it politely. I knw, gettin off topic, neway, I hope some travel show picks y up cuz y r a natural with a bit of that east coast humor. U sld check out Jillian Lawson blog, I think guys wld make a good duo plus you guys wld b cute 2gether :) Mind ur wink! wink! friends or shld I say friend may not b so keen on it.

+Ju Ki Ha, thanks for the nice words. I do love travel, and I'll be keeping it up.
Kamaaina only yikes ...guess I can't see the Twin Falls ;(
Hi
Super informative, well shot, but......those forced jokes lol....maybe a few less; turned some funny ones into full on dad jokes by the end. ;)
you misspelled kalua pork.
bob marley is not hawaii, put it on the caribbean if you like, despite the fact that i hate bob marley music it ruins the hawaii feeling.
:P
With all due respect, why would you be helping the game population of elk by eating it, when you say they are RAISING elk just for food....there is no overpopulation to help the elk numbers and I'm pretty sure they're not native to the islands. Great video for maui but just wanted to point that out.
Way to ruin Maui lol
Not only does he love to eat but might as well have the camera up his nose while he's doing it.....gross
Why are holding the camera so close to your face, wtf
