Awesome video!Thanks for sharing.
This was beautiful! And much more than I saw in 1984! My moms family is from Oahu and Maui and since I grew up mainland we would spend some summers visiting grandparents and aunties and uncles. In 84 we visited my great aunt and uncle in maui and they were the best! I loved them immediately the first time I met them. However, lol Uncle had let me stuff myself that morning with several types of cereal and off the 4 of us to Hana. My mom and I in the back of a tiny old Datsun car. Needless to say I was sick the entire trip from motion sickness. I’m grateful had a stomach full of something! I had a big trashcan liner and no dramamine. I’ve never been so sick in my life. They never stopped, I guess thinking the faster we got there the better. I only remember seeing and walking on a black sand beach for a little while and I guess I had ruined the trip as we soon got back in the car and went home. Me dry heaving the entire way back. So please pack motion sickness medicine! I felt so guilty.
Wow what an amazing video. Was it me or am I the only one that got a bit emotional and overwhelmed at how beautiful it is there?!? We’ll be there in 3 weeks. I can’t wait.
TheonethecallQuaid it was so beautiful! The best are 360 shots of the road
i just got back from maui this morning and i’m already missing it so much. the road to hana was beautiful and i feel like i didn’t get enough of it though. this made me happy thinking about maui.
hana is beautiful and aloha week just end (if you don't know what Aloha Week is search it up) and i live there and i get weary on the road to hana
Love this vid and the music....I could listen to Moemoea all day and picture all the great things about Maui in my mind!
I just did the Road to Hana and found it to be a very stressful drive! It was a Sunday and there were heavy traffic both ways. It was beautiful, but all of Maui is. I would never do it again!!
I think you have found the perfect plateform for you vision. thanks
This was so beautiful...... have taken this road over 30 times and enjoy it each time. It's truly so special..... thank you for a special video
Now THIS is a guide!!!! You are the best!!!
Very well done video. Thank you so much for sharing this. And for the kind and caring tone that it takes toward the land and the culture of Maui.
This is so useful! going in february & will def use this tips :)
Nice Video, thanks. I am going to Maui in Oct. 4, 2017. First time going, so excited.
I don't understand why you don't have an assload more subs than you do. I can't wait to come back to Maui for the 3rd time in about 10 months. Taking the kids this time so they get to experience it all for the first time. I am pretty excited for them.
Thank you for the tips. So beautiful out there and perfect editing 😉
dude it's been a week and I miss everything about Maui. I've been watching these vids still thinking I'm in Haiku..
Absolutely stunning! Cant wait until our honeymoon to Maui!!!!
Logan Callahan you’re gonna love it! I just went and got some great shots!
Great video Kalani! Love the drone footage in the beginning.
Thank you for the great tips!
Stunningly beautiful
Amazing video Kalani! Loved the music. Almost fell asleep cleaning the Kurig while watching the video
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!!
Thank you for sharing it's beautiful 😍
Thank you for this blessing video, beautifully shot and love the music too
Thanks 🙏🌈🐬
Love the melody!
Wow, great photography! Thanks for putting that together.
Fabulous video...thanks for sharing!
Great tips I will be there in may.
I love Maui, it's my second favorite destination in the world (Moorea, Tahiti - French Polynesia is #1. The one drive I will never take again is the Road to Hana. Way too scary even though it's beautiful. I've traveled in every state, never was as frightened as on the Hana Road. My advice to Visitors, stay in the Lahaina / Kaanapali Beach area. Best beach on the island!
Great tips. Especially #1. I'd also add to bring phone charger and spare batteries - cause all the videos and photo-taking will drain a lot of power.
Good advice... also, I've learned from backpacking with my phone, is putting it on Airplane mode is a good way to save battery life and till use it for photos and videos.
Appreciate the tips!! My family and I are visiting in June 2018!! Very soon!!!
David S to
Wow!!! Great vid!
Renren07 it really is! Inspired me to go do a vid there!
What is the name of the song/artist for the video? And thank you for posting this!
HOLY MOLEY! HOLEY COW!
Such a gorgeous video.
Unparalleled!
Thank you!!!
Thank you friend for all of your AMAZING videos and tips! We are in Maui now.. We did Road to Hana yesterday😎 It was so fun we are doing it again and hitting more waterfalls🌴💦 Banana Bread and Coconut Glen’s icecream. The best way to experience the drive is in a convertible or a Jeep with top off 🤙🏼 #alohastoked
Love your video!! It inspired my trip to Maui/ my new Vlog! Thank you!
Very nice, makes me wanna go right now.
unbelievable good
Beautiful music and film. Asante sana.
I’ll be there next month! Can’t wait!😊
wow...awesome!
my wife and i go next month,thank you for the good advice, aloha :)
Such awesome and peaceful video!!
Beautiful work, thanks for uploading.
Those cinema's :)
Howdy, Any rips on where to start when coming from the Kihei area?
stunning.
Agree even stay in Hana for one night so you have two whole days to do it and really take your time
I'm from New York, we have some gorgeous views here whether you're in the city or upstate NY near the Appalachian mountains. Honestly, I don't think anything can compare to the beauty of Maui. I'm in love.💐💋💝 😢
dont you even dare to compare NY to Maui. Floridians can try to compare. Not you. Tropical to Tropical. You need to compare yourself to Saskatchewan
Nice video. Don't forget to stop at TONY' PLACE for ono grinds! Fresh fish and amazing hamburgers! It is new and was not there when video made. Accidently came upon it coming around backside - first stop. We were HUNGRY!
Where is that first beach at? Since I will be driving a truck that can handle that drive, it would be awesome if I could go there.
Nobody said pack cooler !
That’s tip number #1
Hint #1. Rent a Camaro convertible 2. Haul ass.
But don't forget to stop at Coconut Glens (and give him a tip so he can finally buy an engine for his vw microbus) .
Who is the soundtrack by? Digging that ukulele...
Another great video Kalani!
I didn't hear any audio on the sample tapes.....is there audio on the tapes??????
We have been Maui 2weeks so I would like to go there
Well done and spot on!
Sharron Miller I agree! Inspired my trip!
Nice tips, and drone video. I'm looking for mileage markers and descriptions for the things to stop and see. A rating from 1-10 of each attraction would be nice also to help prioritize the time for the day. Does anyone have something like that? Am I asking too much?
Tom Spurlock aha this would be great! I made a video on Hana, although I forgot the mile markers
Is another tip not to wear sunscreen in swimming holes? Or maybe certain ones?
Can ya snorkel at the black sand beach?
Great video :)
What type of drone did you use for the aerial shots?
The kine I cast my 5oz lead at.
Maui no ka oi
beautiful
Where's the music/score source?
If you are a passenger in a car driving to Hana, you best have a strong stomach or some motion sickness medicine.
One more tip, bring water shoes is you want to swim at Wai'anapanapa Black "sand" beach. It's more like black rock beach. Your feet will thank me.
Tip 8: Stay in Hana (or nearby). We stopped in Mack's Shack. Like paradise.
is the road scary or just curvy?
It's curvy---absolutely beautiful. A "MUST SEE" as far as I am concerned. I have been to Maui 3 times and going again in September and will once again drive the Road to Hana---it is a treasure.
What song is this?
Moemoea by Kris Fuchigami
Poster needs to acknowledge Fuchigami... else copyright infringement.
Ok, this video is much better than the Red Sands video, good job bruddah.... except the sunscreen part. Sunscreen will soon be banned and nobody wants that in our streams and oceans. Mahalo👍🏼😎
song name please.... thank you
My Maui flight is in less than 7 hours and I should be sleeping
video hay qua
Was this the scary 😳 one lane 🛣️ to escape Lahaina 🔥 massacre?🙏🌿🕊️🕯️😭😿🥺🤍🧡💜🖤
what was that last beach?
Adam Wilson waianapanapa beach park
Tip #8, if it's your first time visiting Maui skip the road to Hana. There are better ways to spend your time if you've never been. Save this for the 3rd or 4th trip
Jelly Donut for some people a Hawaiian vacation is a once in a lifetime opportunity
WTF? Skip the drive? Who made you the boss?
I went on this during the summer we got in a wreck
oh no!
This song tho
" aloha"
This sad music doesn`t represent the aloha spirit well.......maybe only that the locals are sad that their land was stolen.......
Barbara Defina feel free to submit a list of royalty free music you’d like to see on the channel and mahalo for watching!
Not sad music at all, it’s just individual perceptions. Great video, great music.
make sure have full tank of gas...aloha.
A true environmentalist could never be a tourist. 100,000 rental cars just spewing pollution but hey you can brag about your selfie.
I hate the road to Hana. Too many curves. I will never do the road to Hana ever again.
One tip to add. Fill up your gas tank in Kahului. Paia is the last of gas stations. And it is an all day adventure! If you leave early AM you will not be back until after 5 pm. This video also doesn't show the VAST amount of cars on the Road to Hana! Bumper to bumper all the way.
I have also seen some videos that say to take the backside to Hana! NO! The road is really bad and Rental Car Companies do not ALLOW travel on this road! There are also several areas that you must honk to let oncoming traffic know you are coming around the corner. If you don't you will have to back your car down a windy road on a cliff with no railings! Super scary!!
And don't forget to see the 7 SACRED POOLS! The hike is incredible! But not for the weak!! The trail can get really slippery too. It takes you through this incredible bamboo forest! And you will never forget the lone banyan tree along the way! It is a clipping from the Banyan tree in Lahaina.
And can't emphasis enough. Bring CASH. The best food is from the street vendors. And you will regret not buying chocolate chip banana bread! Totally will regret it!!
One of the spots that I always remember is coming around a curve and directly ahead is the enormous Bamboo Forest! One of the most beautiful memories of my trip there. Printed indelibly on my brain. Thinking of it makes me know I will come back again.
We did this road to Hana trip today, once we arrived Hana, we ate lunch and continue driving around to the other side instead of turning around back to the same route, there was a part of the road that is a dry river bed for about 10 seconds on a 25 mph speed, then back to a black top road, we also saw a couple of cows right along the highway that seemed got away from the range fence...I can finally say that we made around Mt. Haleakala.
I thank you very much for the information. My wife and I are heading there soon and your video was very helpful and informative.
Last time I drove that I got car sick. Love the scenery along the way, but I'll stick to less windy roads when I am there. Be back in a couple of days from now . Kihei is my favourite , much drier there
Nice video. But man, why do people feel the need to put that AWFUL crappy music on their travel videos? I would seriously rather listen to fingernails on a chalkboard or gears grinding. Silence would work too.
Try turn off your sound and enjoy the scenery and your silence! Easy~
Frank Smith lol everyone has got to be thinking this! I stay away from sleeping music in content I make
You might like my upbeat style
im seriously overwhelmed by the beauty of the land and the cinematic shots, nice work Mr. Kalani
Well done video!! Thank you 🙏🏽
I've taken this drive. It has many lovely spots. If you are used to driving the road is not a challenge nor is car sickness a concern. There was nothing when you arrived in Hana but to turn around and drive back. I loved the one lane bridges an sharp corners. The red bark tree grove was especially beautiful. The video doesn't show any of the great stuff. I wonder why?
