A Weekend in Maui, Hawai'i

Looking for a perfect way to spend a long weekend in Maui, Hawai’i, check out this 3 and a half day itinerary to take the stress out of planning your ideal island vacation and leave the relaxing to you. This itinerary is made for adults ages 21+ in mind.
When in Hawai’i, always remember to respect the locals, the rules, their culture and wildlife, leave places better than you found them, and practice the leave no trace principle. Remember, we are guests in their home.
Out of respect and guidance, this guide does not include any stops or activities in West Maui. Our hearts go out to the grieving communities and local islanders who are still struggling to recover from the wildfires in early August 2023. Please do not go to Lahaina or take photos of the area.
Whenever possible, shop, eat, and play by supporting local shops and groups.

Welcome to Maui
Day 1
After arriving at the Kulahi International Airport (OGG) pick up your rental car and begin your adventure. Alternative travel options like a bus and Uber are available, but a rental car will give you the most freedom on your trip. Depending on your arrival time and sleeping accommodations, it may adjust what you have time for after arriving. For this specific trip, their flight landed at 12:15 pm, allowing us a half day for adventures.

Quick Stop
After picking up your rental car (we used our AAA membership to get a good discount on a rental at Hertz for the week), we stopped for a quick bite to eat at Tight Tacos Maui just a short 5 minute drive from the rental car facility.

Super quick service. Not a large menu and very limited vegetarian options. Tacos were fantastic and chips were home cooked too.

----------
Michigander at heart but currently traveling the world one week at a time for work. When not on the road and living out of my suitcase, I am down to spend the day exploring the local city scene or out hiking in nature. I am an adventurous spirit and try to maximize my free time exploring the hidden corners of whatever city I am in. I've been traveling all over the U.S. and Europe for nine years and crave authentic experiences at local hot spots (and sometimes the touristy faves). As a young and avid traveler (16 Countries, 45 U.S. States, 24 U.S. National Parks & numerous cities) my goal is to help you reach your travel goals - no matter the destination.
On Thatch, I create super detailed guides and itineraries to destinations that I've personally visited. These destinations have a little bit of everything that I love about travel (adventure, city life, great eats, beach days and more). I can also create custom guides and itineraries to wherever you may be dreaming of traveling to.
Top bucket list items: Ride in a hot air balloon, visit all 50 U.S. states, and someday be on the Amazing Race with my sister.
