we will be flying form Kauai to the Kahului airport in Maui, we will be then going to the Hana Maui ranch resort, should we fly or drive, I know the drive is about 2 or 2 1/2 hours from that airport, and the flight is 15 minutes...
we dont particulary like to drive to much, but is the drive absolutely incredibly worth it.. or is it long and exhausting and would it be worth it to spend a couple $100 for the convenience of just flying over to Hana on a 15 minute flight, then rent a car when we get to Hana to explore the o'heo gulch..etc....

we'd prefer to fly for convenience, but if the drive is a must do..? or is the destination of Hana itself the only must here???

thank you!!!

Aloha lasjas,

I wouldn't miss the drive... far from "long & exhausting".

I have a wonderful quote on my travel wall by Roy M. Goodman,

"Remember that happiness is a way of travel, not a destination."

Aloha, and have a wonderful time.

Well lasjas,

Your question reminds me of the old addage, " If you have to ask, you can't afford it."

That saying, "If you have to ask, you don't get Hana." Yes if I lived there or visited many more than my 3nights - 3 visits, I might consider commuting by trike!!!!!

However, haven never experienced this scenic drive, well, you simply must before you consider another means of transportation.

Aloha and best of luck with your many plans. The trip will be amazing because you have put tremendous joy into the planning!
Ciao Bella

Hana, Hana, Hana. Lets get a gategory just for Hana.

Reply to jor, I would vote 1st for a separate category for Freaky Friday\/

definitely driving, renting a convertible and we'll be on our way!!!

I am so incredibly excited for this trip!

we are seeing so many different things, but I plan on going on a very relaxed.. state of mind and really enjoying every moment!!!!!!!!

thank you!!!
