Average Rating: Rating: - Maui Wowie This book is fantastic. I have just recently returned from a trip to Maui and had to tell anyone else that has planned a trip to Maui that this book is a must have!! I went to Maui a couple of years ago (without reading this book) and was able to see some of the fabulous sites that Maui has to offer - there are many - but using 'Maui Revealed' during my second trip, I was able to discover so many things that I missed the first time because I didn't know where everything was. Specifically the information on the 'Road to Hana' and the 'Road around the West Maui' mountains. The book calls out mile markers to stop at on these roads and it's pretty easy to follow. Trust me, without reading this book, you will drive right past all of the beautful hidden waterfalls and fresh water pools. Local pamphlets do a good job of informing visitors of major sites, like the Haleakala Crater and the Seven Sacred Pools - but not one mentioned the Olivine Pools located on the North side of the West Maui Mountains. Thanks to this book I was swimming in them!!! The only faults that I had with the book was the authors threw in some opinions which I didn't always share - like 'the Windjammer Dinner Cruise' is just that - people jammed on a boat. I have taken the Windjammer Dinner Cruise and we weren't crammed into it and the food was delicious. Also the authors made a remark about the 'Lahaina Divers' Scuba Diving Co, putting 50 people on their boat for every dive. Again, I have dived with Lahaina Divers and there has been anywhere from 10 to 30 people on board. My recommendation is to use this book for exploring Maui's land, but don't take to heart their statements on activities. Mahalo, HoagieBlossom Rating: - Finally Some Facts.... My first trip to Maui was in 1973 and I've been every year since then. This is one of the better guide books I have read due to its fresh approach and basic honesty. Let's face it, some places aren't all that great and others are pretty fantastic. They try to "tell it like it is" in Maui Revealed. If anything, I believe they are a little too gentle with some of the reports (e.g., they give a restaurant "ono" when it might not be consistent, etc.). Beach descriptions are excellent. On the other hand, they are right on when they describe milepost 14 as a lousy snorkeling location.... Obviously, you are tempting fate when you take on the establishment in Maui. Overall it is a good guide book with accurate information (especially for first time visitors). Any visitor (or local) will find something they didn't know it this guide. Definitely worth the read! Rating: - Exposes the Hidden Gems This book is a MUST HAVE for Maui. The detailed maps and precise directions blow away those "other" books. Reading the informal style of this guidebook is like listening to old friends explain the island to you - except that these friends have seen it all. If you want a guidebook that tells you too "ooh and ahh" at 200 year old mission churches, skip this book. If you want a book that tells you to drive to the end of the island, stop at a telephone pole in the middle of nowhere and hike 30 minutes through a lava field to find the world's most amazing snorkeling, then this is the book for you. And there are a multitude of color pictures that show you what things are really going to look like - much better than the few black and whites some other books have. I was impressed that Doughty and Friedman were so open with the secret spots - the Fish Bowl, the universe's best banana bread, and the blow hole that isn't in those other books. If it hadn't been for this book I wouldn't have swam with a sea turtle, seen nearly the number of beautiful tropical fish swimming in the amazing corals, or had the daring to drive the spectacular roads this book coaches you through so expertly.
