Maui Family Road Trip Essentials

Are you heading to Maui on a family vacation? Whether you’re planning on driving the Road to Hana or simply want to explore beaches and volcanoes together, a minivan or SUV rental will make transportation around the island easier, allowing you to be as spontaneous as you’d like. The team at Allsave Car Rental Maui wants you to make the most of your holiday; that’s why we’re sharing these essential tips for planning and packing for your Maui road trip.

1. Book your transportation. Start by reserving a minivan or SUV so that there will be plenty of space for the whole family, plus lots of storage and cargo room. Sure, you might be able to squeeze everyone into a rental car, but it might get overcrowded with beach bags and picnic baskets.

2. Plan ahead. Decide as a family what you just can’t miss, and then plan for it. There are a number of great sites and apps to help you plan your trip to Maui, and using Google maps or another GPS program will take the guesswork out of driving and ensure that you’re focused on the journey rather than worrying about navigating.

3. Allow time for spontaneity and surprises. Having an overbooked, over-planned schedule while on holidays is not fun for anyone, particularly when kids are involved. Make sure you build in plenty of time for impromptu stops and fun family time. That’s how memories are made!

4. Don’t forget the essentials. When you’re getting ready for a family day trip on Maui, don’t forget to bring a camera, sunscreen, bathing suits and towels, sunglasses, and wipes. You can pick up water and snacks along the way, and you can stop frequently so you shouldn’t need lots of toys or activity books to keep the kids busy.
