CAMPING IN HAWAII (and best stops along the Road to Hana)

[@genevievedavis6706]

OMG Fin... I no longer feel alone in my rage with someone parking RIGHT ON TOP of me in an empty parking lot. Thank you soul sister.

[@jenniferfesperman3577]

So agree with the parking situation. That's my pet peeve as well. Same goes for public restrooms. You go into an empty 6 stall bathroom and someone comes in and goes in the one right next to you:) Love what you do for us!

[@federalreservebrown2507]

maui has some of theeee dumbest effers on earth,, most people drive slow in left lane on maui.

[@jordanhaymaker4210]

I came here to say this too! 😅

[@scottnoddin4372]

It's even worse for guys when someone does it at the urinal.. just so weird!

[@renmas5917]

😮😮

[@craigshields8806]

Time-lapse is beautiful.

[@DivandBenny]

Not a big fan of camping but I could get on board with this!

[@contessalouannec8064]

Thank You for sharing I was in Hawaii in 1984 Then in 1990.

[@rimasmeleshyus9486]

Lovely to drive to Hana , I was 33 years ago on this round, because now I am living 33 years in the garden island Kauai 🏝 I remember it was very beautiful to Hana round. Enjoy guys ,spacial place to be

[@gonagain]

Back in 1974 I left Wailuku hitchhiking to Hana. It took me two days to get there because there was NO traffic! During that time I saw one fuel truck and one car, which luckily stopped to give me a ride. Yeah, it was different back then!

[@hivolco151]

Wish I had been there in 1974 sounds amazing!!!

[@user-lx5uh1lq6r]

It's a jeep thing. They park next to each other all the time, doesn't matter how open the parking lot is. They also wave to each other but in Maui most are rentals so if they park next to you or wave they are most likely a local or know the jeep things. Love the video, Maui is my favorite and rth never gets old.

[@carolbuchel3011]

That hike was one of the highlights and one of the hardest things I've every done in my life due to severe arthritis. I love, love, loved the bamboo forest. We did the trip in one day, and my family patiently waited for me to come on the hike-that's a lot of love. Needless to say it was very late. It was well worth the 9 months of work leading up to it. So glad you enjoyed and shared with other people who might not have the chance.

[@JohnO318]

I have camped at the 7 pools camp site about 10 or 11 times back in the 1st half of the 1990's. That $30 park entrance fee did not exist when I lived there & you could camp there 3 days for free. Over the times I was blessed enough to camp there, I have jumped off that bridge over the 7 pools at least 50 times, then jumped from the next spot & so on. It was really popular to do that back in the 90 's. There wasn't those tents attached to cars back then. Those are so cool. You have just helped me with my bucket list when I (Lord-willing), go back to Maui someday. That headstart you got on the tourist crowd at Wainapanapa was so awesome!! I would have liked to have been there when that guy pulled up next to you. I would get out of my vehicle and start a long, meaningless conversation with him. I would say things like "Isn't it nice to get away from it all, where nobody's around?" LOLOL 😄 LOLOL

[@sandy89107]

I understand what Allison is saying about ppl needing to be right up next to you. It annoys me too and no matter where it is, I drawl a crowd 😆

[@timandfin]

😆😆

[@John8.7]

Yes, I agree as well. At least they can do every other parking stall >B-\

[@bjrnandersson4234]

On the Big Island there is a night dive you could do where you're surrounded by mantas

[@ChasingDifferentAdventures]

Wow Waterfalls after Waterfalls to other Waterfalls, into Cascades to the ocean ⛰🏞⛰🙋👍 spectacular hike. Thanks very much for sharing such an awesome location... I wouldn't mind doing a 360° there

[@maureencathers341]

Same same on the parking thing. No different than being in a public restroom: leave a space if there is one! Damn people!

[@kathleenbifulco8129]

I agree with you, it’s annoying, and that happens because people can’t think (or drive) for themselves, they have to follow someone else!

[@RetirementTravelers]

Perfect time lapse. That yellow sky, wow!

[@briski080]

Just some FYI. Jeepers tend to park/hang out together and 4Runner folks do the same. Now, what I find interesting is that Jeepers acknowledge other Jeepers, Wrangler. I have a 4Runner and I’ve followed and been followed other 4Runners on the Highway. Very similar to Motorcylist.

[@jordanhaymaker4210]

The waterfall hike at the end (and honestly this whole Maui series) just moved Hawaii up on my bucket list! Thanks so much for sharing your tips (especially the heads up on that guide app. I love stuff like that! 😎)

[@imscanon]

I was wishing you'd spend a 2nd night there so you had all day to go back slowly and see things. I bet you were too. Wow that was gorgeous!

[@TheDetourDuo]

Love how excited you got for camping!

[@jorgeyluz]

Love camping 🏕 too :)

[@TheDetourDuo]

@@jorgeyluz It's so freeing right! My favorite is camping under the stars

[@Jake-qi4if]

15:10 you guys should visit Havasu Falls in Arizona. Hands down the most beautiful place on earth

[@RKTravelandSports]

Absolutely wonderful, I would love to do that Camping, that was funny when the rainy time you playing music hehe lol😇🌧

[@Stonemasters11]

Enjoy how you folks are soaking it all in. Im from Oahu, born and raised, so it’s nice to see visitors getting the full essence of the islands. Maui No Ka Oi, least thats what they think

[@alaskangalb]

I agree, it seems better to do it in two days maybe three. Thanks for sharing.

[@TheRobkob]

Absolutely positively fantastic 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@HayNoxHouse]

Beautiful views beautiful music what a journey.Thank you for sharing

[@hhhmmmm906]

Wow,once again wonderful nice trip

[@saritamaharia8011]

Where did you guys camp for the night? It looks beautiful

[@Idieallot75]

Jeeps like Jeeps! That explains the parking situation.

[@MaryOKC]

Oh hey y’all I just ordered the orchid day back a few minutes ago and i have nowhere to where to wear it so I’m going to use it for groceries. LOL! 😆 from the emerald coast - you know.

[@michaellotito5465]

Really enjoyed joining you on your Maui adventure. Thanks for sharing.

[@paulp7365]

One of the highlights past Hana is the small Hawaiian church with the modest gravesite of Lindbergh among the tree-shaded grounds with a serene view out to sea.

[@vitoquochong3270]

Thanks best road trips couple!

[@brendanwhittaker338]

If anyone is planning on going on the Road to Hana anytime soon there is a really unique cliff jumping spot called Venus Pool or Waioka pool. This isn’t really a well known spot for tourists so it doesn’t get that crowded!

[@claytron3000]

You just have to trespass over private property. No biggie!

[@relaxcookingvlog1746]

Beautiful sharing! Big thumbs up.

[@MsCissyBlue]

When she broke out the uke = so great... my first video, probably hooked...

[@Dkilbane1]

I'm with you on the parking lot thing in most situations. When I come out to my car and someone parks right next to me and it's all open I get annoyed but sometimes if I notice the car is pretty nice I don't. When I had my Wrangler it didn't bother me if another Wrangler parked next to me I didn't mind because then I know that each of us have at least one side that won't get door dings.

[@orlandogreengirl3053]

So 2 things. So if you are driving a jeep other jeeps are going to park by you "Its a Jeep thing" also most all Jeeps wave at each other. #2 You said in previous video that you want to swim with sting rays go to Grand Cayman Island. They take you out to waiat high water and the Sting rays come to you. Yes I drive a jeep.

[@mpower6004]

Yes it happened to us many times in an empty parking lot with so many empty places and they could not find any other places but next to us , yes it can drive me crazy . But anyway , great scenery on the road to Hana also cool background music . This was the reason they when you guys asked us where we want you to go visit we suggested Hawai .

[@allanchu9098]

I agree with you, Fin, about how people just want to park next to you; no matter where your at. It bugs me as well, when you like to stay away from other cars that could potentially dent your car.

[@johnnyv5995]

Sunrise @Haleakala, truly spiritual. I sure hope you Guys drove around the backside and not go back they way you came. Did you stop @ Red Sand Beach? Gypsy is a good app, Shaka is just as good and little more humorous. If you are staying 10+ days visit Twin Falls & Garden of Eden on a separate day, this will free up more time and allow you to enjoy and complete the whole round trip in approx.12hrs

[@kjjohnson36]

That tent is awesome 😎

[@maxplanck9055]

The nicest pair of slackers on the Florida west coast!🤗❤️🇬🇧👍

[@TravelSmallLiveBig]

Oh yeah - the parking right next to you? It happens when you anchor your boat too. So many times we have been the only boat in a giant anchorage and here comes a boat and they drop their hook right next to us. The heck?!

[@alexisdial124]

With the parking thing, a lot of jeep people like to look for and park next to other jeeps, I find it funny but I catch myself doing it also, but with an empty parking lot they could've put a space or 2 between y'all

[@kkkennedy7054]

Awww you guys are so much fun to watch, we love pepper ❤️❤️ Safe travels

[@kymcrowart7876]

I agree with Allison about the parking! It’s hilarious but yet it never fails......lol

[@hoanglamluu8509]

Mặc dù không biết tiếng anh nhưng rất thích xem video của 2 bạn.

[@OnTheGoWithCarson]

Oh boy do I agree with the parking thing 😆 but worst of all is when you are on a treadmill at the gym and someone picks the one right next to you in a whole line up of empty treadmills Omgsh I hate it! But the road to Hana is stunning! I love the app you all are using. I’ve got to use it on my trip!

[@KakaBubus]

If you are obsessed of waterfalls, then you shall come to WA! So, many big waterfalls on the west side of the Cascades! Hawaii is beautyful though! Just came back from Oahu last week. ;)

[@alej8902]

Absolutely breathtaking views! Thank you for taking us along!

[@awanderingpalette]

Gorgeous timelapse! ❤️ Just downloaded the Gypsy Guide! So excited to check it out on my next trip! - also love the Jeep camping ⛺️

[@lostamonglocals5382]

Us too. That thing is hilarious

Really show that your stuff works!

[@jorgeyluz]

Nice photos nice video amigos

[@kelvinng1631]

OMG..I missed MAUI...Happy Anniversary to both of you! #ENJOYGUYS #GREATVIDEO👍👍❤️

[@maxplanck9055]

Nice improvised advertising fin! Was Tim laughing at the rehearsal too? I'm sure tripped travel gear will be a continued success even with fin's promo!🤗❤️🇬🇧👍

[@g15ification]

In Maui, try the poke at Tamura’s liquor store.

[@captainkirk8806]

Try pulling a 50 foot rig (truck and Trailer) parking at the very end of the lot so you can take up several spaces and someone just has to pull right in front of you..... NOT FUNNY!! Loved this set of videos. You guys captured a real good look at the beauty that is our 50th state. Great work!!!!! NEXT!!

[@bluesky_bluesea]

you guys was having a blast there. wonder how scare it was the night you spent in the camper :) love the vid.

[@leeannpaman1240]

I feel you regarding the parking situation. Whenever we go to the beach, people will come and sit right next to us, even though the whole beach is available. Go figure. Did you miss the Hulihuli chicken? It was right there next to Koki Beach. Sigh, if you did? I’m sorry for you. 😊

[@ourbluedemon3604]

100% on board with the parking lot issue. Great video as always, really enjoying the 'back catalog' as well!

[@RobHK]

This looks so awesome! Loved the video!

[@bonitaglover]

I get it; it's a weird pet peeve of mine too. I hate it when someone parks right in front or beside me in a wide open parking lot!

[@Teeezah]

Always park in the back in the corner in an empty lot!! I am the same way lol

[@casey8727]

Glad to hear I’m not the only one with parking issues. Happens to me all the time... so annoying! Why do people do that? Spent hours googling answers🤔

[@katewhite2465]

Hope you enjoyed my Maui home...you missed Tasaka Guri Guri in Kahului...Maui ice cream/sherbert...Maui No Ka Oi (Maui is the Best). E Malama Pono (Take Care)

[@libbyblackmon885]

Beautiful video guys! Maui is a fabulous place. Thanks for showing us all there is to do and see while there. I love the music that you add to your videos. It really helps to set the vibe of the things and places you are sharing with us.

[@HeTrainsMyHands]

In 2018 we did a hike on the road to Hana that the government recently closed down because of so many unfortunate deaths happening! Best hike of our lives though and we literally had a whole waterfall to ourself 🙏🏻 we really couldn't believe we made it through something so treacherous but insanely beautiful!

[@jenniferruch4189]

So fun watching your video. The roof top tent looked so fun! - we just did the road to Hana last week. The blow hole at black sands beach was just past the 2 fenced off caves where you stopped. 50 steps more toward the water at the next railing. Bummer you missed it this time. We didn't make it to the Garden of Eden the Ke'anae Arboretum. Hope to do that next time! Loving your videos, keep them coming.

[@mmeade9402]

Dont feel alone, I get irrationally aggravated when people park next to me in an empty/nearly empty parking lot as well. Like red faced barely control myself aggravated... lol I dont even know why. Just does.

[@davecurry3322]

Love the Maui videos. We didn’t make it all the way to Hanna last year because of Covid and lots of things shut down. Will definitely get there if we ever make it back to Maui.

[@kittykat7618]

Just got back from St. John it was the best there!

[@billybob7522]

Yes Alison, someone parking next to me when there's plenty of spare places is...bloody annoying! And yes Tim, that tree looked beautiful and ancient...reminded me of the film Avatar. Great series guys. Hawaii looks beautiful.

[@1PhoenixRisen]

This is my favorite video! Love it!

[@watchingvideos4309]

08:55 ITS A JEEP THING YOU WOULDN’T UNDERSTAND 😂 but really once I saw the other jeep makes 3 it made sense.

[@ajeber7447]

Wow thanks for taking me on your journey ❤️

[@topotone]

Oh yeah!!...that's what I'm talkin about. I recognize every little step on your journey. Was the road past the pools closed to thru traffic? That's a great way to avoid traveling back the way you came, but it's hit and miss whether you can get all the way around that direction. When open, it's awesome to go around into up-country Maui. You used to be able to get right underneath the big falls. I guess people may have been injured from falling rocks. SO funny about the people who will pull in right next to you.haha...really? They have the whole lot and want to be by your side. Well, as always, very fun to live vicariously thru you to my fav island. Another fav island, that you guys should consider, is Anguilla. Most incredible beach ever in Shoal Bay. Millie's Inn is the place to stay there. You guys would totally love Anguilla. Get in touch from my website, and I can tell you more. Here's my music and drone footage from our last trip there: kzbin.info/www/bejne/joLKp6uYgsqGbaM

[@kylieburton1970]

WHY??? Why are you parking right next to me when there is an entire lot???? Girl! Same! hahahaha....We love Maui! The first time we went we did the Gypsy tour of Rd to Hana and it was almost like having a local friend in the back seat! Highly recommend. Also it surprises me how many people do not take enough time to get to the "end" of the road and run out of time to do the bamboo forrest and the Pipiwai waterfall trail. Love the video and you guys are a riot! :)

[@mariondiemert430]

This was so beautiful! Thank you for sharing your trip with us.

[@dustinpettrey1933]

Beautiful

[@stephaniedavis1593]

Wow beautiful!!

[@barbyp9]

Great video guys, one question. Where is the first spot you stopped to camp? It had an amazing view

[@robertocal6543]

Another great vlog!!!! Absolutely amazing.....that’s it, that’s the comment!!!! Stay safe!

[@Tylachau]

Gypsy app is amazing!

[@ammansyed]

Great video you guys, best one that I've watched, great editing and drone shots. I have just done halfway to Hana, but definitely want to do it again right and see all those awesome shots you featured.

[@AbleHammer]

I know the feeling. It’s like being in an empty theater and people sit right next to you! 😳

[@jacksmith-yq5my]

Not only that but a guy who weighs 275 pounds, it happened to me and my GF.

[@vegan4life532]

Fun Video ... Mahalo !

[@louiseseaward9478]

Great vlog! Where do you suggest parking our camper van for the night along the road?

[@schoude52]

Just amazing!!! Absolutely beautiful video, although I have to admit, my anxiety picked up a little around those cliffs and signs of fatalities! Other than that it was fantastic! So glad you guys had a wonderful trip!

[@grantroberts7065]

Totally understand Finny's grief with people parking right next to you when there's plenty of other spots, for me they usually sit there with their engines running. I was sitting on the beach one time by myself, no one near me for 50 meters and 2 women came and sat 10ft away from me talking on their phones, they didn't stay for long after I pointed out this fact with a few strong words thrown in.

[@Kris4kiwi]

Black sand beach looked amazing was it hot to walk on?

[@CALTECH007]

Should have a little IZ playing in the background. You know I almost booked the Hana Hotel for our honeymoon in 1988 with out knowing where it was (instant divorce) no shopping. Any way ended up at Kapalua Hotel which was GREAT.

[@msgarciamayorca]

Hi guys! Great video. I am devouring all your tips for our upcoming trip to Maui. Can I please ask you, which type of camera do you use for this vlog? I saw Tim focus it on the rearview mirror of the car and noticed it's a Sony with a large lense. Can you please share which kind it is? Thank you so much!!!!!

[@halleyhaines3402]

Love the video but can you mention where did you rent a jeep with a connected tent to it and where were you camping at? That allow you to camp on the land with your car? Would love to do this!

[@hivolco151]

WHAT IS NOT TO LOVE??

[@billfields9716]

Got the first like 👍love you guys thanks for sharing today I'm going to watch a video now❤

[@timandfin]

Thanks for the comment and first like Bill!

[@gustavsson1977]

What an epic video!

[@benc1610]

Oh my! The parking BS...I would have gone nuts! I can't. lol

[@lauraserratovilla4227]

Can you give more info on where you guys exactly camped? Did you have to pay/get permits?

[@vincentventure]

Nice video! Very resourceful as we are also travelling to maui for camping. What is the app you used for the navigation to the road to Hana and the rental place for the jeep?
