"Our guide Kristin encouraged us to experience Maui with all our senses: hiking through magnificent forest, swimming in and swinging into waterfall pools, climbing into secluded spots, trying edible fruits and admiring flowers. Her extensive knowledge about the land, plants and people, included fascinatingtales about Maui history, culture and traditions."
