There is no need to worry about whether you can find dependable transportation once you reach your destination – Maui.
However, just because you can find car rental agencies at Kahului Airport, Kapalua Airport, and Hana Airport does not necessarily mean one will be available. It is always in your best interest to call and reserve a car before you arrive. If you do not have a rental car, you will more than likely miss out on many of the unique and wonderful experiences that you can only get to with your transportation.
When you are planning your trip to Maui, you should talk with your hotel, condo, or any rental agent that you are using to see if they have any package deals for accommodations and transportation. Many of the accommodations now offer such packages so you can enjoy your vacation and see sights that are unattainable without a vehicle.
Just like in the continental United States, you can find all the major car rental companies. The list of these along with their contact information includes:
Alamo
800-327-9633
Avis
800-321-3712
Budget
800-527-0700

There are also some other rental car agencies that are local and will give you just as much car and confidence as the larger ones. These include:
Hawaiian Discount Car Rentals
They offer discounted rates on vehicles provided by national companies such as Avis, Thirfty and Budget. You can select from Jeeps, SUVs, Convertibles and more.
While cruising around Maui you may wish to look the part of a movie star or at least enjoy a ride with the top down. You can do this by driving around in some in the exotic cars you find to rent which include such models as vipers, vettes, Porsches, and others. However, you had better be ready to shell out around $ 225 to $ 400 per day. You can find them for less but for only half a day instead of a full day. A few of the companies that offer these exotic rides include:
Island Riders in Kihei
874-0311
Aloha Toy Store in Lahaina
662-0888
Hawaiian Riders in Lahaina
662-4386
However, you may wish to ride around on a motorcycle on scooter. If so, you are in luck. There are a few places where you can rent a motorcycle and ride around with in style. For motorcycles, you can call Aloha Toy Store in Lahaina at 662-0888, Hawaiian Riders in Lahaina at 662-4386, and Island Rider in Kihei at 974-0311. Now, do not faint when you hear the cost.

Some people think they desire a four-wheel drive vehicle; however, in Maui there are not many places to use this type of vehicle. The only real place to drive a 4WD is some remote areas in West Maui such as the Blue Pool. In most cases, the money you spend is not worth the time you can enjoy using this type of off the road vehicle.
As you can see, you do not have to worry about finding transportation all over Maui including rental vehicles of all kinds. Just remember you will need to bring along your drivers license in order to rent any vehicle.
