Getting around Kahului

Kahului has several public transportation options including taxis and buses which are ideal for getting around the city quickly, but to truly experience this stunning region to the fullest, a car rental is highly recommended.

Getting from the Airport to the City

Kahului (OGG) is incredibly popular with travellers because it is the main airport for Maui, therefore you can expect the ground transportation to be fairly good. As well as a number of car rental companies located within the airport, there is also a taxi rank outside. The fare into the centre of Kahului will be pretty cheap, but check the price with your driver before departing. If you prefer, there is a shuttle bus travelling direct to several local hotels, but check the route beforehand.
