Mama's Fish House Best of IgoUgo

Restaurant

Quote:
It was the most beautiful place to eat. It was sea side, at sunset. All restaurants in Hawaii are open air. You could see and hear the waves crashing. Food was Hawaiian and all grown on the island. I ate things I had never heard of before and it was wonderful. Ono fish, the best. Wasabi potatoes.

Maui Downhill Bicycle Safaris Best of IgoUgo

Attraction | "Maui Downhill"

Quote:
They pick you up from your hotel. Take you to the top of Mt Haleakula (dormant volcano). It is about an 1 1/2 trip to the top. Then bikes, windsuits, helmets are given out and everyone starts downhill. A van follows behind the group. Lunch is provided about 3/4 downhill. It even include a trip at the bottom through a pineapple field and a Eucalyptus Forest.
