You can certainly get around Maui’s beach parks without a rental car, but we wouldn’t recommend it. There’s not much of a public transportation network on the island, and it can get expensive to pay for cabs all the time. Renting a car will also allow you to take some of Maui’s gorgeous scenic drives […]
We’d recommend visiting Sedona, AZ in the spring, between March and May. Arizona gets pretty hot during the summer, but the springtime weather features temperatures between the mid-60s and the low 80s with little to no humidity. Spring is also when the desert flowers bloom, so the area’s distinctive red rocks are lit up with […]
There are a ton of places where you can watch a gorgeous Maui sunrise during your time on the island, but there’s one spot that stands above the rest – quite literally. About 75% of the island of Maui is covered by Haleakala, an enormous shield volcano that last erupted about 500 years ago. The […]
Horseshoe Bend is an extremely popular destination for tourists, so it’s probably best to visit during the off-season.

There are plenty of places to see a gorgeous Maui sunrise on the island, but perhaps none is better than the summit of Haleakala. “House of the Sun ” in Hawaiian, Haleakala is a massive shield volcano that actually covers about 75% of the island. In traditional Hawaiian mythology, the crater at the volcano’s summit […]
Maui’s beach parks are spectacular on any side of the island, but the beaches on the leeward side are generally considered to be the most beautiful. To save you a Google search, “leeward” is a term that refers to the side sheltered from the wind. On Maui, the wind tends to blow from the northeastern […]
The Grand Canyon is one of the most unique and beautiful sights in the world and is only a two-hour drive away from Sedona, Arizona. If you find yourself in the Sedona area and you’re considering a day trip to the Grand Canyon, we highly recommend going, especially if you’ve never seen it before. At […]
If you’re in a bit of a rush, there are plenty of Gettysburg ghost tours that will only take an hour or less. Tragic events like the Battle of Gettysburg often leave deep scars on the local community, so it’s not hard to see why the site of the Civil War’s bloodiest battle is also […]
