I rented the GyPSy Guide from a resort right up the road from where we were staying in Kihei. It was a very good investment. The Gypsy guide gives you all the information you need as you make the trip to Hana. I had not taken the trip before and had no idea of where the things were I would... More

My partner and I hate being stuck on tour buses with a bunch of people and being forced to stop where everyone else wants to stop. This tool was perfect for our drive to Hana. Part of the whole experience is driving on the narrow roads so it's a must do. The gps guide pointed out all points of interest,... More

Using the GPS guide to Hana was terrific - loved being able to take our time and stop when we wanted and make detours as we saw fit. The guide came packed with great directions, little side anecdotes (enjoyed the Shark King legend) and was truly a helpful item to have with us. I've done the Hana drive once before... More

This is my second time to Maui and 3rd time to Hana. The other two times were with a Mini-Coach tour and with a hiking company. This was, by far, the best $40 investment I made on the trip. The Mini-Coach tour was nice, but using the GyPSy was HALF to the cost of getting ONE person on that tour.... More

This was probably the best $39 spent so far! The GPS was great! Lots of information about the area, history and when you stopped, so did the narrative. We stopped where we probably would have driven by and saw things that we might not have. We encountered some rain along the way and a bit of car/motion sickness. Some of... More

It seems like a lot at first, but we found that it was really useful. Had a lot of good and interesting history and is designed to give you a heads up as you approach turn offs that you may otherwise miss. I believe we enjoyed the Hana drive much more because of this product. More

My family picked up GyPSy guided tour the morning of our trip to Hana and it was the best money we spent in Maui. The kids (4 and 7) imediately named our GyPSy guide narrator Fredrick and we were off and running. Fredrick kept us entertained and the kids started asking when Fredrick would add to his story as we... More

Initially got this GPS-activated audio guide for a day trip to Haleakaala - kept it for 3 days I had done extensive research using Formmers and other sources. I also had my faithful TomTom accompaning me. However, I still felt that at $39 this was worth every bit of money spent. The guide activates as you drive and, doesn't repeat... More

Took the GyPSy guide along with us on the road to Hana. Very informative narration and took us to a few spots we likely would have missed. Worth the $40 as you learn a lot and helps with directions too. Very easy to use. More

Having used a standard audio tour on a trip along Australia's Great Ocean Road (and found it useful and entertaining) we thought we'd step it up a notch and try this GPS-activated audio guide for a day trip from our hotel in Ka'anapali along the road to Hana (and back). At $40 we thought it was a good price for... More
