Handi Guides

Finally....... a visitor publication available in print, online, in social media (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram) is mobile device friendly, and coming soon a downloadable APP, which enables visitors to quickly and easily locate an activity the whole family can do while vacationing on Maui. After all, you came to relax on vacation not spend valuable hours of your vacation trying to find just the right activity!
Families on vacation can range not only in ages but also in their physical abilities. From young families with children on school break to baby boomers enjoying their retirement years. Maui has activities everyone can enjoy, and with Handi Guides you now have a place where you can find information on those activities! Handi Guides lists over 300 activities which fall in over 60 different activity categories, including a section where the activity cost ranges from Free to $3!
Activities from Arts to Ziplines!
Before Handi Guides came along, in order for visitors to locate activities on the island they would spend hours aimlessly flipping through pages of various publications, looking at various advertisements often not finding what they had hoped to find. They would possibly check with the concierge services available at their resort, possibly go to a timeshare presentation and be awarded a "FREE" luau for their several hour commitment, or possibly join one of those "get acquainted" functions at your resort's pool.
Handi Guides sees things a little different than other visitor publications. We believe everyone should have access to information, and have the ability to choose for themselves the best activity for their family's needs, desires or requirements, not the concierge who will direct you to the company who pays the highest commissions!
There is nothing wrong with this type of service; convenience is always going to be the choice for many, it just doesn't HAVE to be the choice for all. Also, this convenience-type-service is rarely free. It will of course be free to you, but activity companies pay booking agents a commission fee for choosing their company. Obviously this type of service has been around for many years and will be here for many years to come, however Handi Guides feels activity information should be available to everyone and anyone who wants to make their own decisions, especially when it comes to such a valuable commodity....your family!
After all, you do not want to be booked with a particular company for the sole reason the booking agent received a really good pay off; but rather know that the activity company chosen was based on your family's individual needs and requirements, this will result in you feeling confident that you found the right activity company for you!
Handi Guides does not book activities, but we do suggest that you let the activity company know that you found them by using Handi Guides, and ask if they offer any "Direct Booking Discounts". Not all companies offer discounts, but quite a few do and all you need to do is ask!
Maui is a beautiful island and one that everyone should get the opportunity to experience, regardless of your physical capabilities. There are many activities here on Maui for everyone to enjoy, and finally there is a resource that enables you to locate them........Handi Guides!
