Top tips for hiring a car in Maui

  • To hire a car in Maui, you must possess a current driver's licence that’ll not expire while you are in possession of the vehicle. If you don’t have a local driving licence, you can use a licence from your home country with an international licence. You should also bring your passport with you, as it might be required in processing your car hire request.
  • Driving a vehicle in Maui is a direct consent to urine, blood and breath tests for alcohol. Your blood alcohol content should not exceed 0.08%. Also, the law of the land dictates that all front and back seat passengers buckle up at all times. Children must also be restrained in authorised car seats at all times.
  • Make sure you are familiar with some of Maui’s local traffic laws, so that you may operate your hire car safely. For instance, given that many of the city’s roads are single lanes, you are required by law to give other motorists the right of way if you’re driving below the speed limit. You should also never leave children under nine years inside an unattended car. You can make a U-turn as long as there is no sign prohibiting it and it is safe to do so. Keep in mind that double parking is not allowed, especially in highly populated areas.

  • Should I hire a car in Maui?

    Hiring a car in Maui is a wise way to explore the picturesque region. Hiring a car is basically necessary when you are planning on seeing all the island has to offer. Given that Maui is such an extensive island, taking Ubers and taxis becomes expensive compared to hiring a vehicle. This also saves more money and time when going for a dinner date in Lahaina, snorkelling or visiting attractions like Haleakala National Park. Moreover, Maui lacks a robust public transportation system, which makes hiring a car a convenient and affordable method to get around. It’s important to note that many areas in the region can only be accessed by car. Additionally, having a vehicle of your own lets you travel whenever and wherever you like, rather than sticking to the timetable of a local bus line.

  • What is driving like in Maui?

    While Maui is generally known for its favourable weather conditions, the region can also be pretty wet depending on the time of year you visit. If you want to drive your hire car during the rainy season, be sure to reduce your speed limit for safety purposes. In the event that you are ever trapped in a storm, it's crucial that you use your headlights and windscreen wipers. It would be helpful to research the main roads in the area, as they connect several major cities in the region.

  • How old do you have to be to hire a car in Maui?

    The minimum age to hire a car in Maui is usually 18 years. However, some car hire companies require you to be at least 21 years old. Younger car hirers in Maui will also likely pay a young driver surcharge, to offset the risk of damage, accidents and insurance costs.
