The main mode of public transportation in Maui is the Maui Bus, which operates several daily routes through large towns like Wailuku, Kihei, Lahaina, Wailea, and Kahalui. The bus routes don't cover the island comprehensively however, so most travellers in Maui opt to hire a car; note that hired cars must be booked well in advance as they can sell out, especially on holiday weekends.
