Smart Travels Pacific Rim with Rudy Maxa: Maui & Hawaii's Big Island / Oahu & Kauai (MOD) (DVD Movie)

Two episodes plus bonus clips: Maui and Hawaii's Big Island: Pacific cultures converge on Hawaii. Rudy begins on Maui, where he braves the twisting road to Hana past waterfalls and tropical splendor. Fire-dancers light up the night sky, and we sway to slack-key guitar. Later, Rudy hops over to Hawaii's Big Island for ancient petroglyphs and a helicopter tour of the world's most active volcano. *Silver Telly Award--Travels and Tourism Oahu and Kauai: Sunning, swimming, and surfing at Waikiki Beach are just the start in Honolulu. Rudy explores Hawaii's Polynesian roots at the Bishop Museum, remembers WWII at Pearl Harbor, and pays homage to King Kamehameha. From Oahu we head north to "the Garden Island," Kauai. Rudy hikes the Waimea Canyon and kayaks past traditional villages. The Allerton Gardens show off rare plants, and restored homes of planters recall days when sugar was king.
