Hawaii Island Hopping
10 Nights Tour from £2,429 per Person Including Flights
Overview
Begin on one of the world’s most iconic beaches – Waikiki Beach. Take a surf lesson, sip a Mai Tai cocktail, shop til you drop or just people-watch – it will be a great start to your Hawaiian experience. Then take the short flight to Hawaii Island, also known as Big Island, at place to marvel at the volcanoes and lava flows as well as relax by the beach, cycle or play golf. Next stop is Maui, with its unspoiled coastline and signature beach Kaanapali. Your final destination is the stunning island of Kauai, where you can admire rugged canyons, sheer cliffs and cascading waterfalls.
We have created this itinerary, to experience the best of Hawaii visiting four different islands over ten days. However if you want to spend more time in any particular place, or only visit two or three islands, then we can tailor the itinerary to your wishes. We have hand-picked four star hotels for this holiday, but if you would rather treat yourself to something more luxurious on one or more of the islands then we can choose different hotels to suit you.
