DAY 1: ARRIVAL ON OAHU
Arrive in Honolulu and settle into Waikiki, where high-rises soften into sand and sea. Diamond Head rises quietly at the edge of the shoreline. The air carries salt and warmth, and the pace begins to ease. An early evening walk along the beach brings a first sense of place. Night falls gently, with the sound of waves close by.
Included:
- Arrive at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL)
- Pick up your car hire
- Night at The Ambassador Hotel of Waikiki, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
DAYS 2-3: OAHU
Spend the following days exploring Oahu at your own pace. We recommend climbing Diamond Head for a wide view over Honolulu and the Pacific. Drive to the North Shore, where waves break heavily along open beaches.
Included:
- Leisure days
- Night at The Ambassador Hotel of Waikiki, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
DAY 4: OAHU → KAUAI
Just a short flight away, Kauai will greet you with dense greenery and scenic roads that wind through. The island feels less shaped, more natural, almost untouched. Drive through tunnels of trees toward the coast.
Included:
- Domestic flight Honolulu → Lihue
- Night at Sheraton Kauai Coconut Beach Resort
DAYS 5-6: KAUAI
Spend the following days exploring Kauai at your own pace. Head inland to Waimea Canyon, where deep reds and ochres carve through the land. Lookouts reveal vast, layered valleys that feel both distant and immediate. Travel north to Hanalei, where mountains fold sharply into the sea. The bay sits wide and calm, its surface shifting gently with the light.
- Leisure days
- Night at Sheraton Kauai Coconut Beach Resort
DAY 7: KAUAI → BIG ISLAND
Touch down in Kona and pick up your car hire, the best way to move around the island. The drive south traces dry lava fields that fall sharply into the Pacific. Settle into the warm air and the slower cadence of the coast. As evening comes, the horizon softens into deep orange over black volcanic rock.
Included:
- Domestic flight Kona → Kahului
- Night at Royal Kona Resort
DAYS 8-11: BIG ISLAND
Spend the following days exploring the Big Island at your own pace. We suggest starting to drive along the Kona coastline, where yu have the opportunity to snorkel in clear, calm bays edged by dark lava.
Drive north towards the Kohala Coast, where the landscape turns greener and more open. Walk among the petroglyph fields at Puako, where thousands of carvings mark centuries of Polynesian life. Head south and inland towards Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Walk across hardened lava fields where heat still lingers beneath the surface.
Included:
- Leisure days
- Night at Royal Kona Resort
DAY 12: BIG ISLAND - MAUI
Fly to Maui and pick up your car hire before heading to the coast. The scenery softens - greener, more sculpted, with long stretches of sand. Settle near Ka’anapali Beach, where the ocean shifts through shades of turquoise. The pace here is slower, perfect for ultimate relaxation beneath the palm.
Included:
- Domestic flight Kona → Kahului
- Night at Royal Lahaina Resort & Bungalows
DAYS 13-15: MAUI
On day 13, set out early by boat towards Molokini Crater, a crescent of volcanic rock rising from clear water. Beneath the surface, coral and fish move in dense, shifting colour. Continue to Turtle Arches, where sea turtles drift through lava formations. Lunch is taken on deck, with the coastline faint in the distance.
On the following days, explore at your own pace. Follow the winding road to Hana, where the journey matters more than the destination. The route curves through rainforest, past waterfalls and small roadside stands. Alternatively, rise early for the ascent of Haleakalā. At the summit, dawn spreads slowly across a vast volcanic crater, the colours muted and surreal. Back at sea level, the beaches offer warmth and stillness.
Included:
- 1 x sea excursion & half-day snorkelling at Molokini & Turtle arches (with breakfast & lunch included)
- Night at Royal Lahaina Resort & Bungalows
DAY 16: DEPART FROM MAUI
Enjoy your last morning in Hawaii and soak in the stunning landscapes before heading to the airport, carrying with you memories of this once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
Included:
- Drop off your car hire
- Depart from Kahului Airport (OGG)
