This extinct volcano is the backdrop to Waikiki beach and offers superb views from the summit. We then visit the exclusive Kahala residential area where some of Hawaii’s most spectacular homes are to be found. You will pass by Iolani Palace, the King Kamehameha Statue, and the Governor’s Mansion.

Day 3
Honolulu – Big Island (Kona Coast)
Time to explore Waikiki beach on your own this morning before meeting your driver for the short transfer to Honolulu Airport for your brief flight to Kona, on the Big Island of Hawaii. Upon arrival in Kona, transfer to your hotel. Settle in and perhaps take an evening stroll along the beautiful shore.
Day 4
Big Island
This morning embark on a tour of Volcanoes National Park. (Note: because this is an active volcano area, last minute diversions may be necessary for safety’s sake). Drive down the slopes of Pele’s home, Kilauea, passing Ka Lae, the southernmost tip of the United States. Your Escorted Island Tour also takes you to the Kailua Kona area and its famed Royal Kona Coffee Museum where you will be able to taste Kona Coffee during your stop over. View the picturesque Kealakekua Bay as well as Captain Cook’s Monument. Return to your hotel in early evening.
Day 5
Big Island
Enjoy a full day of the Hawaiian beaches and your resort hotel. You may additionally choose to take an optional evening tour to the summit of Mauna Kea for some of the best star gazing to be found. Hawaii’s Big Island is home to one of the most renowned astronomical sites on the planet. Perched high atop Maunakea, rising 4205 meters above sea level, 13 telescopes representing 11 countries are watching the heavens and making discoveries beyond our wildest imaginations.
Day 6
Big Island – Kauai
Transfer to the airport for your flight to Kauai, the oldest island in the Hawaiian chain. Kauai’s first settlers appeared in approximately the 4th or 5th century A.D. Centuries passed before Captain Cook found Kauai on his voyage to Alaska. Kauai’s residents are proud of the fact that it was the only Hawaiian island never conquered by King Kamehameha’s forces. Upon arrival, you will be transferred to your hotel. The remainder of the day is at leisure to enjoy the beaches and the unique lush beauty of Kauai. You may also choose to join us this evening on an optional sunset cruise along the stunning Na-Pali coastline. This rugged stretch of coast is accessible only by air or boat and has been the setting of many Hollywood movies over the years, including King Kong in 1976.
Day 7
Kauai
Today we take a full day island tour. You will quickly understand why Kauai is nicknamed the Garden Isle. Celebrated for its brilliant emerald green tropical scenery, your tour will visit Bali Hai and Hanalei Bay, made famous by the movie South Pacific, as well as the beautiful Waimea Canyon.
