The islands of Hawaii beckon their visitors with true Aloha warmth. Enjoy your vacation, whether its a family trip, exciting adventure, honeymoon or simply lounging on the beach. Hawaiian open their arms, their culture and their way of life, in visiting you to experience their genuine Aloha spirit.
If you are a first time traveler to Hawaii, you may want to stay on either Oahu or Maui, as these are the most popular Hawaiian Islands. If you can only stay three to five nights, we recommend you pick one island, rent a a car and explore everything that island has to offer. You’ll be amazed all the incredible scenery and variety of activities that are available.
If you are planning a stay of seven or eight nights, then you can easily visit two islands, and if you have ten nights or more, you can comfortably visit up to three islands during your trip and explore what each has to offer before flying to the next island for another adventure. A popular itinerary would be so stay on Oahu for three nights, fly over to Maui for four then fly to Kauai or Hawaii’s Big Island for three more nights.
There is a misconception that a Hawaii tour is too structured versus booking a Hawaii vacation package on your own. It’s true that some tours plan out a lot of activates, but what travelers are not aware of, is that there are different types of tours. The leisure style tour vacations allow lots of free time, while saving you 30 to 40% off the hotel and tour rates.
Most people end up wanting to do these popular tours, so why not have them included up front? You also have the services of a host available to you to help recommend shopping, popular restaurants and more. If you are planning a trip to Hawaii, why not have a travel specialist price both a vacation package and a hosted tour for you so that you can compare the rates. You might be surprised how much you can save.
