Detailed itinerary

The Road to Hana is a 64-mile scenic drive along Maui's northeastern coast, filled with lush rainforests, waterfalls, and stunning ocean views. Winding through over 600 curves and crossing 50 bridges, this journey offers numerous stops like Twin Falls, Wai’anapanapa State Park with its black sand beach, and the charming Hana town. Each mile reveals Maui’s natural beauty, from dense bamboo forests to cascading falls. A trip best taken slowly, it’s about the adventure, not just the destination.

Hawai'i’s Big Island is a realm of diverse landscapes and natural wonders, from active volcanoes to serene beaches. At Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park, witness lava flows and craters that shape the island, while Akaka Falls showcases a 442-foot waterfall in a lush rainforest. Explore Mauna Kea's summit for stargazing, black sand beaches at Punalu‘u, and the vibrant coral reefs of Kona. Each region offers a unique experience, making the Big Island a place of endless adventure and beauty.

Oahu, known as “The Gathering Place,” blends vibrant city life with natural beauty. Iconic Waikiki Beach offers surfing, shopping, and nightlife, while the historic Pearl Harbor National Memorial honors World War II heroes. For adventure, hike Diamond Head for panoramic views of Honolulu or snorkel at Hanauma Bay’s coral reefs. The North Shore draws surfers to legendary waves, and the lush rainforests of the island's interior offer scenic hikes. Oahu captures Hawaii’s spirit with a mix of culture, history, and breathtaking landscapes.

Kauai, the “Garden Isle,” captivates with its lush landscapes, towering cliffs, and hidden beaches. Waimea Canyon, often called the “Grand Canyon of the Pacific,” reveals dramatic red and green vistas, while the Nā Pali Coast enchants with rugged cliffs and crystal-clear waters ideal for hiking and kayaking. Hanalei Bay’s serene beaches invite relaxation and water sports. With waterfalls, rainforests, and picturesque valleys, Kauai offers a tranquil escape and showcases Hawaii’s untamed natural beauty.
