Useful Tips

If you have only a few days, we recommend selecting your favorite destinations from the itinerary list. To add more excitement to your trip, you may want to include a traditional Hawaiian luau, visit a pineapple plantation, or spend time exploring the Reef Dancer glass-bottom boat tour. If you are visiting during whale season, be sure to add whale watching to your itinerary; it is a magical experience that you do not want to miss! For an unforgettable trip, be sure to book your reservations a month or two in advance.
