HAWAIIAN EXPLORER
September 18 - 26, 2016
TOUR ITINERARY
Sunday, September 18: Arrive Honolulu, Oahu & Waikiki
Motorcoach from Central PA to airport for flight to Hawaii. Welcome to Hawaii. In the traditional Aloha spirit, you’ll
be greeted at the airport with a flower lei. Explore your hotel in the heart of Waikiki Beach and spend the rest of
the afternoon as you like: dive into the warm gentle waves of the Pacific or relax with a tropical drink poolside. At 6
p.m., gather for a Hawaiian-style Welcome Reception with your Travel Director and fellow travelers. Hotel: Marriott
Waikiki Beach, Waikiki (Welcome Reception)
Monday, September 19: Pearl Harbor & Honolulu sightseeing
Begin your exploration of Oahu. During a visit to Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial, you’ll be moved
by this memorial to the World War II military personnel still entombed in the ship’s hull since the fatal attack
in 1941. Return to Honolulu to see the splendid Iolani Palace, former home to Hawaii’s last monarchs, and the
iconic King Kamehameha I statue at Aliiolani Hale. View the current state capitol building, built in a Hawaiian
version of modernist Bauhaus architecture. The rest of the afternoon is yours to spend relaxing on the beach,
doing some shopping or just exploring. This evening, join your Travel Director and travelling companions for
dinner at a local restaurant. (Full Breakfast, Dinner)
Friday, September 23 and Saturday, September 24: Maui Free Time
Savour two full days in paradise as you chart your own course through Maui’s wonderlands. The possibilities are
endless. Spend some time on the three-mile long white sand beach or unwind at the resort’s sparkling pool.
Take an afternoon to explore the old whaling village of Lahaina with its trendy art galleries and welcoming cafes.
Maybe take a surfing lesson from a local or play 18 holes at one of two championship golf courses overlooking
the sea—keep an eye out for breaching whales in season while you’re teeing off! Rise early and ascend to
the summit of Mount Haleakala to see the sunrise bathe the island in light or make the scenic journey to the
remote town of Hana on Maui’s rugged eastern coast. Opt for a helicopter flightseeing excursion to get an
eye-popping view of the island’s varied landscape and waterfalls. During your stay, enjoy a presentation with a
Local Specialists and learn about the exotic flora and fauna of the islands. Join your travelling companions on
one evening for a festive Luau Farewell Dinner, featuring a sumptuous buffet, tropical cocktails and the songs
and dances of old Hawaii and the South Pacific. Relish the scene as the rising moon transforms the seas into
liquid silver, and marvel as the stars begin to brighten the great night sky.
(Full Breakfast each day, Farewell Dinner)
Sunday, September 25 - Monday, September 26: Depart Maui / Overnight flight back to Central PA
A hui hou…until we meet again. Transfer to the airport for your flight home. (Full Breakfast)
Hotels and itinerary are subject to change at anytime without notification and/or compensation.
Tuesday, September 20: Oahu, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park & Kona
Your morning begins with a short, scenic flight to the Big Island of Hawaii. Travel through lush forest preserves
before arriving at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that’s home to both Mauna
Loa, the world’s largest volcano, and Kilauea, its most active. Hawaii’s landscape changes constantly as Kilauea
spews lava that flows down to the sea—it’s been erupting almost continuously since 1983. Enjoy spectacular
views of the caldera and crater and learn about the geology of the islands at the Jaggar Museum. Then take
a short walk through a fern forest to get inside an ancient cave-like lava tube. After an included lunch, reach
the golden Kona coast and your stunning oceanfront resort.
Hotel: Sheraton Kona, Kona (Full Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner)
Wednesday, September 21: Kona Free Time
Wake to the sound of the sea and explore one of the most beautiful areas in the world on your own today.
Options abound: don a snorkel and mask to see some of Hawaii’s colorful and varied marine life; descend
into the ocean depths on a submarine to explore a natural coral reef and its marine inhabitants; experience
a spectacular helicopter flightseeing excursion over Big Island; or just relax and enjoy the pool and other
facilities at your oceanfront resort. This evening, perhaps join an optional excursion to a working ranch for
dinner and entertainment. (Full Breakfast)
Thursday, September 22: Hilo & Maui
Soar high above the Pacific again as you fly to Maui, the Magic Isle, home to endless white-sand beaches,
crystal-clear waters and luxuriant tropical foliage. Travel into the countryside to visit a local farm and learn
about the sustainable agriculture on the islands. Then toast your host with a glass of wine and indulge in a
Be My Guest lunch serving up delicious Hawaiian specialties made with the freshest local ingredients. Check
into your beachfront resort and relax for the evening. Formerly a royal retreat, spectacular Kaanapali Beach is
often ranked as one of America’s finest beaches.
Hotel: Royal Lahaina Resort, Kaanapali (Full Breakfast, Be My Guest Dining)
