Hawaii Four Island Holiday - Hawaiian Hula Hoppers

Explore the diverse cultures of the Pacific Island nations, including Hawaii, Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, Tahiti, and Aotearoa (New Zealand). Visit six authentic village replicas, each representing a Polynesian island, and revel in hands-on activities as cultural ambassadors showcase traditional dance, music, and crafts. From seeing a young Samoan warrior climb a 40-foot coconut tree to witnessing the Māori warrior dance, this immersive encounter 
provides fascinating insight into the heritage of Polynesia.

Visit Kauai’s most awe-inspiring geological wonder, known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. Carved by the Waimea River and a volcano collapse over ten million years ago, this vast canyon spans about 14 miles long and is over 3,000 feet deep. Take in the impressive sights of greenery draping over bright red rock formations as far as the eye can see. If we’re lucky, we may even see a vibrant rainbow arching above!

Learn about a pivotal moment in United States history and pay respects to the thousands who lost their lives during the attack on Pearl Harbor. The USS Arizona Memorial is above the remains of the original ship, where at least 900 crew members lay to rest. Watch closely as the tanks leaking deep below bring oil droplets to the surface, known as the “black tears of the Arizona.” *Tickets to the USS Arizona Memorial are subject to availability through the NPS.

Explore the lush Waikapu Valley filled with vibrant flowers, swaying palms, and rows of exotic crops. We take a relaxing tram ride through the grounds as a guide shares insights about Hawaii’s agricultural history and local plants, such as sugarcane and pineapples. A highlight of our visit is the fascinating coconut husking demonstration!

Named an International Biosphere Reserve and UNESCO World Heritage Site for its extraordinary natural diversity, this protected landscape encompasses six climate zones! From lava fields and craters to deserts and lush rainforest along rugged coastline, there’s no shortage of natural wonders. It’s also home to one of Earth’s most active volcanoes, Kilauea. We may even get a chance to walk through a 500-year-old lava cave, Thurston Lava Tube!

Discover Hawaii’s vibrant capital city on a guided tour featuring several historical landmarks, such as Pearl Harbor National Memorial, National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific at Punchbowl Crater, King Kamehameha statue, and Iolani Palace, America’s only royal residence. We also admire the island’s stunning natural wonders, including Halona Beach Cove, a famous filming location.
