  DAY 1: BIG ISLAND ARRIVAL

Welcome to Hawaii. Upon landing at the airport, your driver will meet you at baggage claim and escort you to your hotel. Larger than all of the other Hawaiian islands combined, The Big Island is not only the epicentre of the region's volcanic activity but also a place of dizzying diversity. After checking in to your hotel, enjoy the rest of the day to explore and get acquainted with your new surroundings.

DAY 2: BIG ISLAND HELICOPTER ADVENTURE

This morning you will be picked up and brought to the east side of the island- to Hilo to begin your volcano adventure (estimated drive time is two hours). Upon arrival at the heliport, check in for your helicopter ride above the volcanoes! After landing you will meet your expert driver-guide who will take you on a journey through the remote and rugged landscape of Kaʻū — home to Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park, historic farming plantations and the famous black sand beach of
Punaluʻu. Some of the highlights of your private tour include:
• Discover all the “must-see” spots within the Park; including Jaggar Museum, Nāhuku (Thurston Lava Tube) and Halema‘uma‘u Crater
• Immerse yourself in stories of Hawaiian legends and mythology, with a focus on Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of fire, lightning, wind and volcanoes
• Lunch at the Volcano House – Perched on the edge of the Kilauea Crater

After touring your driver will drive you back across the island, back to the Kona side where your resort is located. Have the rest of the evening at leisure.

DAY 3: MANTA RAY SNORKELING

This evening, board your private catamaran and set sail in time to view the beautiful Kona sunset. Your boat will offer ample seating, lighting and bathrooms. After the sun sets and you've had time
to take in the scenery, you will prepare for a private night snorkel adventure. You will need to wear a swimsuit and a wetsuit top will be provided. The manta ray is among the largest fishes in the ocean with wingspans of up to 20 feet and more. The Kona Coast offers the best opportunity to encounter these amazing creatures. At night,
spotlights are used to attract mantas that feed off the plankton illuminated by the light. As intimidating as these otherworldly mantas look, they are actually quite friendly and do not have
stingers. After an hour's swim with these beautiful creatures, you will return to the pier and transfer back to your hotel.

DAY 4: BIG ISLAND TO MAUI

The morning is at your leisure to do as you please. In the early afternoon, you will be transferred to the airport in time for your flight to Maui. Upon landing, your car and driver will take you to your
hotel. After checking in and freshening up, the rest of the day is at your own leisure.

DAY 5: THE ROAD TO HANA

Early this morning your driver guide will pick you up for a day of adventure and incredible sights along the Road to Hana and looping around the entire mountain! First, if hungry, you will make a
stop for breakfast at a local favourite. Along the Road to Hana, your guide will make numerous stops, providing ample time to explore the highlights of Ke’anae Peninsula, Hanawi waterfall and the
black sand beach at Wai’anapanapa. Enjoy freshly baked banana bread while taking in the remote coastline views and make a stop for
lunch in the open-air dining room at Travaasa Hana Hotel. The views on this trip are stunning and will provide endless sights of waterfalls, pristine valleys and spectacular seascapes. There is also an opportunity for swimming and short walks by various loop trails.
Arrive back at your hotel at around 5:00 PM. The rest of the evening is at your leisure.

DAY 6: TURTLE TOWN KAYAKING AND SNORKELING

Today you will explore the magnificent Turtle Town on a private kayaking tour. After a water safety and paddling orientation, depart from beautiful Makena Landing in the heart of Turtle Town. As
you glide across the pristine clear waters you’ll enjoy stunning views of Haleakala summit, Molokini Crater, Pu`u Olai, the Makena/Wailea coastline and surrounding Islands, including the Big Island on a clear day! Along the journey, you will stop at one of the many snorkel spots Turtle Town has to offer so you can begin to explore this incredible underwater world! This area offers unique reef structures and underwater caves and turtle sightings are guaranteed! Once you return to your hotel, your afternoon is at leisure.

DAY 7: DAY AT LEISURE AND SUNSET SAIL

Today will be yours to spend at your leisure, relax and take advantage of your hotel's luxurious amenities. In the evening, enjoy expansive unobstructed views of the beautiful Maui coastline during a private
sunset cruise. You will meet your captain at the beach for boarding. This experience begins approximately 3 hours prior to sunset so that you may enjoy a full spectrum of colours as the sky transitions into night. During this leisurely cruise, you will be able to escape the hustle of the city and relax as you sail on calm waters.

DAY 8: MAUI TO OAHU

This morning, you will be transferred from your hotel to the airport for a brief flight to the island of Oahu. Like Honolulu-born former President Obama, Oahu is proud of its multicultural heritage, and through it pulses the lifeblood of Hawaiian traditions. In the afternoon, meet your guide for an adventure on Oahu's North Shore, one of the most iconic regions that defines the Hawaiian Islands. If there is such a thing as a perfect wave, you’ll likely find it on Oahu’s North Shore. The big, glassy winter waves of this legendary surf mecca attract the
best surfers in the world! Stretching for more than 7 miles, the beaches of the North Shore host the world’s premier surfing competitions during the peak winter months. Here your guide will bring you to one of the top beaches for a Surfing Lesson or you can visit small tributaries for Stand up Paddle (SUP) Board Lesson.
After your lesson, head to Haleiwa Town, where you can shop, have a local lunch and cool off with rainbow-flavoured shaved ice. In the afternoon begin your trip back towards Honolulu where you have
the late afternoon and evening free to enjoy at leisure.

DAY 9: PEARL HARBOR

Enjoy breakfast at your hotel and check out. Then, accompanied by your expert guide (and taking your luggage with you), go on a half-day tour of Pearl Harbor and the Arizona Memorial, the final
resting place for the 1,102 U.S. sailors and Marines killed during the surprise attack by Japanese forces on December 7, 1941, that secured U.S. involvement in World War II. The memorial is a stark reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women of the U.S. armed forces to protect American freedoms. During your tour, your guide will paint the picture of what happened on that fateful day on the Walk of Remembrance and at the two memorial museums. During this time you will discuss the events leading up to the War, the attack itself, and significant battles during the war.

DAY 10: DEPARTURE

After you check out of your hotel, your car and driver will be waiting for you to take you to the airport in time for your flight home.
