The remainder of your day is at leisure. Day 2: Honolulu. (Mon.) A breakfast get-together with your Tour Director to review activities scheduled throughout your stay.

This evening there’s an optional sunset cruise with dinner, Hawaiian cocktails, and splendid views of the glittering Waikiki coastline and Diamond Head. (B) Day 3: Honolulu. (Tue.) Begin with a tour of PEARL HARBOR’S famous battleship row. Listen to a narration of the dramatic air attack of December 7, 1941, and visit the USS Arizona and the impressive MEMORIAL dedicated to the 1,102 men still entombed. You will also have an opportunity to visit the MUSEUM, an excellent way to learn about Pearl Harbor Day, the Japanese strategy and military craft, and the individuals involved in the attack. Then it’s on to Punchbowl National Cemetery and Honolulu Lookout. Other sights include Chinatown, the Hawaii State Capitol, royal `Iolani Palace, and the statue of Kamehameha the Great. Tonight, a wonderful evening of dining and entertainment awaits! See the most popular show in Waikiki, the Society of Seven, with an evening of classic impersonations, comedy acts, Broadway show tunes, and today’s popular hits! (B,D) Day 4: Honolulu–Kauai. (Wed.) Morning flight to the “Garden Isle” of Kauai. View pretty `Opaeka`a Falls on the Wailua River before proceeding to Princeville for a delightful lunch overlooking Bali Hai, as seen in the movie South Pacific. Continue south to sunny Poipu Beach and your resort. (B,L) Day 5: Kauai. (Thu.) No activities have been scheduled today to give you time to relax and enjoy your oceanfront resort. Optional tours include helicopter flightseeing and snorkeling. (B,D) Note: If you have scheduled independent activities for this evening, you can opt to have dinner at your leisure on day 4. Day 6: Kauai. (Fri.) Start the day with a drive to Waimea, once the Polynesian capital of Kauai and the site where Captain Cook landed in the islands in 1778. Sightseeing highlights include WAIMEA CANYON, the “Grand Canyon of the Pacific,” and Hanapepe Valley. With the afternoon free, your Tour Director will suggest an optional horseback ride on the trails and along the sandy beaches. Dinner tonight is a splendid LUAU feast. Sit back and watch a captivating Polynesian revue of dancers and musicians. (B,D) Day 7: Kauai–Maui. (Sat.) Today begins with a short and scenic flight to Kahului on the “Valley Island” of Maui. Drive to the lush `IAO VALLEY to see the `Iao Needle, a spectacular volcanic spire. Then to Lahaina , once a whaling center and the capital of the Hawaiian monarchy. Continue to Maui’s resort area of Ka`anapali, your home for the next three nights. Balance of the day at leisure. (B) Day 8: Maui. (Sun.) This morning is dedicated to HALEAKALA NATIONAL PARK, site of the huge volcanic Haleakala Crater, known to islanders as the “House of the Sun.” The park is in a setting of stunning natural beauty, ranging from cinder cones to dense rainforest. In 1980 this fragile native ecosystem was designated an International Biosphere Reserve. Plenty of time in the afternoon to relax and enjoy your resort’s facilities. (B,D) Note: Elevation at Haleakala National Park is 10,000 feet. Day 9: Maui. (Mon.) A full free day to swim and sunbathe at the beach or hotel pool. Consider our optional helicopter flightseeing excursion: fly over Molokai for spectacular views of Kahiwa Falls and Kalaupapa National Historic Park. Another choice is the “Road to Hana,” one of the world’s most spectacular drives with its 54 bridges and many waterfalls. From mid-December to mid-April your Tour Director will suggest a special whale-watching cruise to seek out the mighty humpback. This evening, your Tour Director hosts a special GLOBUS FAREWELL CELEBRATION DINNER. Wonderful conversation and cuisine make the perfect finale for your vacation. (B,D) Day 10: Continue your stay on Maui, with plenty of activities. “Maui no ka oi” (“Maui is the best”) is what the locals say, and it’s easy to see why this Hawaiian island is so popular. Besides beautiful landscapes and perfect weather, Maui also boasts some premier attractions. If you ever get tired of lying on one of its 80 named beaches, Lahaina—the one-time whaling port and capital of the monarchy— has many historic sites to visit. (B) Day 11: Maui. (Wed.) Another day at leisure for you to enjoy the “Best Island in the World.” Optional sightseeing tours to many of Maui’s favorite attractions are available, including a snorkeling trip to Molokini Island and much more.

Share the pleasure of a Globus vacation with your children and grandchildren and take advantage of a 10-percent discount on the land-only price. For eligibility, children must be under 18 years of age on the departure date and must be accompanied by an adult. On escorted vacations we don’t accept children under eight years old because we have found that they are too young to enjoy these vacations.
Pay less for your second vacation We charge you vacation price for your first vacation in 2008, but for every additional Globus vacation you take in the same year, you pay US$35 under list. Our vacations are designed and scheduled so you can combine them almost any way you want. It’s fun to play the add-a-vacation game yourself or talk to your travel agent.
Triple room reduction On most Globus vacations you receive a reduction when three people travel together and share the same accommodations. Triple room reductions, when available, are listed on the itinerary pages. A word of caution: Triple rooms usually are no larger than twin rooms and the third bed, if there is one, is often a rollaway put in a twin-bedded room.
Avoid the single room supplement We do not take reservations on a “share” basis because we have found that strangers rarely enjoy sharing a room for the duration of their vacation. Avoid the single room supplement by traveling with a friend. It’s less expensive and much more fun!
