Days 1-4: Hawaii (Big Island)
Your Hawaii adventure begins on the Big Island, the largest and most diverse island in the Hawaiian archipelago. Known for its dramatic volcanic landscapes, black sand beaches and lush rainforests, this island offers some of the most spectacular scenery in the Pacific.
During your stay, explore Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park, home to the legendary Kīlauea volcano and vast lava fields shaped by centuries of eruptions. One of the most unforgettable experiences is a helicopter flight over the Big Island – an exclusive experience allowing you to witness waterfalls, volcanic craters and rugged coastline from above.
Along the Kona Coast, snorkelling opportunities abound, including the chance to join a twilight manta ray snorkelling experience, one of Hawaii’s most remarkable marine encounters. With time to relax at your resort or explore scenic coastal drives, the Big Island combines adventure with laid-back island living.
Day 5: Big Island to Kauai
Today you fly from the Big Island to Kauai, often called the “Garden Isle” for its lush valleys, towering cliffs and tropical landscapes. On arrival, collect your rental car and settle into your hotel on the island’s sunny south shore, close to the charming resort area of Poipu.
The afternoon is free to relax after your journey. Take a stroll along golden beaches, explore local restaurants, or simply unwind with sunset views over the Pacific Ocean. Kauai offers a slower pace than many Hawaiian islands, making it the perfect place to reconnect with nature and enjoy the island’s spectacular scenery.
Days 6-8: Kauai
Spend the next few days exploring Kauai, one of Hawaii’s most naturally beautiful islands. A highlight is visiting Waimea Canyon State Park, often described as the “Grand Canyon of the Pacific”. Its vast red cliffs, deep valleys and sweeping viewpoints make it one of the most breathtaking landscapes in Hawaii.
Another unforgettable experience is sailing along the legendary Na Pali Coast, where dramatic emerald cliffs plunge into the ocean. On a boat excursion you’ll discover hidden sea caves, remote beaches and crystal-clear waters ideal for swimming and snorkelling.
Sporting rainforest-covered mountains, scenic drives and secluded beaches, Kauai offers the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation during your Hawaiian island-hopping journey.
Day 9: Depart Kauai
After breakfast, enjoy a final morning soaking up the island atmosphere before transferring to the airport for your onward flight.
Whether you spent your last hours relaxing on Poipu Beach, exploring the coastal scenery or picking up souvenirs in Lihue, your time in Hawaii concludes with unforgettable memories of volcanic landscapes, tropical rainforests and spectacular Pacific coastlines.
Our Experts
The thing about the USA is that it's just so diverse. It doesn't matter what you're looking for, you can find it in the USA. I personally love San Francisco because it's hotels are arty and luxurious at the same time.
There's nowhere quite like New York for an ultra-lux city break. I always recommend visiting in December for the dream Christmas experience, complete with high-end shopping, Broadway shows and walks in Central Park.
Stellar service. Stellar products. Stellar people and it gets so much better when you pick up the phone and call.

Luxury New Mexico: Santa Fe, Los Alamos & Breaking Bad Locations
Tailor-made HolidayNew Mexico doesn't look like anywhere else in America, and it doesn't feel like it either. The light is different, the landscape is different, and the culture, shaped by centuries of Native American, Spanish colonial, and Anglo-American layering, sits apart from anything on the coasts. This itinerary runs three threads simultaneously.
