When selecting your accommodation please note that the standard bedding configuration in Hawai‘i is two double beds, with a maximum of two children free using existing bedding. This can vary.

Your travel consultant will help you choose the hotel to best suit you and your family’s needs. Price Indicator: The price is provided as a guide only. The actual price may differ to that indicated in this brochure due to currency fluctuations, special events, trade shows or peak periods. Your travel consultant will quote you the actual price at the time of booking. Per person pricing is in New Zealand dollars. Look out for our “gems” of information scattered throughout our Hawai‘i brochure.

Hawai‘i Hawai‘i and her islands is a destination that will impress you from the moment you step off the plane. Clear blue skies meet the ocean at the horizon and everything looks pristine when dappled in sunlight. With the Pacific Ocean on your doorstep, there are numerous activities to try that gratefully have you able to cool off in the water. Each island is vastly different to the other, so you can find one to suit your needs and can be adventurous or inactive as you like. The word Aloha is both a greeting and a way to show affection and this is heard being used daily by the Hawaiian people who are displaying warmth and kindness. Leave a corner of your suitcase empty as with the array of shops in Waikiki, you’ll easily be able to fill it. The dining options are overwhelming and the cocktails beckon, particularly at various happy hours. Soak up the sun, embrace the culture and appreciate the beautiful surroundings.

6 Tips for your Holiday

Hawai‘i is a playground for active travellers and with warm, clear waters, it’s perfect for ocean lovers. Snorkelling, diving, game-fishing and kayaking are popular, and try your hand at surfing, with many lessons available right on Waikiki Beach, alongside the chance to ride an Outrigger Canoe. Pack the walking shoes and enjoy delightful walks for all fitness levels up hills and along coastal paths, and on the outer islands, even some hikes on volcanoes.

1 / A NOD TO THE PAST Hawai‘i has many historical moments contributing to its present-day appeal. We can thank Captain James Cook for their discovery, who ironically then had an untimely death at Hawai‘i Island. Surfing is said to have originated in O‘ahu and now is an extremely popular pastime. We can’t forget the Polynesian influence of dancing and using it to tell a story, bringing us the hula and of course gatherings mean food, bring us the luau, a magnificent feast. There was once a royal family, which still has strong significance in the Hawai‘i we know today with ‘Iolani Palace being the former residence and now a popular attraction. The events of December 1941 have will never be forgotten with Pearl Harbour also attracting many visitors annually.

3 / GET ACTIVE

2 / MORE THAN WAIKIKI Waikiki is an exciting beach neighbourhood of Honolulu, but don’t forget about the rest of this American state. Circle O‘ahu and explore pineapple plantations and movie sets. The neighbouring islands are a “preparing for landing as soon you as you take off” flight away and are all so different to one another. Each offers some very unique sights and experiences, is noticeably much quieter than Waikiki and you’ll be pleased you ventured a little bit further than the famous beach.

5 / MARINE EXPERIENCES Maui and the Kohala Coast of Hawai‘i Island are great places for whale watching (between November and April) as they migrate to the sheltered Hawaiian waters. Put a visit to Turtle Town on your Maui itinerary too – the water is replete with bright coral, tropical fish and multiple sea turtles. A trip to Molokini Island will have you snorkelling with colourful fish and viewing coral. Also visit Hawai‘i Island for a manta ray experience. The mantas frequent the Kona Coast, notably the bay fronting Sheraton Kona Resort & Spa, and come nightfall boat tours, certified divers and snorkellers are all permitted to venture amongst them.

4 / DISCOVER THE BEST BEACHES You’d be hard pushed to find a bad patch of sand in Hawai‘i. There are long white sand beaches, secluded rocky coves, beaches fronted by parks and picnic areas, beaches for surfing, beaches for sandcastles – you get the picture… Make sure O‘ahu’s Haunama Bay and the platinum white Makapu’u Beach are on your list, the latter an easy jaunt from Waikiki and with a prominent lighthouse for exploring. Kapalua Bay Beach, Maui is a stunner and Kauna‘oa Bay on Hawai‘i Island boasts bluer than blue waters.

© Hawai‘i Tourism Authority; AJ Feducia

6 / EAT LIKE A LOCAL Discover authentic Hawaiian flavours loved by the residents. O‘ahu’s famed North Shore food trucks are always swarmed by locals and that’s because they’ve been a Hawaiian institution for decades. Look for Giovanni’s, one of the original (and best) food trucks in Hawai‘i. If you like raw fish, you’ll love Poké. Relatively similar to ceviche, it’s thick cubes of raw tuna marinated with soy and sesame… ask for added avocado to make it extra delicious. Loco Moco is a classic icon too and is tastier than it sounds. Rice topped with a meat pattie and a fried egg, and then doused with gravy, they are served in all types of establishments. When in Waikiki, visit Leonard’s Bakery which has been selling malasadas since 1952. A malasada is a hole-less donut stuffed with custard (or chocolate) and dusted in sugar and cinnamon. Best to visit daily.

Experience

Hawai‘i

As your plane begins its descent, you lean forward in your seat, hoping to catch a

glimpse of the emerald and iconic volcanic peak known as Diamond Head, rearing out of the ocean and fringed with white sand. The moment you step off the plane you know you’ve arrived in the right place – the air is warm and has that languid feel that you only find in the tropics. Then, as if to reassure you further, you’re greeted, not by the usual nod from a customs official, but with a brilliant smile and a welcoming ‘aloha’. It’s a greeting you’ll hear a hundred times a day in Hawai‘i, and one which you’ll find yourself slipping into your own language as you melt into the rhythm of the islands. Hello, goodbye, peace, love and happiness – all sentiments that suit the Hawaiian lifestyle perfectly. With its Polynesian heritage, it’s easy to imagine that New Zealand would be like this if it had the good fortune to be dragged a few hundred miles closer to the equator. It’s the sort of destination that makes you want to try new things. Fancy learning to surf? You’ll find a beginner-sized wave somewhere on any given day, and there’s no shortage of patient instructors to get you up and riding. Or learn a new artform or custom from the Islands of Aloha. The friendly Hawaiian locals will be only too happy to share their stories and the strong spiritual connection between Hawai‘i and New Zealand. One thing is certain – on your last night, as you watch the sun sink into the Pacific, you’ll wish you could dally a little longer.

O‘ahu An old-fashioned trolley bus rumbles along streets fringed with palm trees. Beyond lies a white sandy beach where tourists and locals relax. The surf is small but perfectly formed – just right for a morning surfing lesson. When you’re done, saunter to breakfast of fresh pineapple, strong Kona coffee and a pastry, in anticipation of some serious shopping. Such are the highlights of Waikiki, but don’t be trapped by its charms – O‘ahu has much more to offer beyond Honolulu. Hire a car and circle the island. On the east coast you’ll find soaring cliffs, talcum-powder beaches and a quieter way of life, the perfect foil to the fun and frivolity of Waikiki. The world-famous surf beaches of the North Shore are another highlight, and even if you’re not a surfer, Sunset Beach may be the world’s best spot to watch the sun go down.

Our favourite things to see and do Waikiki Beach Walk® – Home to plenty of restaurants including the Yard House where you can taste over 110 different types of beer. Also make sure you check out the art galleries and shops.

Waikiki Trolley – A fun way to see the sites. The red line is for the history buffs. Explore 13 stops in historic Honolulu, take the green line for a scenic tour along the east coast of O‘ahu past Diamond Head and the pink line is for all the shopaholics.

Ala Moana Shopping Centre – The world’s largest openair shopping centre with over 350 shops and restaurants. Here you’ll find Macy’s, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Old Navy, Zara and the list goes on.

Pearl Harbour – This is a must, a very moving tribute to those who lost their lives here on December 7th, 1941.

North Shore – Head to the North Shore and check out all the surfing action at famous beaches such as Waimea Bay and Sunset Beach. Stop at the Aloha General Store, the birth place of Shave Ice and feast on fresh shrimp from one of the many shrimp trucks on the side of the road.

Dining – There are so many amazing places to eat and drink in Waikiki. A few of our favourites are Roy’s, Bill’s Hawai‘i, The Pig & Lady and the always lively Duke’s. Hanauma Bay

International Marketplace – Head to the re-designed International Marketplace with over 80 stores and restaurants in the heart of Waikiki including seven signature restaurants.

Diamond Head – It’ll take about an hour to reach the summit

Kawela Sunset Beach Waimea Bay Kaena Point

and around half that time for the way back down. The last stretch is stairs and can be quite challenging – but the views from the top are sensational. Go first thing in the morning to avoid the heat of the day.

Maui On the west coast of Maui, there’s a pretty little town named Lahaina where you can while away the hours drinking cocktails and gazing out across the sea to the neighbouring islands of Lana‘i and Moloka‘i. Art galleries and restaurants now line the quaint main street where once whaling ship crews roamed. At the other end of the island is Hana, a small town whose main attraction is the journey itself with 104 kilometres of coastal road that incorporates 600 bends and 54 one lane bridges. Between the two is massive Haleakala, a volcano that forms more than 75% of the island, with spectacular sunrises and views. Dotted all around the island are the most beautiful beaches and bays, there are resort laden beaches, long white sand beaches, secluded rocky coves, beaches fronted by parks and picnic areas – you’re spoilt for choice.

Our favourite things to see and do Makawao – A thriving arts community in up-country Maui well worth visiting. Eclectic shops, boutiques and art galleries await, as well as the opportunity to watch artists at work. A trip to Komoda Store and Bakery for a cream puff is worth the visit alone.

Iao Valley State Park – A peaceful, lush area centring around Iao Needle, a towering black rock pinnacle soaring over 365 metres high. It’s best to go in the early morning and there are lots of great hikes from which to admire the area’s rich foliage, natural pools and scenic mountain views.

Lahaina Historic Trail – Pick up a walking guide from the Lahaina Visitor Centre and explore Lahaina’s rich whaling and plantation history, as well as the historic court house, jail and banyan tree on a self-guided tour throughout Lahaina Town.

Golf – There are many golf courses which will satisfy even the most demanding golfer. Courses are flanked by crashing waves and soaring hillsides with panoramic vistas and tropical landscapes.

Road to Hana – With over 600 hairpin turns and 54 narrow bridges, the famous road to Hana is much less a thoroughfare as it is a life lesson. Slow down and enjoy the ride, there’s a surprise around every corner.

Kaua‘i They call Kaua‘i the ‘Garden Isle’, but it’s like no garden you’ve ever seen before. Its mountaintops trap the rainclouds that roll in off the Pacific, so its peaks and valleys are draped with lush vegetation. Geologically it’s the oldest of the four main islands of Hawai‘i, so it’s had plenty of time to develop some spectacular scenery. Mark Twain described Waimea Canyon as the ‘Grand Canyon of the Pacific’, while another highlight is the Napali Coast, where sheer cliffs rise thousands of feet straight out of the ocean. This coast is only accessible by hiking, boat or helicopter, but it’s well worth the effort. Of course, you don’t have to travel so extravagantly to appreciate Kaua‘i’s wonders – hire a bicycle from Kapa’a and cruise the cycle path that follows the coast for several kilometres. You’ll find your own patch of paradise.

Our favourite things to see and do Kilauea Lighthouse – Built in 1913 as a beacon for travelling ships, its light was turned off in the 1970s. The view of the rugged northern coastline and the deep-blue Pacific makes this the perfect spot for photos.

Spouting Horn Blowhole – Located on Kaua‘i’s South Shore, it is quite spectacular and one of the most photographed spots. The Poipu surf channels into a natural lava tube here and releases a huge spout of water during large swells.

Fern Grotto – On Kaua‘i’s east side, accessible only by a short boat trip up the Wailua River, the grotto is natural lava-rock, lush with hanging ferns and tropical foliage, cooled by the mists of a waterfall. There was a time when the grotto was off-limits to all but Hawaiian royalty, but for more than 50 years, riverboats have provided tours of the site.

Dining – With everything from fine dining to food trucks, you’ll find something on Kaua‘i to suit your palate. Tahiti Nui in Hanalei and Keoki’s Paradise in Poipu are two not to be missed. Both offer fresh seafood and live entertainment just about every night.

Hawai‘i Island Volcanoes National Park on the island of Hawai‘i (known as the Big Island), is one of the few places where you can actually see new land being created as molten lava plunges into the sea. The sudden meeting of hot rock and cool water creates a vast steam cloud that can be seen from miles away, but to see it after dark is even more impressive, glowing red against the black lava field and night sky. Volcanoes aren’t the only reason to visit the island of Hawai‘i however. On the west coast is Kona, a cute little waterfront town that today is famous for its coffee and World Ironman championship. Great men have walked this land – this was the last royal residence of King Kamehameha the Great, while nearby Kealakekua Bay is where Captain Cook first set foot on the island and where he was later killed.

Our favourite things to see and do Volcanoes National Park – Dramatic, diverse, vast and still growing! To best appreciate the volcanoes, plan to spend at least a day exploring the park.

Punalu‘u Beach – Visit the black sand formed from hardened lava that has been crumbled into tiny particles. This is a popular spot for beachgoers and is also a habitat for honu (turtles).

‘Akaka Falls State Park – After a short hike you’ll first see the 30 metre Kahuna Falls, then continuing on the loop track witness the towering ‘Akaka Falls plunging 135 metres from the cliffs above.

Deep Sea Fishing – A great place to hook big mahimahi, ono, ahi and Pacific blue marlin is off the Kona Coast.

Touring by Rental Car Driving in Hawai‘i Exploring Hawai‘i by car is easy. Driving on the right hand side of the road may be different, however the roads are excellent, well signposted and spacious. Just remember the centre line should be by the driver!

Choosing your Rental Car Take into consideration the size of the vehicle you require. If the vehicle is to be used for day touring from a central base, then a smaller vehicle may be adequate and easier for parking. If doing longer travel, remember you will have luggage to transport around as well as the shopping, so a midsize to larger vehicle should be considered. We suggest you book before leaving home, as this will save you money and ensure that you get the vehicle of your choice.

While each vehicle is serviced and cared for individually there may be an instance that you need some assistance. You can rest assured that in Hawai‘i, Hertz provides Emergency Roadside Assistance 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
