  • Days 1-3

    Oahu:

    Start your Hawaiian journey in Honolulu. Visit Pearl Harbor on day 2, getting there by 7:30 AM to avoid crowds and heat. The USS Arizona Memorial takes about 75 minutes to explore. Bring water and sunscreen since shade is limited. Spend your afternoon discovering downtown Honolulu's history at Iolani Palace and Chinatown.

    
  • Day 3

    Waikiki Beach.

    Look for the Duke Kahanamoku statue if you want calmer waters. Planning to visit the Polynesian Cultural Center? Book the latest possible departure since afternoon traffic heading north can be slow.

    
  • Days 4-5

    Big Island:

    The Honolulu to Hilo flight takes 45 minutes. Bring a light jacket for Hawaii Volcanoes National Park since temperatures drop 10-15°F at crater viewpoints. Getting from Hilo to Kona takes about 2 hours through changing scenery.

    
  • Day 5

    Kona's coffee country.

    Spend day 5 exploring Kona's coffee country. Visit farms before 11 AM, before afternoon clouds appear. A TourRadar traveler shares: "The coffee farm tours are fascinating, but bring cash - many small farms don't take cards. And don't miss the free samples!"

    
  • Days 6-7

    Kauai:

    Fly from Kona to Kauai in about an hour. The Waimea Canyon drive includes winding roads. If you get motion sickness, grab a front seat and look at the horizon. Wear sturdy shoes at canyon viewpoints since the red dirt gets slippery after rain.

    
  • Day Use your free day wisely.

    Morning activities

    Maui:

    Land at Kahului Airport and head to Iao Valley. Arrive before 10 AM to find good parking. Planning the Road to Hana? Leave by 7 AM to have time for stops. The full trip takes 10-12 hours with sightseeing breaks.
