When planning your trip of a lifetime, you have some important questions to ask yourself. There are basically 6 islands that can be visited How many of them are you going to visit when you come? The biggest expense is getting to Hawaii, but it's not nearly as cheap as you would think to get from island to island. At the time of this writing, a typical airfare runs from $76.00 to $89.75 per person.
Another possibility is the SuperFerry, but at this time it only runs between Oahu and Maui. It's a three and a half hour trip from Honolulu to Maui and a 3 hours trip from Maui to Honolulu.Cost is currently $39.00 per person, one way. Some rental companies will allow you to drive your car on the ferry, but will charge you an additional fee. If you leave the car on another island, figure at least a $400 drop fee charge. There is a ferry or charters that runs from Maui to Molokai and Lanai as well.
Price is not the only thing to consider. How much time will it take you to explore each island? Depending on how varied your interests are will help determine the answer to this question. The natural scenery is so breathtaking on all the islands and so varied, that you want to allow plenty of time for expeditions.
Determining how much actual time you have for your Hawaii islands travel is the first step. Let's say you have two weeks. I would recommend two, maybe three islands at the most. Five days on each island is minimum. Most people feel like they are rushed to cram everything they want to do into that small amount of time.
If you are going to stay on two, determine which two would be most valuable for you to see. Maui no ka oi is a popular saying, meaning that Maui is the best. I would include this in your Hawaii island vacation especially if it is your first time coming to Hawaii. It has a little bit of everything. From there you need to determine if you want to go more rural or more commercialized.
No matter which island or islands you choose, You can have the time of your life with your Hawaii travel vacation.
