Very educational it can be too - on one such tour I took many years ago the pilot gleefully pointed out all the little outdoor grow-ops in the remote valleys. Small-plane tours are also available on Oahu, Maui and Kauai, while a couple of Oahu companies offer glider rides as an alternative, and another - Pacific Skydiving Center - gives you the chance to appreciate the rapidly approaching scenery by strapping yourself to a stranger and jumping out of a perfectly serviceable aircraft.
will be happy to find a variety of bike tours available on most islands, including one which involves coasting down a volcano before being driven back to the summit for a wine-tasting, while hikers can choose a variety of treks from gentle strolls to full-on assaults on the rainforest. There is even a Segway Tour available on Oahu so you can see the sights, dodge taxis, harass pedestrians and look ridiculous all at the same time. Prefer to see the islands from the air? Helicopter tours are a great way to appreciate the unspoilt hidden landscapes of the islands’ interior hills and valleys.
5. CHOOSE YOUR RELAXATION If you still have energy left after a hard day’s adventuring, there is no better place to unwind than at a Luau. Several hotels offer nightly Luaus, while Maui visitors can combine the traditional party with a sunset cocktail or dinner cruise from the Lahaina Cruise Company. And that really is the charm of Hawaii: you can swim, surf, fish, snorkel, dive, ride, hike, sail, cruise or explore all day, and still find a warm beach to crash on at sunset. Now, where’s that piña colada?
