Itinerary

Day 1: Arrive in Kailua-Kona

Aloha! Get ready for an action-packed week on one of the world’s most isolated islands, praised and sought-after by travelers around the globe.

Today’s highlights
  • Arrive at the airport in Kailua-Kona where you’ll meet an EF representative.
  • Transfer to your hotel to check in and check out your room.
  • Receive the latest schedule from your Tour Director.
  • Meet your fellow travelers as they arrive.

Day 2: Explore Kailua-Kona & Welcome Lūʻau

If Kailua-Kona (or Kona, as the locals call it) was good enough for King Kamehameha I, it’s good enough for you. Once a political capital, and later a royal family vacation spot, it’s easy to see what drew Hawaiian royalty here. It’s got it all: turquoise water, black sand beaches, and more palm trees than you can shake a Spam musubi at.

In the evening, it’s time for your Welcome Lūʻau. Enjoy local Hawaiian cuisine in an authentic setting with fellow travelers.

Today’s highlights
  • Take in the sights, smells, and stories of Kailua-Kona on a walking tour.
  • Stop on Ali’i Drive for souvenir shopping and lunch—fresh ʻahi (yellowfin tuna), anyone?
  • Cruise along the crystal clear waters of the Kohala Coast to snorkel and try and spot dolphins!
  • Keep the festivities going at a Welcome Lua’u.
