      About this trip

      AT SUNSET, SOME TIME BETWEEN the next sips of your tropical drink while watching the young men swing their torches to light the tiki lamps, you think, "this is still the USA, but it's close to paradise!" The warm tropical breezes will waft away memories of an Illinois winter. A nice feature of this 3-island itinerary is that one sees three very different sides of Hawaii. 


      Note: The travel dates have changed from the March 13th departure in our original flier.

      Itinerary

      Day 1, 3/17/23 Friday
      Champaign-Chicago O'Hare-Flight-Honolulu

      Ride the motorcoach to Chicago, where you board a flight to Honolulu, Oahu. Arrive in Honolulu and meet your Tour Director for a warm Aloha Welcome. Transfer to your hotel and check in for your 3-night stay on Oahu, the most populated of the Hawaiian Islands. At first glance, Honolulu, the state’s capital, appears like any other large American city. Still, the palm trees, scarlet hibiscus, and the variegated colors of the citizenry’s clothing make it clear that you are not anywhere but Hawaii. This evening join your fellow travelers for a Welcome Dinner. (D) Overnight: Honolulu

      We had a great time! Travel was super easy with our bus to and from the airport, check-ins at the airport and into each hotel. It was great to have days perfectly planned with a great list of activities. We really enjoyed our travel guide in San Francisco - he was so knowledgeable and did a great job showing us around. Our LA guide was OK but I think it was hard to see much of interest as LA seems so spread out. We also wanted to provide a special 'shout out' to our bus driver (Ruben w/Via) for the week. Ruben was fantastic!! Would definitely go again!

      It was a delightful trip! Mary Beth does a beautiful job, as usual. Every detail went smoothly and was handled first class! 'Sorry to learn that there are no other day trips planned for the future. Janann Vance

      The trip was good except for the flight which is normal and the bus back from Ohara but understand this will be corrected and gift available for future trips. But I also must mention the dinner on the last night there. Dinner was a long way from hotel and the time we it took us plus and the time we returned just did not make any since, since several in our group had to get up to catch their plane home early in the morning. It would have made much more since to have this dinner the night prior and the last dinner could have been held in the hotel or a walking distance from the hotel and much earlier. This should be looked at on any of your future trips

      Overall, it was a great trip! The group guide was excellent and the local guides were also very good. I learned something new every day and have amazing photos to remember this trip for years to come!

      I enjoyed the accommodations, the tour of Provence, small towns, the guide, Gerard, the luxurious bus and wonderfully competent driver, Alessandro. The experience were exuberant, cooking class, truffle hunting and tasting, the boat ride. I enjoyed the people and camaraderie.
