GINNY L Posted November 16, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 16, 2022 In Hilo we rented a car at the airport. From there we went to many different places. Here is my itinerary for the day. We were done with two hours to spare. However, our group of four walks fast. Ship docks at 0800 leaves at -6pm These are just estimated times of how long we will be there. These times are based on research that I did. Get off the ship ASAP and get a cab to the airport. Get the rental car and hopefully be out of there around 0830. Drive to Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park which is about a 40 min drive. Spend about 90 mins there Drive to Nahuku Thurston Lava Tubes--5 min drive Spend about 30 mins there (We spent about 15 mins there) Drive to Rainbow Falls--42 min drive Spend about 15 mins there (We spend about 10 mins there) Drive Richardson Black Sand beach. 17 min drive Spend about 45 mins there (we spent about 25 mins here) Akaka Falls state park---34 min drive Spend about an hour on the hike (We spent about 30 mins here) Umaum Falls--15 min drive spend about 90 mins there (We spent about an hour) Drive back to airport 30 min drive Be at airport for about 15 mins Airport to ship 8 min taxi ride ===Very easy to drive there Kauai We rented a car. If you rent from Enterprise not at the airport but close by you will save a lot of money. We went to the luau that is located close to the ship. We also did the train ride there. We parked our car close to the ship and was ready to go by 0630 the next morning. We went to the water falls first, where we were the only ones. We then checked out about six different beaches besides going to the lighthouse. This trip was to check out areas, so that way if we want to come back one day, we know where we want to go. Maui, We did sail Maui. This was really good for the price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiseMacKenzie Posted November 20, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Ginny, Were taxis readily available to catch to take you to the airport? Our plans are very similar to yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
