I have a couple of travelers interested in this itinerary, but the title says 'First Class Cruise,' while the itinerary description does not mention a cruise. Could you clarify whether this involves a cruise around the islands with onboard accommodation or if it refers to air transfers with hotel stays?

This tour does have internal flights around the island of Honolulu-Kona, Hilo-Kahului, and Kahului-Lihue, with a hotel stay. The transportation includes a Luxury air-conditioned coach with Wi-Fi in most countries or alternative transportation, but no cruise. The hotel stay has three different room categories: Moderate (City View), First Class (Partial Ocean View), and Premium (Ocean View).

How many people are usually on the tour?

The group size can vary, but it's typical to have a small group to enhance the experience.

Can I request an aisle seat for my flight?

Requests for specific seating can't be guaranteed until you arrive at the airport, but you can switch seats if needed.

What if I require assistance during the tour due to mobility issues?

While the tour does involve walking, you are welcome to book if you feel fit and healthy enough to join.

What time would we arrive there? And what time is the first evening to meet with tour guide?

Please arrive in Honolulu at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL) prior to the Welcome Reception/Dinner which will be at approximately 18:00/6pm on Day 1.

Can I share a room with another solo traveler?

Unfortunately, guaranteed room share is not available for this tour.

What is the cost of the tour?

The Hawaii Four Island Adventure Moderate tour is priced at £5,336.00 per person in a twin room.

What is the price for extra luggage?

For inter-island flights, a first checked bag fee is typically around $25, but details may vary by airline.

How do I arrange airport transfers?

You can arrange chargeable transfers from the airport to the hotel, with details provided at a later time.

How much walking is involved in this tour?

The tour requires some walking; you should be comfortable getting on and off the coach independently.

Actual tour and tour director were very good. Three of the four hotels were very musty. If you have allergies or asthma these hotels are not for you. The hotel in kuaia had roaches and bugs in the bathroom. In addition, we paid extra for an oceanfront review and we faced a wall. The free day on the big island and Kuaia had a lack of transportation so we couldn’t go anyplace without running the risk of not being able to get back to the hotel. We wrote to Trafalgar about this and all they would do is give us am10% coupon for another tour. I at least expected a refund for the difference between ocean front and no view for the last hotel.Show more

My wife and I travel all the time. We used Trafalgar to go to Hawaii because of visiting 4 islands. First time we used them because of reputation of many additional charges, excluding additional excursions. For example when we went to Ireland we used CIE tours over Trafalgar and glad we did because all costs were up front. First we did see quite a bit and tour guide was good. Trafalgar, however, combined several Hawaii length tours and we had for majority of trip 46 people with one tour guide which we weren't pleased with. Viking, for example limits a tour guide for 30 people. We went to the Polynesian village in Oahu and Trafalgar charged us for premium package and gave us the cheapest package. We found this out by brochures we picked up. One of our tour members wrote Trafalgar and they reimbursed us but we had to address a letter. We also got the nosebleed seats for the show. Also on our shuttle in they doubled our charge from 44 to 86 on a shared van and would not reimburse for the difference. Interesting we only had to pay a taxi from Polynesian village 22 per person for an hours drive. Overall use Viking or CIE which stand above Trafalgar when it comes to integrity and honesty. My wife and I continue to travel but will probably not use Trafalgar again.Show more

Very disappointed. Check how many free days you have. With the pandemic there was very little we could do. We were disappointed in the hotels, the food and the time spend in the airport prior to flights. A flight that took far less than an hour, we were at the airport 3 hours before the flight. This was the most highly rated coach tour we have had, with the worst experience. Beware, read carefully and do not expect that you will be able to see all you are promised. I realize that COVID is a problem, but if the tour cannot deliver what they advertise, should they not give you the option of canceling.Show more

Reply from: Trafalgar
It saddens us to read that your time away with Trafalgar does not seem to have lived up to your expectations, and that this seems to have been due to a few different factors. In particular, we regret that that some of the Optional Experiences detailed in our itinerary were not available for you to experience. We can absolutely understand that this was a part of the trip that you were looking forward to, as our Optional Experiences do add something extra to our destinations. Please allow us to explain that our Optional Experiences are subject to cancellation and this can be due to a number of reasons including adverse weather, third party compliance, the level of interest from the group and of course, restrictions related to Covid-19. Having said this, we regret if you were not aware of this prior to the start of the trip. While we note with reluctance that you may not be travelling with us again, we nevertheless wish you all the best in your future vacation endeavours.
