FAMILY VACATION TO HAWAII
SHARED BY LAILA

After California and Maine, Laila and her family wanted to explore another state during their time as expatriates in the United States. They chose Hawaii because they didn’t want excessively long driving distances during their trip. Thus, the average driving time from one place to another was 2 hours max. Island-hopping was easy and quick thanks to good domestic flights. Also, they considered it would be easier traveling to Hawaii from the US than from Europe. A non-stop flight with United or Hawaiian from NY will take you to Honolulu before you know it! Hawaii’s extraordinary biodiversity, ranging from volcanoes to magnificent waterfalls and colorful  beaches, made this trip unique. The family tried to avoid the tourist-popular part of each island concentrating instead on the more authentic places. They found charming lodging options that allowed them to basically stay away from the crowded all-inclusive resorts. Do enjoy this stunning itinerary created and tested by Laila and her family. The budget for the whole trip was around $ 3420 per person for 17 nights (excluded food and activities) .
