San Francisco & Hawaii
Escape from Alcatraz for some sightseeing, then escape to paradise for some sun seeking.
The City by the Bay is the classic stopover on the way to Hawaii. This trip combines three exceptionally exciting destinations: San Francisco, with its Golden Gate and maritime traditions; Waikiki, with its nightlife and surf stories; and Maui, with its beach bliss and relaxation. On your way back to the UK, you’ll have a quick airport layover to break up your long-haul flight home.

San Francisco
Welcome to the USA
The Golden Gate City is also the gateway to an incredible holiday. When heading to Hawaii, you need to stop somewhere and maximising your layover in San Francisco is a great way to get your trip started in style. Bike over the Golden Gate Bridge, take a boat trip and tour Alcatraz at night, spot the Painted Ladies, and stroll along Fisherman’s Wharf – there are so many iconic locations in San Francisco. To make sure you see the highlights, take a city tour, and you can hop on and hop off the tour bus as you please.
Oahu
Fly over the Pacific Ocean
You’ll fly another six or seven hours to reach the sandy shores of Hawaii across the Pacific Ocean. Your first destination is Oahu, the livelier of the Hawaiian island, where you can enjoy the energy of Waikiki Beach, relax poolside, or take a hike to Diamond Head for sensational views. Waikiki is one of the most popular destinations in Hawaii. This buzzy neighbourhood is known for its high-rise luxury hotels overlooking white-sand beaches, crystal-clear waters, and perfect waves. There are plenty of restaurants, shops, and entertainment options to keep you busy.
Maui
Beach bliss
It’s only a quick flight from Oahu to Maui to experience a calmer side of Hawaii. Explore the island's rich history, search for diverse wildlife, and try outdoor activities like hiking and snorkelling. Maui boasts natural beauty with pristine beaches, rain forests, and volcanic mountains. Of course, it goes without saying that you’ll also find exceptionally luxurious resorts and a thriving culinary scene here. We highly recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your time in Maui.
