New York, N.Y.– July 12, 2021: Insight Vacations, the leader in premium guided journeys, has launched new Hawaii journeys in 2022 for travelers longing to explore the island with peace of mind, without the worry of exceedingly expensive prices.
As the demand for travel to Hawaii increases, so has the cost – with the price of renting a car in the state totaling up to $3,000 alone. The New York Times reports that Hawaii’s rental car shortage has increased rates up to 75 percent or higher compared to 2019 prices, according to Autoslash. The prices for ride-share services, including Uber and Lyft, are also extremely high.
Insight Vacations’ trips to Hawaii include all transportation, premium hotels in the best locations, authentic dining, and immersive and unique experiences for as low as $3,775 – an almost incomparable value.
“We are ready and delighted to welcome travelers to Hawaii. Our new journeys offer incredible dining, hotel services and experiences that have been carefully selected and the prices locked in,” said Guy Young, president of Insight Vacations. “Our dedicated team, including a Travel Director and Well-Being Director, will take care of all the details so that our guests can simply relax and enjoy all that the islands have to offer.”
All Insight journeys to Hawaii include an industry-first Well-being Director on trips with 20 or more guests, who will provide assistance on protocols and hygiene standards developed with the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) and the World Health Organization (WHO). Also featured are special MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experiences curated through our parent company, The Travel Corporation and our not-for-profit partner, TreadRight, which are designed to uplift local communities and ensure Insight’s travels are used as a force for good while supporting the United Nations’ Global Goals.
Insight Vacations’ 7-Day Hawaii With Oahu & Maui and 10-day Hawaii With Oahu, Maui & The Big Island are available to book now, with the first departure set for Jan. 15, 2022.
On these journeys travelers will enjoy outstanding amenities and experiences such as:
- Exploring Maui with Insight Choice: Guests can choose from two unique Insight Experiences. Visit the Haleakala National Park offering an astonishing volcanic landscape, to hear the Hawaiian legends about the dormant volcano and see the unique Haleakala Silversword plant. Alternatively, set sail to the crescent shaped Molokini island for a memorable snorkeling trip, marveling at the colorful tropical fish and enjoy a light lunch on board.
- Authentic Dining in Maui: Indulge in a Farm-to-Table lunch at the Hali’imaile General Store, a plantation shop in the early 20th century that’s now a restaurant known for its outstanding island cuisine.
- Stay at Luxurious, Beachfront Resorts: Guests will lodge in luxury, spending 3 nights at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort, overlooking the widest stretch of beach in Waikiki, and 3 nights at The Westin Maui Resort & Spa, a 12-acre tropical paradise overlooking Ka’anapali Beach.
- MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experience at Hawaiian Legacy Forest: Guests will join an eco-tour in the Hawaiian Legacy Forest and plant a native Milo tree. A Local Expert explains how they are contributing to the healing of the local ecosystem. Guests will then enjoy an al fresco, sustainably sourced Farm-to-Table lunch while enjoying epic views of the North Shore.
- Unique Insight Experience in Oahu: While journeying around Oahu, guests will take in epic views from Pali Lookout. They will travel beneath the towering Ko’olau Cliffs and along the rugged Windward Coast, later reaching Sunset Beach and visiting Haleiwa, the social and artistic hub of the North Shore.
