The Hawaiian islands are an amazing chain of volcanoes far from any other land. They rise from the ocean floor, created by the incessant activity of a powerful hot spot in the earth's mantle as the Pacific Ocean plate slowly drifts by, allowing them to experience their own and unique natural development.
The Hawaiian goddess of fire, Pele, is said to have passed from island to island, starting at the oldest Kauai, until she found her home on Hawai'i, the big island with its presently active volcanoes.
Although there is no more lava lake in Kilauea since late November 2018, however Hawaii remains a very interesting destination and during 16 days we discover 4 volcanic islands: Oahu (Honolulu), Kauai, Maui and Big Island:
Tropical Oahu island with its famous beaches and the buzzing capital Honolulu, wild Kauai island in the far north- the oldest and spectacularly eroded of the larger islands in the chain, sunny Maui with the mythical Haleakala volcano, and Hawai'i, the Big island with its great volcanoes Kilauea and Mauna Loa.

The tour is accompanied by a trained geologist - volcanologist from our team and aimed towards people who like to hike and explore the diverse natural and cultural history of Hawai'i.

Remarque:
Days 1 and 2 are mainly to adjust to the jet lag and gather the group. You can shorten the itinerary to 13 days if you like to arrive (or if your flight connection can only arrive) in Honolulu on D2 in the program. In this case, you receive a 5% reduction on the price.
The exact itinerary on the spot, in particularly the program around Kilauea volcano during our stay on Hawai'i Island, could be modified as a function of weather conditions, volcanic activity and other factors out of our hands. We will always try to optimize it accordingly.
