Days/7 Nights


Travel dates and duration of tour are flexible


Day 1
Depart from your departure city today on Air Canada for Honolulu, Hawaii. Upon arrival, the team will be transferred to the hotel by Airport Waikiki Express. The group will be staying for the next 8 evenings at the Ohana Waikiki West Hotel, located in the heart of Waikiki. Each unit is a kitchenette.

First day to get acquainted with the area. Perhaps stroll through the International Market Place or spend the day on Waikiki beach.


Day 2 - Free day today.

Why not visit Diamond Head in the east end of Kapiolani Park. From dawn to dusk you can see minute figures crawling along its precipice. The hike is tremendously worthwhile. Enter the crater through a tunnel on its eastern flank. The climb is easy, the trail well marked to the 760-foot summit. The reward is a sweeping view of the panorama from Koko Head to Barbers Point.


Day 3
First day of the Mary Knoll Tournament. There will be teams competing from Canada and Hawaii.
Day 4 - Free day today

This might be a good day to visit Sea Life Park. The Hawaii Sea Life Park is a world of wonder as dancing seals, playful penguins and dolphins delight you in spectacular shows.  A world of drama, as thousands of exotic fish and marine life keep a watchful eye on the sharks that patrol their mammoth 300,000 gallon home.  Additionally you can also attend Splash U where you will touch, teach and interact with dolphins. Alternatively spend the day at Waimea Valley and Adventure Park. This 1,800 acre historical park on Oahu's scenic North Shore offers the ultimate Hawaiian experience. Witness the recreation of activities hundreds of years old at the ancient living site, Kauhale Kahiko.  Enjoy hula performances, as well as ancient Hawaiian games.  Brave some of the all-new Waimea Adventures wilderness trails on an all terrain vehicle, mountain bike or horseback, or kayak down the Waimea River.
