Hi ladies! My fiance and I finally decided on Hawaii for our honeymoon after our Oct 18 wedding. (I offered Oktoberfest in Bavaria as an option, but it was surprisingly turned down.) My job situation is a little iffy right now, so we're looking at only 10 days versus two full weeks as we had originally wanted. Do any of you have any recommendations of places to stay, things to do, how many islands we should do, etc.? Neither of us have been there before.
Based on our admittedly limited research, this is what we want to see:
- Maui (hoping to do a nice resort here and go to the beach quite a bit)
- Volcanoes
- Observatory on the Big Island
- Pearl Harbor
- Snorkeling
- Luau
I know this would involve quite a bit of island hopping. Is this doable in 10 days for under $6k flying from the east coast? We have our first meeting with a travel agent on Saturday morning, but I'd like to have my expectations in check beforehand. Your thoughts are appreciated!
