Journeyscape

Specialising in tailor‑made holidays to North America, Journeyscape — a sister brand of Journey Latin America — is delighted to announce the launch of its newest destination: Hawai'i. In true Journeyscape style, the collection has been carefully curated to offer travellers a more intimate, meaningful way to experience the islands, prioritising boutique, family‑run and independently owned hotels over large international chains.

This thoughtful approach allows travellers to connect more deeply with Hawai'i's landscapes, culture and communities, while enjoying the warm hospitality and character that smaller properties provide.

Alongside its distinctive accommodation offering, Journeyscape now boasts one of the most extensive and immersive activity portfolios available for Hawai'i. From volcanic adventures and marine wildlife encounters to cultural workshops and guided nature experiences, travellers can explore the islands in a way that feels authentic, responsible and enriching.

Journeyscape offers fully bespoke holidays in Hawaii, and to mark the launch, Journeyscape's Travel Experts have created three new distinct holiday itineraries to showcase the destination.

Lei'd Back Hawai'i: Big Island, Maui and Kaua'i - 13 days from £9,290 per person

Discover the natural beauty and laid‑back culture of Hawai'i on this 13‑day journey across the island of Hawai'i, Maui and Kaua'i. Stay on scenic shores, learn local traditions and enjoy farm‑to‑table experiences — including an intimate coffee farm tour showcasing one of the islands' most iconic crops. Stargaze atop little‑visited Mauna Kea and explore Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park with a private guide tailored to your interests. Continue to Maui for snorkelling at Molokini Crater, relaxing beaches and charming historic towns, before ending in lush, rugged Kaua'i, where you'll enjoy exclusive waterfall experiences alongside the Nāpali Coast, Waimea Canyon and Hulē'ia National Wildlife Refuge. With immersive excursions and off‑the‑beaten‑path moments, this itinerary offers an authentic and enriching introduction to Hawai'i's most iconic islands.

Quintessential Hawai'i: O'ahu and Maui - 8 days from £4,660 per person

Experience the essence of Hawai'i on this immersive 8‑day cultural journey through O'ahu and Maui. Begin in Honolulu, staying in the iconic Lē'ahi (Diamond Head), just a short distance from the bustle of Waikīkī yet offering a calmer, more local feel. Explore the famous crater, kayak in beautiful Kailua Bay, attend an authentic luau and discover Hawai'i's royal and cultural heritage at 'Iolani Palace and the Bishop Museum. Fly to Maui to experience its remarkable landscapes, from stargazing at Haleakalā National Park to snorkelling with sea turtles at Molokini Crater and unwinding on pristine beaches. This itinerary offers a fun, insightful and off‑the‑beaten‑path introduction to two of Hawai'i's most captivating islands.

Hawaiian Seascapes Expedition Cruise - 12 days from £6,780 per person

Discover Hawai'i away from the crowds on this seven‑night expedition cruise across Moloka'i, Maui, Lāna'i and the island of Hawai'i. Snorkel, kayak, explore untouched coastlines by skiff, meet locals preserving ancient traditions and hike pristine valleys and secluded volcano trails with expert naturalist guides. Sailing on the intimate 36‑guest Safari Explorer, you'll access hidden coves and remote landscapes larger ships can't reach.

Dominique Kotsias, Product Manager at Journeyscape comments: “What truly sets Journeyscape apart is the depth of experience we offer. Currently, no other UK tour operator combines such an immersive range of activities with stays in mostly independent hotels and B&Bs. Hawai'i deserves to be experienced through its people, its stories and its landscapes. By working with small, characterful properties and curating hands‑on experiences, we're giving travellers a chance to see a side of Hawai'i that most visitors never encounter.”

Notes to editor:

All holidays include domestic flights between the islands, good‑quality hotels, some meals, excursions and car hire. Full board is included during the cruise itinerary for seven nights. International flights are extra.
