Travelers receive a $700 travel credit per couple on Hawaii cruises
Seattle, WA, July 10, 2013 – From November 2013 to April 2014, Un-Cruise Adventures’
36-guest yacht Safari Explorer explores the Hawaiian islands on a new
itinerary sailing one-way between Moloka’i and Hawaii, the Big Island or
reverse.
Week-long Luxury Adventure cruises in Hawaii include activities and tours while exploring four islands—Moloka’i, Lana’i, Maui and Hawaii, the Big Island.
New
this season, Moloka’i—a quieter, less-visited island—takes center stage
as the beginning or ending point for the line’s cruises. Exclusive
cultural activities are included for guests on Moloka’i with the vessel
spending an evening at dock to allow for a full day of activities and
cultural immersion.
“Moloka’i
is like stepping back in time to the Hawaii of yesteryear,” said Dan
Blanchard, CEO and principal for Un-Cruise Adventures. “It’s incredibly
scenic and values its culture and heritage which we’re proud to be able
to share with our guests.”
Anakala
Pilipo invites guests to Moloka’i’s historic and scenic Halawa Valley
for a hike to a secluded waterfall or a relaxing day on his land
“talking story,” learning the traditions of his family’s ancient taro
patch and a visit to a nearby beach. In the evening, an authentic Pa’ina
(feast) at the Moloka’i Museum and Cultural Center features local
cuisine including fresh fish, poi, seaweed, Moloka’i sweet potatoes and
other staples of the Hawaiian diet. Local musicians join in the
celebration along with a kumu hula dancer.
Travelers
booked by August 2, 2013 for travel November 2013 through April 2014
receive a US$700 per couple travel credit. Rates for the inclusive
weeklong Hawaii cruise start at US$3,595 per person, double occupancy.
Inclusion of premium spirits, fine wines and microbrews, superb
hand-crafted meals featuring local Hawaiian flavors, massage, yoga,
guided tours geared toward small groups, from-yacht activities and
equipment, whale and dolphin encounters, transfers, lei greeting, and
port charges and taxes are all wrapped into the cruise fare.
Highlights of the Hawaiian Seascapes cruise
include a night snorkel with Giant Pacific Manta rays and snorkeling at
Kealakekua Bay where Captain Cook was slain in 1779. A tour to the
Lana’i Culture and Heritage Center introduces guests to the history of
the island. In the Humpback National Marine Sanctuary, expedition
cruising allows time for searching out marine life—humpback whales,
dolphins, turtles and other marine life. In Kailua-Kona on the Big
Island, an afternoon is free to explore the historic town.
The
yacht carries a full complement of water sports equipment for guest use
and a swim step provides a convenient and safe launch pad for kayaks
and paddle boards, or jumping in for a swim. Guests can be as active as
they like and activities include hiking, kayaking, paddle boarding,
snorkeling, sailing and skiff excursions. Expert naturalists provide
interpretation on guided excursions ashore and at sea.
An
experienced and attentive crew, many from the islands, provides a
guest-crew ratio of 2 to 1. Charters and group bookings are available.
