Join this enchanting adventure aboard a comfortable, air-conditioned van for a drive up to the breathtaking Ko'olau Mountains, which tower 1,050 feet above Honolulu. Take in panoramic views of Oahu's stunning south shore, iconic Waikiki, the lush Manoa Valley, the bustling city of Honolulu, and, in the distance, historic Pearl Harbor and the majestic Waianae mountain range.
The ancient volcanic Puowaina landform, 75,000 to 100,000 years old, is more famously known as Punchbowl Crater. It is home to the solemn National Cemetery of the Pacific — the final resting place of more than 60,000 American servicemen and -women. The moving Court of Honor is dedicated to 26,280 soldiers who remain missing in action.
After reflecting at this hallowed ground, we will proceed to a tropical garden, where guests will enjoy a guided walk through shaded pathways, mature trees, and diverse tropical flora. Along the way, your guide will share cultural insights and stories of the land.
On the drive back to the ship, watch for the grand Iolani Palace — the only royal palace in the United States — where you'll hear stories about its illustrious history and the lives of King David Kalakaua and his sister Queen Liliuokalani.
