Destination Hawaii (Oahu)

Six things to do

1. Admire: Take in the scenery from above with a helicopter ride. Hawaii has a diverse range of landscapes, from a 300-metre cascading waterfall to lush valleys made famous by the Jurassic Park movie and white-sand beaches and turquoise waters. Some of these sights can only be seen by air because they are too dangerous to access (legally) by foot. Tip: wear dark clothes for the helicopter ride or your photos may end up with your reflection in them.

2. Drive: Around the scenic coastline up to North Shore. Most cars on this trip are driven by tourists, so if you see a motorcade turning off at a particular point you know you’re close to the next photo-worthy pit stop. These include coral beaches where you can scuba dive, blowhole lookouts, pristine beaches and winding roads that squeeze between the ocean and mountain ranges.
