Highlights of The Paradise Tour:
Spectacular views and surprising open road riding
are waiting for you on this unique three-Island tour.
First we spent two great days riding on Kauai,
visiting the north coast past Princeville,
then the south coast and up into Waimea Canyon State Park.
Then we fly off to Maui, pick up our Harleys and ride
two days there. We'll experience the diverse areas of
Haleakala, Hana and Kapalua. Finally we fly to the big
island,
Hawaii, mount our Harleys and enjoy two more days
of beautiful roads and scenery, from Kona to
King Kamehameha's birthplace, from Hilo to
Volcanoes National Park we'll see it all.
NOTE: On this unique tour, consider bringing the entire family.
