Old Lahaina Luau is awesome and totally worth it.

Leilani's in Whaler's Village for hapyhour is awesome and highly recommended. I would even argue that they have the best Mai Tai. The location is great as just outside the restaurant is the beautiful stretch of Ka'anapali beach looking towards Black Rock. Leilani's would be great for dinner too - not a dive but a great restaurant.

Aloha Mixed Plate in Lahaina is a must for a local food experience. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu. You will not regret it.

Star Noodle also in Lahaina is awesome. Japanese restaurant with a menu full of variety. Get the steamed pork buns to start.

Leoda's Pie Shop and restaurant in Olowalu is another great local spot. Great for lunch. Their burgers are awesome as well as their desserts.

Duke's is a great restaurant with an exceptional view. Not a dive, but a great choice for a nice evening out at sunset. Their breakfast is insanely good too and much cheaper than dinner. I had the Kalua Pork hash skillet...so frickin' good.

The north-west side of the island past Napili and Kapalua is highly underrated. I recommend driving it all the way around the north side and back into Wailuku. Make sure to stop at this spot: https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g29220-d672529-Reviews-Nakalele_Blowhole-Maui_Hawaii.html. Was a highlight for my wife and I on our last trip.

Speaking of Napili Bay, definitely go check that out. Beautiful, quiet bay with excellent snorkeling, swimming, and view of Molokai. The sea house restaurant right on the bay is great too, and sitting on their patio can be one of the most relaxing experiences while staring at the beautiful view of the bay.

If you both like snorkeling, a boat excursion to Molikini is well worth it. There are plenty of boats that regularly make trips out there. Also, Black Rock is a great place to snorkel where you have a great chance of encountering Honu (Sea Turtle).

I could go on forever... Enjoy your honeymoon! Maui truly is an incredible place. Also, if you want more details of what (and what not) to do/go, pick up this book https://www.amazon.com/Maui-Revealed-Guidebook-Andrew-Doughty/dp/0996131809/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1473873078&sr=1-1&keywords=maui+revealed+7th+edition.

I am in Kauai RIGHT NOW. Leaving tomorrow. :(

There are a lot of things to do in Kauai, but it's kind of an outdoor activity based place, and pretty much all of those activities are a no-go during pregnancy. (Full disclosure: I'm still TTC and therefore only a lurker in this community.)

But: there are great beaches. I've done a TON of snorkeling, laying around on the beach, etc., which is all perfectly safe during pregnancy.

I would talk to your health care provider, but I feel like kayaking would be okay to do while pregnant? If so, there is this really cool kayak/hike that we did to the sacred falls which I would definitely recommend.

A helicopter tour is really cool too and you get to see the whole island in a hour, including the Napali coast. I'd talk to your doctor about potentially flying in a helicopter to see if that would be okay. The Napali coast is the most beautiful thing I've seen in my life! But when we took a boat tour, the seas were so rough that the tour company flat out would not take anyone pregnant.

However, there are other boat tours that you can do that aren't in such rough seas, like a sunset cruise or something like that.

To be honest, there isn't too much shopping to do in Kauai. It's probably the least developed of the islands (which is pretty cool, IMO). But old Koloa town is really cool to walk around in. (I really liked Kauai Nut Roasters because they give out tons of free samples and we got people back home a lot of presents from there.)

I really liked this guide book: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0981461018/ref=redir_mdp_mobile/190-3792190-5179630

The restaurants tend to be kind of pricy, but there are great hole-in-the-wall type of places to eat that are less pricy. Definitely look into which fish you should avoid when pregnant. Pretty much every restaurant has fresh fish, all of what I had was EXCELLENT. But some fish contains high amounts of mercury, which definitely needs to be avoided while pregnant.

Do you know which part of the island you're staying on?

Also, I'd be happy to answer questions you might have about Kauai! It's so beautiful!

So many! I found our itinerary from 3 years that I'll copy from. We were incredibly lucky in that there wasn't rain for 3 weeks prior to us getting there so none of the trails were muddy but make sure you bring shoes you don't mind walking ankle deep (literally) in mud. We referenced this book to come up with our itinerary because our friends suggested it to us and I highly recommend it.

Hotel

Hilton Garden Inn Kauai Wailua Bay

This is where we stayed and we were super happy with it. It's right next to a beach park and we got to watch the sunrise every morning on the beach listening to the waves. The hotel provided us with a straw beach blanket and a cooler and we used that throughout our trip. Also it's walking distance away from a strip mall that had a lot of good food options. We were able to walk there every evening for dinner which was nice since we didn't have to drive.

Food

Lava Lava Beach Club

The happy hour is amazing. The prices are super reasonable (don't go for dinner or lunch, the prices are absurd). You get to have the toes in the sand experience with $3 mai tai's and super yummy appetizers. I can't explain how much we loved this place. We still talk about it to this day.

Hikes

Pihea Trail

This was by far our favorite. It's basically bouldering throughout the entire hike which was awesome. Be prepared to get muddy!

Kalalau Trail

Unfortunately we didn't get to do this since it was closed for trail maintenance but apparently it's a must. We want to go back just to do this trail. Word of advice, check online to make sure it's open before driving all the way out there.

Group Activities

We booked two group activities because we didn't want to rent our own kayaks or stand up paddle boards and we wouldn't have known where to go with them. We had a blast and the guides we had were fun and I highly recommend it:

• Kauai Stand-Up Paddle Board Tours – Downwind River Adventure
  
• Wailua Waterfall Kayak
  
  There's a ton more to do and if you are interested I can share my itinerary with you, I didn't want to make this post too long (too late). There's a lot of great ideas in the guide book. Let me know if you have any questions!

I'm not a local but here are some highlights from our last trip.

• Ho'opi'i Falls - Parking in residential area and is limited, probably about 2 miles in to the second set of falls with rope swing. Hike up and over then down steep cliff to get to the bottom, its worth it.
  
• Queen's Bath - Crazy muddy and slippery hike but not far. We just did it barefoot. Not much parking, go early. Amazing little pool to swim in, cliff jumping, swimming with big sea turtles. Highly recommend.
  
• Kalalau Trail to Hanakapiai beach - One of the prettiest hikes in Kauai. Awesome beach at the end. Bring water. Trail can get muddy and slippery when its been raining.
  
• Napali Coast - Sunset cruise. Its pretty amazing.
  
  Also like mentioned by u/nocknockwhosthere, Kauai Revealed is worth the money and has pretty much everything you need.

Can't speak to your Oahu itinerary, but I can provide my two cents on Maui.

Day 6: We did the Old Lahaina Luau and it was great, very highly rated. So if you haven't already booked Lele, I'd compare the two.

Day 8: As for Haleakala, you don't need a tour, assuming you have a rental car. Just drive up the mountain and grab a spot. Start early, though. There's usually a line of cars winding their way up in the wee hours of the morning to catch the sunrise. There's a fee to get into the National Park, but that's all. There's also some hiking you could check out up there. EDIT: I've learned from other commenters here that you do need a reservation, my apologies! More information here.

Day 9: We didn't do any whale watching but did take a snorkeling cruise to Lanai with Trilogy. I'd highly recommend the company — very professional, great service and an all-around good time. And they also have whale watching.

Day 10: We didn't use an app for Road to Hana, simply picked out what we wanted to see ahead of time and made adjustments along the way. Again, start early. If tour buses are catching up to you, things will start getting real crowded real quick.

I'd actually encourage some open days to just chill, so your whole trip is not go go go. But you could fill in part of one of your days with snorkeling at Honolua Bay or check out the Maui Ocean Center.

Day 13: Ali'i Kula Lavender Farm is cool, but we found it to be an hour's diversion at best. YMMV, of course. Mama's Fish House is dooope!

And I'd say Maui Revealed: The Ultimate Guidebook is worth a purchase.

Get this book: The Ultimate Kauai Guidebook: Kauai Revealed

It is SUPER helpful. That being said our highlights from our trip were the helicopter ride, ATVing, and kayaking. I highly recommend kayaking the Wailua River to Secret Waterfall, we just rented the kayak and did it ourselves rather than do an official tour, super easy and nice to go at our own pace, prepare to get muddy lol. I also highly recommend spending at least a day to drive up Waimea Canyon and hike around, the views are jaw dropping (see my post history for my engagement pictures there). There’s also a great restaurant nearby that’s a little hole in the wall place called Da Booze Shop, great place to refuel in between hikes.

Edit: I forgot to mention if you’re a dog person and have some flexibility in your schedule you can check out a dog at the Kauai Humane Society and take them on a field trip. We did this and took him to the beach, it was a blast.

get this book: http://www.amazon.com/The-Ultimate-Kauai-Guidebook-Revealed/dp/0981461018

I went last March and it was incredibly helpful. there's also an app which was equally useful.

I didn't plan too much and it worked out really well. each day I had maybe 1-3 destinations in mind, but gave myself a lot of time to relax and explore.

my favorite places were Waimea Canyon, Botanical Gardens just north of Spouting Horn and Ke'e Beach. renting a car through Costco was super cheap. also opted to rent as small carriage house just north of Old Koloa Town (central location was great) instead of the condo/hotel thing; waaaay more quiet and comfortable. when I go back, I would stay on the north side of the island if I could afford it (rather ritzy), but I was very much charmed by the west coast of the island. Poipu area seemed more family oriented and the east coast was probably my least favorite (in terms of paradise, mind you...it's all great).

one thing I would've done different is opt for a helicopter tour instead of taking a boat tour. the water was pretty rough and 4 hours on it was more than enough.

Finding camping in the parks will be very, very difficult. Some parks are full months in advance. They may have a first-come, first-serve area but you will ABSOLUTELY need to be there at 8am. If you sleep in the car, you will get a hefty fine. Plan ahead. Even camping outside the park in a private campground will be difficult to find and frequently fully booked. Realize that "outside" the park can be more than two hour's drive easy. Can really put a dent in your in-park time. Get a National Parks of the West book. Super, super helpful. Will outline all the campsites and outside park camping and hotel/hostel options and everything you need to know like hours, etc. I used Fodor's but they're all probably pretty similar.

http://www.amazon.com/Fodors-Complete-National-Full-color-Travel/dp/0307928462

I've been to all the national parks. Yes, all of them. Have fun!

It seems like you have a good grasp on what to expect on your trip which is great. I would suggest going to the hotel and saving the GTNP visit on your way to the airport.

Lamar Valley is a pretty big area and it's best to visit it early in the morning or at dusk as bears and wolves are most active at that time of day. If you see a bunch of people with spotting scopes and large camera lenses standing by the side of the road they are most likely observing one of those big animals.

If you want some books to help you with your trip, Yellowstone Treasures: The Traveler's Companion to the National Park is a very detailed one. For day hikes A Ranger's Guide to Yellowstone Day Hikes book is good and Trail Guides Yellowstone web site is an excellent source for all things Yellowstone.

I stayed at the Hilo Tropical Gardens hostel. Super nice, great people and quiet. plus, they also run a homemade ice cream shop!

You can get to Mauna Kea no problem with any rental. For Waipio most cars with decent clearance should be fine as long as you take it nice and easy, and ride a low gear. don't be an idiot and burn your brakes out. would recommend a rental with a manual transmission.

But for true back county exploration 4x4 or by foot is your best option.

Big Island Revealed and Big Island Trailblazer are excellent books. you should also get a detailed map.

Check out The Green Sand beach, close to South Point. Its amazing. drive down and spend the whole day, or camp out.

as for the ganja, it's all over. you just need to ask the right person. Pakalolo is it's Hawaiian name btw.

That sounds good. I think Billings is usually the sweet spot for price/time. When we went a decade ago we actually flew into Salt Lake City, but that's a really long drive.

Yellowstone is amazing - you'll have a great time. If you haven't come across it yet, I highly recommend picking up a copy of Yellowstone Treasures: The Traveler's Companion to the National Park. The sheer scale of Yellowstone can be a bit intimidating and I found this book to be the best way to get a handle on things - far better than any of the other guides out there.

The Baranof on Greenwood is a good dive bar. As is the Kort Haus (known for its exotic meats and proximity to the Zoo)

If you are into dive bars there is a really good book of Seattle dive bars. Came out a few years ago but is probably still a good source.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0097D7GR6

Pretty cheap kindle book, and you don't even really need to buy it: you can just get the list of bars from the Amazon "peek inside" free preview thing. Most of them are still open but some are not...the Buckaroo for instance is closed. Man I am glad I took a few minutes to look through that...it is really an excellent list of Seattle bars.

How long are you going to be here? There's so much cool stuff to do in Oahu. JimmyHavok already grabbed 2 of my ideas, the Diamond Head Hike, and Hanauma Bay (literally 3 minutes from my house) which is pretty solid snorkeling, but it can get crowded quickly. Come early!
There's a lot of pretty badass hikes, ranging from an hour to a full day. If you can find the book Oahu Revealed, I highly recommend it for finding all sorts of fun little trips, and it has contact information for all sorts of places.
One note: If you've heard about Stairway to Heaven / Haiku stairs, don't even try to take them. They post a guard at 3AM (his hours just recently changed from 7AM) and even finding the unmarked trailhead is a huge pain. There's plenty of other fun things to do.

I've been on vacation to Kauai, Maui, and Oahu many times and Maui is by far the best to be a tourist on if you want to do more than just sit on the same beach for the entire time you are there. Oahu has way too many people on the beaches. Kauai is really beautiful but there are barely any people if you want to do something during the night. If your parents are retired they will love Kauai (As long as they can still move around easily) but I would recommend going to Maui for vacation.
P.S: get a guidebook for Maui and Kauai since there are a ton of small beaches that are truly amazing

Ask the natives / hotel desk guy about the Queens Bath and head there in the afternoon. There is a ton of hiking and other fun free stuff pretty much anywhere you go. If there is a full moon or close enough get yourself to a beach that has a good clear view of it and show up at midnight, it'll be just like dusk on a normal clear night, wicked bright.

Also check out this book, has every fun thing imaginable. I've spent about for weeks there on various trips and every time I find something new.

http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Kauai-Guidebook-Revealed/dp/0971727953

People celebrate 1-week anniversaries with vacations now? :)

It's really going to depend on what type of people your parents are. If they want a resort experience right on a nice beach, they should do that! If they want central base with a kitchen to "save money"^1, they should do that. If they want less structured experience, a BnB is perfect for that.

You've got a few months, so you should probably buy them Maui Revealed for Christmas. Flip through it with them and get a feel for what kind of Hawai'i trip they want.

I've had friends and family of all sorts, and people get really unhappy when they want one thing but get the other. Heck, on this sub, people who like the whitewashed and manicured resorts of Wailea have described Kihei as ghetto!

With what you've said, I'd get a hotel or condo (AirBnb, VRBO, Homeaway) in Kihei so they are central to all the islands opportunities. Lahaina is popular and drier, but requires more driving to get to things like Haleakala, Hana, Makena, etc.

Something to be aware of: The I'ao Valley area is currently closed for an indefinite amount of time. Also, Haleakala is going to start requiring permits to view the sunrise.

Search some through this sub and you'll find some fairly exhaustive eating recommendations.

^1 I'm a firm believer that most people that do this don't actually save money. They end up eating out and eating leftovers mostly and buying too much food from Costco

Sorry it took me 2 days to see this post- Bad Mod.. bad!

One of my personal favorite can-do-in-stock-form-and-still-challenge-yourself trails (also a bit of proving grounds for any new mods I do as it is so close to Denver- Yankee Hill Road

I would also pick up a copy of this book for future reference.. This one has a lot to do with trails in Southern/ Central CO- but there is a version 2 of it that has trails that are a bit more northern.
I have used these books religiously since highschool for leading trails around CO, and even Moab. It is a great resource. For everything else- there is Traildamage.com- You can use the map to drill into trails closest to you or where you are looking to go out and the descriptions are pretty good most of the time (i.e. written by users... so think of Yelp reviews.)

Finally, It is a bit late for me this weekend, and I am travelling next weekend, but if I remember I will hit you up next time I am headed out/ up- would be happy to show you around.

Molly's cool. She has my dream job and I'm not even mad. She made better life decisions, she's beautiful, and she seems fairly knowledgeable. No one knows their shit like Dei but that HD is a killer.

She wrote a book. You should read it. Let me know.

Zumoff calls her Mols all the time like they're BFF but in a perfect world I like to think Molly Sullivan and Sheena Parveen get drunk on wine coolers and watch Katherine Heigl movies and relive their experimental college days.

I love my home but shit gets pretty bleak in Philly sometimes. Sheena's ass & Molly's rack are straight beacons of hope.
Show ya luv.

I went for two weeks in 2006, spending one week on Oahu and one on Maui. I stayed in the Mariott hotel right on Waikiki beach and I highly recommend it. As for restaurants, I don't remember many of them, but the Cheeseburger in Paradise was a pretty cool place. As for things to do I recommend this guidebook. It contains anything you could conceivably do on the island, including reviews of many restaurants.

Never been to Maui, but the Big Island was amazing and much less "built up" - you can go on a day trip?

I would recommend a book called Maui Revealed - the authors write books about Hawaii, and their book on The Big Island was the best we found.

We bought this book for our Amazon Kindle App and used as a guide to find all these cool off the beaten track places on Maui. Especially on the Road to Hana.

https://www.amazon.com/Maui-Revealed-Guidebook-Andrew-Doughty/dp/0996131884/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=maui+guidebook&link_code=qs&qid=1565370116&s=gateway&sourceid=Mozilla-search&sr=8-3

If you like to try an insane amount of fruit at once. Set up a tasting and tour at Ono Organic Farms. I fell in love of Maui mangoes here and it ruined all other mangoes for me.http://www.onofarms.com/


If you love poke, you will find some of the best in regular local grocery stores. Just ask the locals and they will point you to the best places to go. It will be cheaper and taste as good if not better than the overpriced versions in the tourist trap restaurants.

Pretty good resources:

It's not just bears you have to worry about. You also don't want little critters chewing through your expensive gear to get at interesting-smelling stuff. It's always a good idea to hang food, toothpaste, etc:
http://www.backpacker.com/skills/how-to-hang-a-bear-bag/

You can find hiking and backpacking groups on Meetup.com

If a gun gives you peace of mind, by all means take it. However, it's definitely not a necessity and I've never seen a backpacker carrying a gun in Idaho.

Good luck!

I go to Moab every year in my stock Toyota FJ. I would recommend getting this book for your journey. It gives tons of info on all of the trails (turn-by-turn directions), and tells you how difficult they are. I would stick to the easy trails in your Bronco, I've found that "intermediate" in Moab is pretty hardcore. There are plenty of easy trails out there that will still get your heart racing and provide ridiculous views. Two of my favorites are Gemini Bridges and Long Canyon. I'll be there next weekend!

I recommend the bike trip down Haleakela. The views are breathtaking.

I also HIGHLY recommend this book. If you do Road to Hana make sure to stop at some of the points of interest in the book!

Absolutely!

Here's the website for the trailhead\campground (no fees for backpackers).

I think the best resource for hiking the area is a book by someone named Margaret Fuller. It provides in-depth info regarding the trails and destinations, as well as some great ideas for the different loops you can do.

I went there for 2 weeks in June. Spent about $800 total, housing included. But the number will vastly depend on your needs. Will be renting a car? Rental rates are very cheap on the island as there is fierce competition. I paid around $250 for a week even as a younger driver. Hitchhiking is also very prominent, and there is a very affordable shuttle bus along the main highway during certain hours (ends around 9pm). Food is plentiful and honestly not insanely expensive if you are able to find the places locals eat. Highly recommend [this] (https://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Kauai-Guidebook-Revealed/dp/0996131841?keywords=kauai+revealed&qid=1536774895&sr=8-1&ref=mp_s_a_1_1book) for an extremely thorough look at pricing specifics. Enjoy your trip though! I'm having a nasty craving for chicken in a barrel at the moment.

I've done Los Padres by myself when I first got my Jeep. Fun and mellow, with some cool camp sites.

This book is great, and I've done 3 or 4 of the trails solo.

https://www.amazon.com/Northern-California-Backroads-4-Wheel-Trails/dp/0966497651

You're going to want an America the Beautiful Pass. $80 for unlimited national park admissions for one car for one year. Most parks are around $20. I also recommend getting one of the National Parks of the West guidebooks so you can link them all together and what-not. I've been to all the parks in a previous version of this book http://www.amazon.com/Fodors-Complete-National-Full-color-Travel/dp/0307928462/ref=dp_ob_image_bk

Linking national parks is the classic, American way to road trip. Enjoy yourself. I've been all over the world but my favorite trip was spending a few months living in my pickup in the parks.

Dude, I'm gonna hook you up. Kauai (one of the Hawaiian islands) is where you need to go. Its where they filmed Jurassic Park--so you know the kind of scenery to expect. None of the buildings on the island are over 3 stories tall (by law I think). There's tons of nature stuff to experience: hiking, scuba, snorkel, surf, waterfalls to jump off of. My wife and I went on our honeymoon. We had a blast. We rented this place for the week. We used this guide book and didn't spend a dime on activities. Use Kayak to book your flight. You will have to rent a car. I suggest you get a jeep, because there's an awesome beach on the west side of the island that you have to drive off-road to get to.

Rented the place for a week, got groceries, snorkel gear, car rental, etc and you've got a great time for under $2,000 +airfare.

Get the book The Ultimate Kaua'i Guidebook: Kaua'i Revealed. It is just fantastic and has everything you need to know. There is an iphone app too!

Also there are several local car rental companies that sometimes are way cheaper than the big companies. We had a great experience with Gingerbread Car Rentals (http://cars-kauai.com/) but we've also rented from Enterprise. http://kauairentacar.com/ is good too.

Plan on going snorkeling, even if you have never gone rent some gear or buy some cheap stuff at the K-Mart and go. Lydgate Park on the east shore has a huge walled in swimming area that is full of fish and is great for a first time snorkeler.


Go to the farmers markets.


Oh, and buy this book and if you hike this one

I concur with the others. Save the other island for another trip. Maui is probably better for most honeymooners, but unless you really hate nature you're going to love Kauai for the 6 full days. Get the The Ultimate Kauai Guidebook: Kauai Revealed and choose your activities. I recommend the Smith's Kauai Luau.

I lived on Oahu for 3 1/2 years and this book was my bible. Solid reviews and advice. If you're heading to the outer islands they have Big Island, Maui, and Kauai as well. Enjoy!

http://www.amazon.com/Oahu-Revealed-Ultimate-Honolulu-Revisited/dp/0981461026/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1304031662&sr=8-1

Pretty sure it's just a standard forest service road.

But
These books are great for trails.
Pretty much the bible.
