HAWAII with family, Hawaii with children
This family's experience:

Activities: We did a 7.5 km hike, which was a bit difficult for the children

Highlights: The landscapes were really superb and reminiscent of the American Grand Canyon. The picnic in the company of the "mini chickens" was worth the effort! ✨
