Montana-based tour company Austin Adventures has introduced a Hawaii cruise itinerary to its lineup for the winter 2018 to spring 2019 schedule.
The company has doubled its number of cruise itineraries from six to 12, and other new excursions include Africa, Australia and Costa Rica.
The Hawaii Seascapes cruise is an eight-day trip aboard a 145-foot vessel that can accommodate 36 guests. The itinerary includes stops on four islands, Molokai, Hawaii Island, Lanai and Maui, and numerous opportunities for activities such as paddle boarding, kayaking, hiking, farm tours, snorkeling and more. The cruise is offered November 2018 to April 2019, during whale-watching season, and the per-person double rate starts at $4,695.
"Our cruise itineraries are expedition-oriented, which means that because the ships are small we can bring our guests over the water onto often-unvisited shores, surrounded by pristine wilderness," Dan Austin, founder and president, said in a statement. "We have impressed people with our land-based adventures for years. We're always looking for ways less traveled where we believe the best surprises and experiences are to be found."
