As local experts with deep knowledge of the islands and years of experience in the travel industry, we know what things actually cost—and where you can save money without missing out.
What Makes This Calculator Different?
Most trip calculators give you a ballpark number based on general assumptions. We don’t do ballparks—we do precision.
This tool is built on real data from the Hawaiʻi Tourism Authority, including average hotel rates, car rental costs, food budgets, and tour spending by island and month. We even project prices forward using multi-year trends to reflect what travelers are likely to spend now—not last year.

Your trip estimate isn’t just numbers — it’s a tool for smarter planning. You’ll receive:
- Personalized cost estimates for each island
- A downloadable PDF with saving strategies
- Travel advice based on your preferences
- A cost estimate for your preferred activities
