The company organizes a range of tours including Waimea Canyon and Wailua River excursions, Pearl Harbor history tours with visits to the USS Arizona Memorial and Battleship Missouri, helicopter volcano flights from Hilo, and combined sightseeing itineraries that include Dole Plantation, Waimea Valley, and the Spouting Horn. Each itinerary lists included elements such as airfare between islands on selected departures, guided narration, transportation, and meals when specified. Several tours feature helicopter segments that provide aerial views of active volcanic areas and island coastlines; others include river cruises to the Fern Grotto, walks through lava tubes, and visits to cultural sites and coffee plantations. Polynesian Adventure Activities coordinates logistics for departures from Honolulu and connects travelers with partner carriers and local guides to reach destinations across multiple islands. Tour descriptions note exact inclusions for each trip—such as Bowfin Submarine access, Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum admission, and lunch on specified departures—so travelers can compare options and select tours that match interests and mobility levels. Booking information, departure points, and availability vary by tour; travelers should consult individual tour listings for dates, cancellation policies, and age or fitness requirements. Polynesian Adventure Activities operates within Hawaiian state parks and transportation regulations and works with local providers to deliver guided experiences focused on natural landscapes, cultural history, and wartime memorials. Safety protocols and permit compliance are included where required by local authorities today.
