Parallel Events

The National Host Committee welcomes you to explore the very best of the Hawaiian islands by foot, by boat or bike, and to discover the beauty and power of Hawaii through the Special Congress Excursions. These one of a kind adventures are led by knowledgeable local guides and have been organized into smaller groups for more hands-on experiences with the islands’ natural and cultural landscapes. Whether you’re trekking through Volcanoes National Park or tasting your way around the kalo festival on Oahu’s North Shore, we hope you see as we do that there is simply no other place on Earth like Hawaii.
