If you want to travel to Hawaii, use a local travel agent like Paula Takamori and Travel to Paradise. When my wife and I decided on a last minute 75th Birthday vacation we called Paula two weeks before our planned departure. She pulled everything together for an 12 day island hopping adventure to Honolulu, Kauai, Maui and the Big Island including hotels, tours, transfers, car rentals and inter-island flights. It all came off without a hitch and we had a wonderful time and spent less than expected. Paula is a consummate Hawaii travel pro whose experience matters in so many ways. You won’t be disappointed

Paula was a joy to work with from the very first time we spoke to her on the phone! I truly felt like I was speaking with a friend. She offered honest advice, guidance and direction when planning our trip to Kauai while keeping our budget in mind and remaining patient with us throughout the process. This was the most stress-free experience we've had while planning a trip. Paula truly gave us the vacation of our dreams! We woke up to the sound of waves (and roosters), explored parts of the world we've never seen before and relaxed in a beachside cabana with endless umbrella drinks. We do not hesitate

We used Travel To Paradise for our trip to Hawaii. Meg was incredible! She stayed in contact with me and really helped me navigate changing our dates/flights/plans during Covid. It was a stressful time with the uncertainty of travel but Meg kept us up to date and helped every step of the way, she really put us at ease. Every excursion and activity she helped plan for us was personalized to our family and exceeded our expectations. Absolutely couldn't have done it without her help and guidance. If you are planning a trip to Hawaii, call Meg at Travel To Paradise!

Paula is amazing! She helped us plan our trip to the big island and Oahu and it was seamless. Flights, hotels, rental cars, activities...I don't know what I would have done without Paula! She made recommendations with our budget in mind and was extremely responsive with even the smallest requests. We will be booking our next trip to Hawaii with her again soon!

My husband and I are volcano nerds, so the state of Hawaii was the logical place for our winter vacation. We also wanted to get to know the state of Hawaii as more than just tourists, although we wanted the tourist experience, too. My problem was I had no idea what to do, where to go or how to make it all happen. Then we lucked into finding Travel to Paradise and talked to Paula. After only a few minutes of talking with me, she knew where to send us.
She organized our entire trip, made all the hotel, flight and car rental arrangements and was easy to communicate with. We went to three islands

Paula was totally awesome. We just can't say enough about what a great experience it was for us to use Paula two years ago for a 25th wedding anniversary. We liked it so darn much that we booked a trip immediately when we got back. We spent 17 days this past March (2019)and had a wonderful time. I most definitely recommend a helicopter tour over Kauai.
I'm wanting to go back now every year !!

Paula is a true travel professional. She and her associates put together a great itinerary for our anniversary trip, both the mainland portion, and our visit to Kauai and the Big Island.
All arrangements for flights, hotels, rental cars and tours blended seamlessly for a great vacation.
Paula is good listener, and diligently follows-up to questions by phone and e-mail. We would not hesitate to recommend her services, and use her again.

Aloha fellow travelers. I wanted to personally let you know about the amazing and outstanding travel planning services of Meg Nichols, from Travel to Paradise. I know a lot of people try to book their travel themselves these days...but think again...using Meg Nichols to help us personally plan and book our Hawaiian Family Adventure was the best decision we made. When I first contacted her, Meg was super fast in her reply. She listened to what my family's unique needs and wants were for our Hawaiian vacation. She put together a SPOT ON itinerary at an amazing price.

My wife and I had never used a travel agent in the past, but decided to give Paula a try after looking at her website and realizing we did not know much about Kauai. From the beginning, she communicated very thoroughly and timely, while not putting any pressure on us to make a decision one way or another. After digesting the information she presented to us, we decided to give it a go. It was the best decision we could have made. Each property we stayed at received us with open arms and took very good care of us, because of Paula. She also placed us in a smaller set of cottages in Western Kauai

My husband and I used Travel to Paradise to plan a trip to Kauai to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. Nicole at Travel to Paradise was wonderful to work with. She responded very quickly to questions and put together a few different options for us to consider based on budget. Since she lives in Hawaii and has visited all the resorts and has done many of the activities, she knew which ones were best - and they did not disappoint. Our hotel accommodations were the BEST!! Everything about our trip went smoothly and was even better than I had anticipated (and that's saying a lot!) As an added bonus
