Expertly Crafted Hawaiian Adventures Aboard Norwegian Cruise Line’s (NCL) Pride of America
When it comes to unforgettable cruise experiences, few compare to Norwegian Cruise Line’s 7-night Pride of America itinerary — sailing roundtrip, year-round from Honolulu.
As the only U.S.-flagged large cruise ship, Pride of America offers something truly exceptional: it's the only cruise ship that sails entirely within the Hawaiian Islands without the requirement of visiting a foreign port. This rare distinction means you can explore all four major islands — Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and the Big Island — In just one seamless, seven-night journey.
With no time-consuming detours and no need for international travel, you’ll enjoy more time in port, including two full days each on Maui and Kauai, and 2 stops on the Big Island (both Hilo and Kailua-Kona) giving you the chance to dive deeper into the natural beauty, culture, and adventure of each island.
I often describe Norwegian’s Pride of America as a floating Hawaiian resort — a relaxed, comfortable, and incredibly convenient way to explore the islands. There’s no need for inter-island flights, hotel check-ins and check-outs, or the constant packing and unpacking that come with traditional land-based travel.
Plus, with Norwegian’s More at Sea package, Pride of America becomes the only truly all-inclusive experience in the Hawaii isalnds, offering even more value and ease. It's an effortless, all-in-one way to fully immerse yourself in the beauty, culture, and spirit of the Aloha State — without ever leaving the country (when flying from/to the mainland).
Wake Up to Paradise, Every Day
There’s nothing quite like waking up each morning to a new island waiting just beyond your balcony. From watching the sunrise over Haleakala Crater in Maui, to hiking the breathtaking Waimea Canyon in Kauai, or visiting the lava fields and black sand beaches of the Big Island — each day brings an entirely new adventure. And since there are no sea days required, you’ll make the most of every moment in the islands.
An American Crew, with Hawaiian Heart
Another defining feature of Pride of America is its crew. With over 70% of the staff made up of U.S. citizens, this ship offers a guest experience unlike any other at sea. The service is warm, intuitive, and rooted in a distinctly American hospitality style. Many crew members have been with Pride of America for years, and their deep connection to Hawaii is genuine — you’ll feel it in every interaction.
Over my many sailings aboard Pride of America, I’ve built personal relationships with the officers and crew, giving me unique insight and access that allows me to offer highly personalized guidance to my clients. From selecting the ideal stateroom, to recommending local excursions, to navigating port logistics, I’m here to ensure you get the most out of every island and every moment.
The Ideal Island-Hopping Cruise for Every Traveler
Whether you’re a couple celebrating a milestone, a family spanning generations, or a solo traveler seeking island inspiration, the Pride of America is incredibly versatile. The ship offers Hawaiian-inspired dining, locally focused entertainment, and cultural enrichment programs that bring the islands to life onboard.
With no international flights required (for Americans coming from the Mainland), no long sea days, and the ability to see four islands in seven days, this is truly one of the most efficient — and enriching — ways to explore Hawaii.
Let’s plan your perfect Hawaiian escape aboard Pride of America — a journey filled with unforgettable moments, unmatched convenience, and the true spirit of Aloha.

Our trip to Ireland was great. As you know, Ireland is a wonderful place. We enjoyed many beautiful sights, exhibits and museums. We spent time walking around touristy areas as well as non- touristy neighborhoods and loved them all.
I especially want to thank you for your suggestion for me to purchase additional car insurance to cover the wheels, mirrors and glass. While filing out the paperwork, I listened to several Hertz employees tell costumers that the extra insurance was available, but “not really necessary”. Once on the roads, it was very obvious that the extra insurance is important! And, by the way, to my relief, the inspector upon my returning the car did not mention the new scratches, and neither did I!!
The first Hotel we stayed in, the Granville Hotel, was lovely. Everything about it was wonderful. The room was pretty, comfortable and the hotel restaurant pub was equally lovely and the food was great. All the staff was eager to do anything to make our

Highlights of the trip included: a tour of Waterford Crystal. The Blarney Castle, Lehinch beach town, Connor Pass and Gap of Dunloe in Dingle, The Cliffs of Moher, Cupan Tae Shoppe in Galway,
