You Say Hawaii And I Say Kauai, Let's Go Have Some Fun

Kauai Hawaii has been a popular tourist and vacation destination for literally decades.  Planning a vacation to anywhere in Hawaii will deliver you onto beautiful, clean beaches, natural scenery and a huge number of things to do and see.

When traveling, the thing to remember is that the trip is about a holiday or vacation.  From the minute you enter the airplane until getting back home, your vacation should be focused on lowering the stress level in your life and getting balance back in your world.  Yes, it will cost more but in the end, the vacation will have done it's job and you will leave Hawaii refreshed and ready to go back to your career or business.

By lowering the stress level, we're talking about getting the services necessary to keep from having got concern yourself with any difficulties.  Take for example getting around at your destination of Kauai.  You "could" rent a car and try to find you way around unfamiliar territory.  If getting lost, being late, dealing with traffic and the stress of other motorists is your idea of a vacation, go to New York City.

If however, getting to see the sights and enjoying the island is more like vacation time, consider using the services of a tour company, or even hire out a car and driver for an afternoon.  Another potential possibility is public transportation.  It runs on a regular schedule and you get to people watch while getting around for almost no cash.  The car and driver is more expensive but they can get you around to see the local side of the island while the public transportation route takes you to the more popular areas.  Maybe using both on different days can give you the benefit of an enjoyable vacation without the worry of a car rental, gasoline, accidents, parking etc. 

If you plan on doing some Kauai island sightseeing and need a car rental, consider one with limited miles and leave it at home whenever possible.  A weekly rental can cost a couple of hundred dollars but the you shouldn't feel a need to use it everytime a short trip is in order.

Another idea to lower the stress level is to consider getting a condominium or rental until with a full kitchen.  This is especially good if you're traveling with kids.  A quick trip to the neighborhood food store can take care of the childrens eating issues and take you off the breakfast, lunch and dinner, time schedule.  Get food that's easy to prepare and let the kids fend for themselves at least sometimes.  This gives them a sense of independence and allows you to sleep in occasionally during the vacation.

The key to a fun and enjoyable Kauai vacation or any Hawaiian vacation, is to get out of the rut and schedule that's your life back home.  Do different things, experiment, see new sights, enjoy a different culture.  In all, a Kauai vacation can recharge your batteries and give a new outlook on your world back home
