Hawaii By Cruise Ship
by Anne Vipond
First Edition
Surf-soaked beaches, swaying palms and the sound of the slack-key guitar
– there is no cruising paradise quite like Hawaii. Includes insider
tips on selecting and preparing for your Hawaii cruise. Over 400 color
photographs and dozens of maps support the narrative of this exciting
cruise. Covers all major islands and ports with pre and post suggestions
for hotels on Oahu and Maui and detail shore excursion information. Also
includes color pull-out map.
This isn't a guidebook that was slapped together
to get in on the relatively new Hawaiian cruise experience. The guide
is well-thought out, well researched and beautifully executed. It's as
good a guidebook as I've seen. Not only do you get the meat-and-potatoes
information on the islands but you also get the exotic desserts, as well.

These books (by Anne Vipond) should be considered
high priority. Vipond, an accomplished travel writer, offers in-depth
histories of each region, descriptions of the ships that sail there, and
suggestions on what to see at each port, all complemented by a large pull-out
map. A core resource for libraries.
Library Journal
Book details history and culture that make Hawaii unique among states, then details
the best shore excursions. Solves touring logistics.

I'm taking my family on a Hawaiian Cruise aboard the Pride of Hawaii this month.
Even though I've been selling Hawaii forever, I have found this book to be an
invaluable resource for anyone planning a cruise to Hawaii. If you only have a
day or two in each port of call, you can really struggle with picking the right
excursions or validating the one's you may have already picked. This is like a
Bible for anyone cruising to Hawaii.
