About 10yrs, started right before we went to Hawaii.
I have been reading Go Visit Hawaii for approximately 16 months now. Found your fabulous site while researching and planning my first holiday to Hawaii in December 2015.
I’m a newbie……just a few months. Enjoy the all the aspects of the site. It helps to keep the anticipation elevated for our trip to Maui next year!
Just over a year – stumbled upon it while re-researching the Big Island for our 10-yr anniversary trip!
About three years now and I love reading it!
maybe two years?
over 6 years and counting!
Close to 4 years now. There’s nothing better than getting emails from you guys! Mahalo and much Aloha!!
About 5 years now; love it! Mahalo for the contest!
I think it’s been close to a decade.
You guys rock !
May be 2 years
I started following this page in 2010 (when we were planning for our first trip to the Big Island). We have been to Hawaii three times since then and are currently planning trip number four in 2017. Thank you for being a great resource!!
2 years. Love the blog lots of good info!
We are celebrating our 30th Anniversary in February. A trip to Hawaii would be amazing! ??????
Aloha ! It’s been almost two years now and always exciting to read about what’s going on in those beautiful islands! Mahalo..
7 years. Great blog to read about Hawaii. I love looking at the pictures.
Wow! Congratulations! Quite an accomplishment! The site is always, informative, helpful, a super resource, fresh and up to date. I think I have been following since near the beginning! Made our first trip to Hawaii in 2005, came back totally addicted and started reading and researching and found your blog. Still love it!
About 7 years. Our first trip was October 2009, our 5th trip was this past May. ?
I learned about your site 1 year ago. We are traveling to Hawaii for our 40th wedding anniversary this will be our first visit. Although 40 years ago my hubby said he would take me there for our honeymoon. We were only 19 yrs old then.Lol better late than never. Your blog is very helpful in planning our visit. Will post pics in the spring of 2017 after our trip. Mahalo
Wow, it’s been about 10 years or so when we were planning our 1st Hawaii trip and I came across you looking up Hawaii online!! So thankful for finding you and getting insight on all things Hawaii. You have such useful information and I just love it and look forward to getting all your emails!! Thank you so much!!
Almost 4 months 🙂
Found your site about 9 months ago while planning our first trip to Maui had a great time – will visit again and explore the other islands.
Subscribed to your site 5 months ago while planning a Nov 2016 trip to Kauai.
I’ve been reading for about a year now. Looking forward to being in Maui again this Christmas. Mahalo!
I have enjoyed your articles for about a year now. You bring the essence of Hawaii for us to enjoy until we make it back.
Sincerely,
Jerry
Started right before our 2013 trip to Oahu and Kauai. Used the valuable info in your articles to help us plan our trip back to Kauai in 2014. Making Kauai plans now for 2018. Keep up the good work guys!
I started reading your posts about 2 years ago after a friend travelled to Oahu. I was lucky enough to travel to Kauai and Oahu this year and your website was invaluable. I located so much information and discovered things I would never have known on my own (nor did my travel agent tell me!)
At least 7 or 8 years. Save the most helpful articles for me to a folder for Hawaii. Then just go back and check the one that pertain to the islands I am visiting. Always look forward to getting your posts to keep me thinking of my trips and returning to Hawaii.
Been reading since my first trip to Hawaii in 2013, three years ago this same week!
only 6 months as I’m planning my first trip for February
I have been reading your articles for over 4 years. We travel there often and your info is very useful. Thank you…..
I’ve only been following for 2 years. Wish I had known about this sooner – we could have used all the tips on our first few trips to Maui!
For over five years. Helpful information before our trips.
Suscribed to this wonderful website 1 year ago while planning our honeymoon on Oahu & Maui 🙂
Happy decade and keep up your great job!
Wow! It’s been 10 years?!?! I’ve been reading since the very beginning! Thank you GoVisitHawaii for being the best way to plan a trip to Hawaii! All of the information and advice is very much appreciated!
6 years and two trips.
I am so happy to have found this site – have been going to Hawaii for many years – I am 65 but just delighted to get your articles which are very new to me – but I so enjoy them.
Just a week, keen to learn more about Hawaii.
For 9 months now and I couldn’t live without it.
Been reading four years now. Go every year now.
I have been reading about one month.
I’ve been reading for almost 9 years- great website! Congrats!!
Already 5 years! ?
9 years …started following you 1 year before our 25th anniversary. Your amazing advice & ideas made our anniversary a perfect celebration!
At least five years – Hawaii is our favorite vacation destination!! Can’t wait to go again!
Right after I came back from Hawaii 2 years ago, and aside from it being my new favorite destination, I also considered how different things are, as a musician in the field now I began researching Hawaiian music. Through Temple University my last year I was able to create an independent research project on Hawaiian music. I reached out to the legendary Pahinui family, and began developing my own network of artist ohana, and we try to find a way to share our music with everyone. We unite with music, bringing people together especially now.
Found your site this past July when we started planning our trip for our 30th anniversary. Your advice and articles have been so helpful – from trip planning, tips for the long flight and most importantly the planning guides for each island. Happy Birthday!
About 3 years…
The past year – we finally made it to Hawaii in August!
Your blog has been incredibly helpful as my wife and I plan our thirtieth wedding anniversary in January 2017
I have been reading the blog for 8 years.
I have been reading the blog for five years now. We have visited Hawaii three times and cannot wait to get back there in 2017!
I’ve been reading your blog and enjoying the photos for about 7 years. Ever since I had to move back to the mainland ?. Keep up the good work. Until my toes are in the sand again.

Go Visit Hawaii helped me plan a family trip to Honolulu for my daughter’s graduation from U. of H. Manoa in December, 2009! We were lucky enough to have 3 generations celebrating Christmas that year and I followed the recommendations for restaurants and holiday events. Wonderful trip!!
Even though we have been enjoying the ALOHA of Hawaii for decades…specifically Maui and Kauai, I continue to check out web sites, publications, anything that highlights the islands. Things change, new adventures come to light, so before we head to the islands…we read! GO VISIT HAWAII is a good source of information to guide you in making your Hawaii vacation plans. Mahalo……
Congratulations on making ten years! Mahalo for the great reads and pictures in the past years!
I just discovered you last weekend in a Google search after the thought that I would love to take my mom for her 80th birthday next year! Your site is so comprehensive and organized, I will spend several weeks reading your site to plan this trip. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and providing this resource. Aloha!
I have been reading this for about 12 months and although I have not visited yet I intend to do so one day!!!
Aloha! My husband and I are avid readers of this website. It has been 5 years and counting. We love all of the great information it has. Keep up the good work! Mahalo
Just recently found you when researching for my 2017 very first vacation to Hawaii.
I recently started reading the blog, & have dreamt of going to Hawaii for many years. Hopefully next summer I’ll be able to make my dream a reality.
I just started following you and I am looking forward to learning more about the beauty of Hawaii. It is a dream (that I intend to make reality) to visit Hawaii. Thanks to you, I will be able to plan an unforgettable trip!
Wow, thank you so much for the kind words!!
