Sightseeing
The road to Hana is unforgettable. It is an all day trip, and can be accessed on a tour, or with your own vehicle. I recommend getting a guide book so you know what you are looking for at each stop along the way. The road is windy and narrow, but the scenery is amazing and worth checking out.

Also a day trip, pack jackets, the elevation gain will cause temperatures to drop. The views are incredible from this dormant volcano.
