We suggest you arrive the Friday or Saturday a week before the race to adjust to the time difference, acclimatize to the heat and humidity, ride the course in multiple sections, run a few times on the highway and Alii Dr. and do the practice swim race on Sunday morning.

We suggest you stay until at least Monday or Tuesday to go to the awards Sunday night and recover a bit from the race before getting back on the plane.

You should book your ticket into Kona International Airport (KOA).  Our package includes the round-trip airport transfer and you will be met by EST staff at the baggage claim.

We do not offer airfares, but we are happy to connect you with a ticket agent we are working with who have offices in the US and Brazil who can assist you with your flight arrangements in English, Spanish or Portuguese.

No. Our travel package includes all the transportation you need including airport transfers, morning for swimming, breakfast and the supermarket, evening shuttles for dinner, shuttles to all race functions, trips to relax on Hapuna Beach and ride the course in multiple sections and some day trips.

Possibly, please ask.

Before the race we offer swims, bike rides and runs on the course. We offer a few different day trips before and after the race for you to explore areas of the Big Island.
