All Reviews for Diamond Head, Oahu

Matthew went above and beyond to make our experience memorable! Definitely bring lots of water and good hiking shoes as the falls can be a bit muddy. The driver provided water, hiking sticks, and bug spray which is a must. Great experience

The driver spoke English and was very kind! No need to worry if you can't speak English! The view from the top is amazing!

英語のドライバーさんでしたがとっても優しかったです！英語が喋れなくても心配ありません！
頂上からの景色も最高です！

The bus company staff were near the bus stop, and it was easy to identify them because they were wearing yellow aloha shirts. It was convenient to be dropped off right in front of the hotel.

バス会社の人はバス停のそばにおられ、黄色のアロハだったのでわかりやすかったです。
ホテルの目の前で降ろしてもらえたので楽でした。

The guide was fluent in Japanese and made some great jokes, which was a wonderful start! It was a tour that took us to places we wouldn't have been able to go on our own. The guide provided detailed information about each location's features and recommended shops, and after giving us a thorough tour from the car, they dropped us off, making it very convenient. I was really happy to see turtles in a place that wasn't even on the tour route. I would love to join again if I have the chance. Thank you very much!

ガイドさんは、日本語ペラペラでギャグかましてくれたり良い始まりでした！自分達ではなかなかでは行けないところに連れて行ってくれるツアーでした。それぞれの特徴やそこでのお勧めのお店なども詳しく、車に乗ったまま一通り案内してくれた後降ろしてくれたので、回りやすくて大変助かりました。ツアーコースには入っていない？所で亀を見せてくれてすごく嬉しかったです。またチャンスがあれば参加したいと思います。ありがとうございました。

A group of three close friends for 40 years. We had always wanted to visit Hawaii together, and this year, we celebrated our 60th birthdays and made that dream come true! We were moved by the beauty of Waikiki from the summit of Diamond Head. The journey to the top was not as tough as we expected, and even after turning 60, we were able to enjoy the scenery while climbing.

４０年来の仲良し３人組。
いつかは３人で行ってみたいと思っていたハワイ、今年還暦を迎え夢を実現させました！
ダイヤモンドヘッド山頂から見るワイキキの美しさに感動しました。
山頂までの道のりは思ったよりもキツくなく、還暦過ぎでも景色を楽しみながら登ることができました。

Totally recommend you do it. Yes hard work but worth it at the end.

The parasailing was included for free. We went around Waikiki and headed to Ala Moana Shopping Center. From the second-floor seats, it was wonderful to enjoy the pleasant breeze while looking at the beach and the canals. The friendly and lively talk from the driver was also enjoyable. Mahalo!

I have participated in the Kailua Diamond Head Tour and the Magic Island Waterfront Tour with friends, family, and my spouse, and each time there are surprises and discoveries. I join these tours every time I go to Hawaii. This time, the meeting location was a bit hard to find, so I was glad to take an Uber from Waikiki. I hope the Kailua Tour will resume next year.

ハワイ島での体験を含めカイルア　ダイアモンドヘッドツアー　マジックアイランドウォターウォターフロントツアー　友達とも家族とも夫婦でも参加してますが　毎回驚きと間道が有りHAWAIIに行く度に参加してます
今回集後場所がちょっと分かりにくかったので　waikikiからUberで行って良かった
来年カイルアツアーが再開されるといいな

The Diamond Head hike was absolutely unforgettable—a perfect blend of adventure and breathtaking views. The tour was smooth and hassle-free from start to finish, thanks to our awesome bus driver, Moko, who brought the perfect mix of local knowledge and good vibes. He made everything easy, from pick-up to drop-off, setting the tone for a brilliant morning. Reaching the summit and taking in the panoramic views of Waikiki was the ultimate reward—definitely a highlight of the trip

It was my first time on a Segway, but they taught me how to ride it carefully, and I had a really fun experience. I'm glad I signed up. I want to ride again!

初めてのセグウェイでしたが、乗り方を丁寧に教えて頂き、とっても楽しく体験することが出来ました。
申し込んで良かったです。また乗りたい〜

Picked up on time, arrived at Diamond Head with plenty of time to take pictures etc. Family friendly tour, the malasadas were so yummy! Great views, no rush to finish the hike.

The sunrise at the summit was breathtaking, the hike up is a bit hard as it is dark out, but the views from the top make every step worth it!

It was amazing! There are so many shops I want to visit in Haleiwa Town, and I think it would be even better if we had a bit more free time!

最高でした！ハレイワタウンで寄りたいお店がたくさんあり、自由時間がもう少し長いとさらに良いと思います！

I had a great time moving around leisurely while enjoying the scenery to reach my destination. When I go to Hawaii, I mainly rely on the trolley for transportation, so I use it every time.

目的地まで色んなところを回るため、景色を見ながらのんびり移動でき、楽しかったです。
ハワイに行く時はトロリー移動が主なので毎回お世話になっています。

I signed up with my grandparents in their 70s. One great point was that the admission fee for Diamond Head was included. It took about 20 minutes to get from the hotel to the Diamond Head parking lot, and it took about an hour to hike up and around 30 minutes to come back down, giving us plenty of time to look at souvenirs. We also enjoyed the driver explaining the sightseeing spots during the ride!

70代の祖父母と申し込みました。
ダイヤモンドヘッドの入場料込みなのも良い点でした。ホテルからダイヤモンドヘッドの駐車場まで20分程度で到着し、行きは1時間程度、帰りは30分程度で下山することができ、お土産を見る時間も十分ありました。
車中では、ドライバーの方が観光スポットの説明をしてくれたのも楽しめました！

Yet again another excellent tour from VELTRA and Operators. Bus driver Tommy was funny and more importantly on time, he gave us all the information we needed. We climbed at 9am and did it in 20mins as we wanted a workout. Spent some time at the top, taking in the views. Made our way down slowly, sat under the trees in the park and waited to be collected by Tommy. All done by 1130am. Perfect!

I was very satisfied running through the town of Honolulu and along the coast while feeling the breeze! I will definitely sign up again when I come to Hawaii!

ホノルルの町中と海沿いなど風を感じながら走れ非常に満足できました！また、ハワイに来る際にはぜひ申し込みいたします！

The Viking was a bit tiring, but it was worth the climb! The view was spectacular. The guide was also very kind. I'm glad I participated.

バイキングは少し疲れましたが
登る価値あり！
絶景です。
ガイドさんもとても親切でした。
参加して良かったです。

The warm malasadas absolutely hit the spot after the intense climb!

This tour was the perfect way to start the day in Oahu. Getting picked up early was great to get to reach Diamond Head in time for sunrise views, absolutely worth the early wake-up.

I was able to see beautiful scenery, and it was great that I could take photos along the way. This is my second time on this line, and I would like to ride it again!

綺麗な景色を見ることができ、途中写真撮影もさせていただけ良かったです。
このラインは二度目ですが、また乗車したいと思います！

You can efficiently spend your day starting with the sunrise at Diamond Head. Also, the view of Honolulu from Diamond Head is amazing. If you're in Honolulu, be sure to participate!

ダイヤモンドヘッドの朝日から効率よく１日が過ごせます。
また、ダイヤモンドヘッドから見るホノルルは最高です。ホノルルに来たのなら是非参加してください

I was glad that there were many buses. I think the interval between the next bus was just right. Be careful as it shakes quite a bit inside the trolley.

バスの本数が多いめでよかったです。次のバスの時間もちょうど良い間隔だったと思います。トロリー内は結構揺れるので注意です。

They provided polite assistance regarding the hotel shuttle and how to ride a Segway. The staff member in charge was a Japanese person raised in Hawaii, so there was no language barrier, which made it easy to enjoy. My wife was able to ride right away, and the hour and a half went by in no time. It was truly fun! If I have the chance, I would like to ride a Segway again next time.

ホテルの送迎やセグウェイの乗り方について丁寧に対応して頂きました。担当のお兄さんはハワイ育ちの日本人、言葉の壁がなく安心して楽しめました。家内も直ぐに乗れるようになって1時間半はあっ言うまでした。　実に面白い！
チャンスがあれば次回もセグウェイに乗ってみたいです。

I'm a little worried if I can make it to the top when looking up from below.
On the well-maintained hiking trail, I arrived at the summit before I knew it.
The weather was perfect, and the view was amazing.

下から見上げるとあの上までたどり着けるかちょっと心配
整備された登山道で、あれよあれやで頂上に到着
天気も最高、見渡す風景も最高でした

LeaLea Trolley - Complete Coverage of All Routes

The East Oahu Scenic Line offered thrilling views that I thoroughly enjoyed. This time, I rode it four times. The color of the ocean changes depending on the time of day. No matter how many times I ride, the scenery never gets boring. It seems that the first morning trip tends to be crowded.

東オアフ絶景・ラインは、スリル満点で絶景を楽しめました。今回は、4回乗りました。
時間帯により違う海色が見えます。
何度乗っても飽きない景気でした。
朝一便目は混み合うみたいです。

Mathew the Shuttle driver was great, provided us with lots of information and recommendations.

They came to pick me up earlier than scheduled. After signing some documents, we moved to a few other pickup locations and then headed to Diamond Head. Once everyone gathered, the guide started. I only understood about half of what was said, but it seemed like most of it was jokes. Everyone except me seemed to be native English speakers. However, it was no problem at all if you couldn't speak. The entrance fee and reservation for Diamond Head were handled by Veltra, so you can get in without doing anything. I was dropped off at the entrance of Diamond Head around 8:40, received a bottle of water, and was told to be back by 10:30.

The hike to Diamond Head takes about 30 to 40 minutes one way. There are many bumpy areas and stairs, so I recommend wearing sneakers. It can be quite windy and relatively cold at the top, so having a light jacket might be a good idea.

After coming down, I relaxed on a bench and looked at souvenirs. I was a bit anxious when the return pickup didn't arrive on time, but I thought, "This is America, so it’s probably normal." You also receive water on the way back, which you can decline if you don't want it. The drop-off location can be either the pickup spot or your hotel if it's nearby.

I gave a $10 bill as a tip, which seemed to be the average amount based on what I saw from other participants. I joined as a solo male traveler, but I wasn't singled out or anything; it was a straightforward and nice tour. If you can understand some English, this option is cheaper than a Japanese guide with tips included, so I think it's sufficient. For those who can use Lealea, it's easy to go that way. If you take The Bus, you get dropped off in front of the tunnel, so there's quite a bit of walking, but it's cheaper.

予定の時間よりも早く迎えに来てくれました。書類にサインして、他のピックアップ場所へ何箇所か移動して、ダイヤモンドヘッドへ。全員集合すると、ガイドが始まります。半分くらいしかわかりませんでしたが、ジョークが大半だったような気がします。私以外は英語ネイティブっぽかったです。でも喋れなくても全く問題なしです。ダイヤモンドヘッドの入場料や予約はベルトラがしてくれますので、何もしなくても入れます。8:40くらいにダイヤモンドヘッドの入り口で降ろされて、お水渡されて、帰りは10:30にココ！と言われました。
ダイヤモンドヘッドへのハイキングは片道だいたい30〜40分くらい。ガタガタのところや階段も多いので、スニーカーをおすすめします。上の方は風がとても強くて、割と寒いので、薄い上着あるといいかもしれないです。
降りてきてからは、ベンチに座ってのんびりしたり、お土産みたりしていました。
帰りは時間通りに迎えが来ず、少し不安でしたが、アメリカなのでそんなもんだろうと。
帰りも水を渡されます。要らなければ断れます。降ろす場所はピックアップ場所か、泊まってるホテルが近ければ送ってくれます。
チップは余っていた10ドル札を渡しました。他の参加者を見ててもそのくらいが平均かなと思います。
男1人で参加でしたが、特にいじられることもなく、さっぱりしていて、いいツアーだと思いました。
多少英語が聞き取れれば、日本語ガイドチップ入りよりも安いので、こちらで十分だと思います。
レアレア利用できる人はそれで行くのが楽です。ザ・バスで行くと、トンネルの前で降りるので割と歩きますが、安いです。

I felt that a trolley is absolutely necessary for a stay in Honolulu. The LeaLea Trolley has many routes, and the courses are set up with tourists in mind, making it very fulfilling. Just riding it allows you to feel the essence of Hawaii, and the cost performance was great.

ホノルル滞在にトロリーは絶対必要だと感じました。LeaLeaトロリーは路線数も多いし、観光客目線でコースも設定されており、充実した内容でした。乗ってるだけで、ハワイを感じれるコスパもグッドでした。

This is our third trips to Hawaii but is the first time to have a chance to see other beautiful beaches in Oahu in addition to the well known Waikiki beach. The hike in the Diamond Head was manageable but the view from the top was magnificent. With the driver John’s guide, we had the most spectacular experience in Oahu.
