Diamond Head Crater Hiking Tour with Reserved Tickets & Shuttle from Waikiki

Great & affordable shuttle to Diamond Head

Reviewed by: mcavalheiro, 2018/06/05

Great & affordable shuttle to Diamond Head! The shuttle is very clean, comfortable and reliable.We were picked-up on time, the driver gave us instructions, a map and a bottle of water. The great thing about this tour is that you can walk at your own pace. The hike itself is easy, however towards the end there are some stairs. Walking through a lava tube was really cool. During the hike there are many lookout places with beautiful views of Oahu's south shore. You can see Waikiki, the mountains, downtown Honolulu & Koko Head from a distance and taking a lot of pictures. It was a great way to start my day. Thank you Kaimana Tours for such a great service and for taking me to one of Honolulu's top attractions, it's not everyday that you can tell your friends that your hiked am ancient volcano. I love Hawaii =)

Diamond Head Crater Hiking Tour with Reserved Tickets & Shuttle from Waikiki

Family fun!!...at Diamond Head!

Reviewed by: Ms. Ems, 2018/06/05

I decided to take my entire family on a hike just to experience it and since we did not have a car rental planned, we decided to book a shuttle with Kaimana Tours! I was even more excited that they allowed us to bring my toddler (2 years old) as a lap child as long as we have a baby carrier, free of charge!

We were picked up by van on time directly from our hotel. The driver was very nice and friendly! The hike to the top was not too bad at all, even my girls enjoyed it (ages 8 & 10). Most of us are beginner hikers and the best part, the view of Waikiki was just breathtaking! I would definitely book Kaimana Tours again next time we visit! maybe go to Manoa Falls or Makapuu Point next time!! I will for sure recommend this to family and friends!

Manoa Falls Guided Hiking Adventure [Open 2022]

Our favorite excursion this trip!

Reviewed by: MegL, 2018/05/29

This was a great morning! The hike was mostly very easy, a few slippery parts, and a few muddy parts. It was mostly shaded, and through some extremely beautiful parts of the forest. I strongly recommend this trip! You could do it on your own, the trail is well-marked, but the guide added a lot of great information to it. Wear a little bug spray, bring some old comfortable shoes, and enjoy.

Wao experience

Reviewed by: Juan, 2018/03/20

What an incredible experience!!!!!

Dianne was incredible, she has been one of the best guides we ever had, she run at our pace, stopping to take amazing photos of the surroundings.

Also she guided us to this amazing streches, so we wouldn´t get injured.

The views alone where amazing, fully recommended for anyone who likes doing some excersise in the morning in the nature.

We recommend this tour and Dianne all the way.

Next time in Oahu we will sure take another running tour.

Diamond Head Self Guided Hike

Reviewed by: Shannon, 2018/02/21

Easy and no hassle transport from Waikiki to Diamond Head. On time pick up, drops off at the visitors centre so you don’t have to walk from the bus stop. Good banter and information given by driver. Made the experience more enjoyable having a quick and convenient way to get to and from the hike location.

North Shore Hiking Tours from Haleiwa with Expert Local Guide & Lunch

Awesome trip

Reviewed by: Totti, 2018/01/04

Really fun riding the military truck and the hike was awesome. Little challenging for people who aren’t used to hiking. This hike is different because it is full of muds and slippery areas. Also you have to cross the 4 streams. Super fun but not recommended for families with kids.

Hawaiian Beauty Hiking Shuttle: Diamond Head & Manoa Falls Jurassic Rainforest

Diamond head and mania falls

Reviewed by: Rose, 2017/11/13

My two teenage girls and myself , a 53 year old woman did this excursion. It was a great day. The tour company was very informative. I would advise to do the morning trip to diamond head that we did. Pick up was 6:15am. Diamond in the morning was perfect. If we had done in the afternoon would have been really hot. We we arrived at manoa falls the company gave us walking sticks and bug spray to apply. It was really needed. I'm sure we would have had a lot of bug bites. The falls were beautiful. The rain forest was amazing

Great ride!

Reviewed by: Hutch71, 2017/11/11

Our driver arrived on time (to the minute) to our hotel pick up point. He was cordial and helped with the seat belt shoulder strap (due to passengers need to ingress the rear set of seats). He dropped us off and picked us up as planned. We had a very nice hike up to the lookout station and WWII bunkers on Diamond Head. The view was absolutely worth the trip! Veltra made the trip that much more enjoyable.

Reviewed by: Carmen Aponte , 2017/10/20

I really enjoyed this fun filled active day! Our tour guide, Terry, was so knowledgeable as he described the botany in the Rain Forest. He was easy going and entertaining. He took me to where the sea turtles were swimming and I enjoyed it immensely when a turtle came alongside of me and we swam together as she took 3 big gulps of air before diving down. What an honor to have experienced this beautiful living being! A super highlight of my entire Hawaiian trip!! Thank you Terry!

It was a little harder than I expected but the hike was great! Very knowledgeable guide (Jim) and beautiful rainforest. Although we didn't encounter any rain it is suggested you bring a raincoat or poncho. There were some slippery spots so be sure to where appropriate shoes. Expect to come home muddy but well worth it! Jim was awesome. If I ever come back and do that hike again I will definitely request his route!

オアフ島 熱帯雨林ハイキング 初心者~中級者向け <英語ガイド>

2度目の参加!

Reviewed by: かけさん, 2017/09/06

 昨年、ショッピングに行く家族と別行動で1人でこのツアーに参加したのですが、今回は家族も行くと言うので、2年連続で参加しました。
 ツアーガイドはERIKAさんと言う女性、同行者はオーストラリアから来た若いカップルと、現地で合流して来たLA在住の老夫婦でした。日本語ガイドではないので、ある程度の英語力は必要ですが、ツアーでの注意点とか植物に関する説明などは丁寧にゆっくり喋ってくれるので、ヒアリングが苦手でもそんなに気にしなくていいかもしれません。
 行程はそんなにハードではありませんが、直前に雨が降ったようで(途中も少し降られた)、滑りやすく、神経を使いました。そのせいか、老夫婦のペースが上がらず、予定より時間がかかってしまった為、次の予定(オーストラリアのカップルは引き続きMTBツアーに参加するようでした)に間に合わなくなったようで、帰りはガイドが手配したタクシーで帰ると言う変則的なスケジュールになりました(もちろん費用はツアー持ちでした)。
 山に入ると湿度も高く、蒸し暑いので、涼しい格好の方がいいですが、蚊もいるし、木の枝や切り株などで怪我をするのを防ぐ為にも、長袖と長いパンツ、足元はしっかりした運動靴で参加する事をお勧めします(ただし、靴はドロドロに汚れます)。
 前回に引き続き、野生(移入種ですが)のマダラヤドクガエルも見られたし、ホノルルとは全く違うオアフ島の一面を楽しめるので、お勧め出来るアクティビティーだと思いますよ。

  • 今回は家族で

  • 野生のヤドクガエル!

新たな魅力発見!

Reviewed by: Hiroko, 2017/08/29

ハワイで初めてのハイキング、思っていた以上に素晴らしい体験でした。入口前に到着すると、水、スナックを貰い、虫除けを掛けたり準備します。ウエストポーチのレンタルもあります。参加者は私以外に7名の外国人。ガイドももちろん英語オンリー、英語が全く出来ないと辛いかも。ジャングル自体は、最初は楽チンですが、後半思っていたより傾斜があったり、泥濘もあり、しっかり良い汗をかきました。目的地で食べたバナナの美味しかったこと!ツアー自体は最高だったのですが、ピックアップタイム30分過ぎても迎えが来ず、さすがに電話。ガイドに直接繋がり、私への案内と何故か違う場所に行ったとのこと。10分程で迎えが来ましたが、かなり暑い最中に待っていたのでそれが辛かったです。しかし、ツアーは満足です!オススメです。

Honolulu Downhill Bike Tour, Secret Waterfall Hike & Waikiki Snorkel Sail Combo

Awesome Adventure!!!!

Reviewed by: Brian, 2017/07/16

This tour was worth every penny on its own, but our guide ELON made it even better!

We were picked up on time and taken up into the hills of Manoa Valley and went on a hike in the rain forest all the way to the waterfall and back. Hike was not super difficult, but definitely wear shoes (no flip flops).

Next part of the tour was lunch up on Mt Tantalus and then a 30 minute downhill bike ride down the mountain. We stopped halfway down for a pretty nice photo op. The views were amazing! Must point out that the staff made sure we were very safe on the downhill bike ride.

Once we got to the bottom, we were take to the marina, where we boarded a catamaran and went out to the Pacific and snorkelled at the "turtle cleaning station" for about an hour. We saw about 4 or 5 turtles and a ton of fish. Snorkel boat also had sodas and snacks.

We were returned to our hotel around 5pm after a full day adventure.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and HUGE thank you to Elon!!!!!!

Manoa Falls Self Guided Hike

Reviewed by: Benita Meeks, 2017/07/01

I am so glad we decided to take this hike through Veltra tours, we were provided with walking sticks (which you will definitely need), water and insect repellent. I am a 60 years young female with lower back arthritis, my girlfriend is 72 years young and we both survived and enjoyed it.. The scenery along the hike is beautiful. You should not wear your very nice gym shoes due to some mud and rocks along the way. Getting to the top (end of hike) seems to never come quick enough, but by the end of the hike when you see how beautiful the waterfall is, it becomes well worth it.

Great hike in the rain. It was a great time up the mountain to view the waterfalls. It was a little wet but well worth it in the end. We saw lots of beautiful mountains and rainforests. It was wet on top but the rain had stopped by the time we got to the bottom. Would do it again if I ever had the opportunity to do so. Well worth it.

Good Morning Hikes

Reviewed by: -PAUL-, 2017/05/28

This is my second time going up Diamond Head Crater, but first time doing it in the morning. There is a difference from morning hike up to afternoon hike up. Enjoy the rewarding view each time. This time I caught a shot of a full rainbow across the ocean. A perspective to see it right from the summit.
Manoa falls was interesting hike, it rained most of the hike; which made it better! Did realize until I looked at the picture I took from the scene of Jurassic Park and then looking at the puddles, envisioning a T-Rex foot, this was that trail.
