All Reviews for Diamond Head Crater Shuttle

The whole thing was wonderful. They were very well organized. Time was perfect. The place & the hiking trail was smooth & everybody was behaving as a family member or friend so I didn’t feel alone at all. The team was very cooperative & friendly & kind.

Great experience! We also used the shuttle service and we’re able to look and enjoy the scenic drive while the driver told us about the areas we passed.

There are four color-coded routes, with the pink route primarily providing hotel transfers to Ala Moana Shopping Center. This time, I used the red route for downtown and the green route for Diamond Head and a local snack restaurant. The driver provided very polite travel guidance and personalized service. Although it was in English, the Hawaiian accent made it a bit difficult for Japanese speakers to understand. Please note that except for the pink route, the other routes run once an hour, with the last departure from the starting point at 3 PM.

4色のコースがあり，頻繁にあるピンクは主にアラモアナショッピングセンターへのホテル送迎です。
今回レッドでダウンタウンをグリーンでダイアモンドヘッドと地元の軽食レストランを利用しました。ドライバーが大変丁寧な旅行案内と個別の対応をしてくれました。英語ですが，ハワイアンのアクセントがあり，日本人には少し聞き取りにくかったです。
ピンク以外は1時間に1本で午後3時までに最終が出発地点を出ますので，注意してください。

Went to Hawaii for our honeymoon. We were in Oahu for 2 days at the tail end of our trip. This tour was perfect for what we wanted to accomplish on our last day. The tour lasted roughly 4 hours and we had full transportation to the hiking sites, plus entry fee for Diamond Head. We were able to see the sunrise at Diamond Head which was a once in a lifetime experience!

Definitely recommend this tour for those who want to hike solo, but need the transportation.

This adventure is perfect for lots of people. With the door to door transportation we did not have to worry about tickets or parking and the driver brought us Leonard’s famous Malasada donuts afterwards. The hike was doable for young and old and lots of picture points! I would definitely recommend it!

My husband and I did the 6am tour so we can catch the sunrise definitely recommend doing the early tour- it was amazing. I wish our tour guy would’ve provided flashlights or something it was pretty dark the for a good 30 min going up. Luckily our phones did the trick but it ate up our battery. Overall a beautiful experience

KOA picked us up and was a very enjoyable and safe driver. We had a perfect sunny morning to hike and it was absolutely gorgeous! All of us in our group that hiked are in our 60’s and was not to difficult of a journey for us. The views on the way up and down were beautiful, but the views from the top were breathtaking! One of our favorite excursions while visiting the Hawaiian Islands.

There are Red, Green, Pink, Blue, and Purple options, but due to the year-end or perhaps the impact of COVID-19, currently only Red, Pink, and Blue are available. It's a strange conversion method where instead of being valid for four consecutive days from ticket exchange, you can use four days within a one-week period. The three lines mentioned above can take you to classic tourist spots and shopping centers, so I think it's great for first-time visitors to Hawaii. The vehicle is always ventilated with the windows open, and both the driver and ticket staff were friendly and nice.

レッド・グリーン・ピンク・ブルー・パープルとありますが、年末のせいかコロナの影響か、現在使えるのはレッドとピンクとブルーのみです。不思議な換算方法で、チケット引き換えから連続4日間ではなく、1週間の期限の中で4日分使えるというシステムとのこと。上記3ラインはオーソドックスな観光地やショッピングセンターは回れるので、初ハワイの方には良いかと思います。車内は常に窓を開けて換気対策をしていますし、運転手の方やチケット担当の方はみなフレンドリーで良かったです。

After my group was picked up another couple was picked up. I was disappointed because they were picked up across the street from the condo we were staying at. My group had to take a 15 minute walk to The pick up location that they told us. We could have slept in a little bit later and had breakfast. The ride to Diamondhead was simple and quick. Once you get to the location they do you have food trucks if you want to grab food or something to drink. As we were entering we were ask for tickets. Our driver did not give us the tickets to enter the hiking trail. We called the company no one answered and we did not have the phone number to the shuttle driver. The staff at Diamondhead did not want to let us in. however after taking sympathy on as they were nice and let us in. They could have said no and we would have to have sat in front of Diamondhead for 2 1/2. If you book with this company make sure your driver gives you your blue ticket for entry into the park.

After the hike it was a madhouse because the afternoon tours were coming in and the morning tours were going out. I received a phone call and it was a new shuttle driver who was supposed to take us to our original shuttle driver because he was caught in some type of traffic. It was a tight squeeze because this new shadow was much smaller than the ones that we came in on. The drive was really nice he gave us kind of like a sightseeing tour as we were going to the drop off location. We all get out and we’re kind of just standing around waiting. He tells us that the original shuttle driver is coming (he never showed). For people decided not to continue on with the second hike. So the shuttle driver said that instead of us waiting he could take us now because it was a smaller group. This isn’t their first time doing these tour so I would have expected things to run a lot smoother. I do recommend shopping around for different tour companies.

Great tour, our guide was friendly and professional.

We had a patient driver. He was very nice. The ride was smooth too!

Talk about a workout! It was awesome and well worth it although I am still sore! The driver was punctual and hilarious! I would definitely do this tour again with this company and recommend it to anyone seeking a workout with breathtaking views!

Since I arranged my own flights and hotel, I couldn't ride on the so-called tour trolley.

However, I wanted to experience the trolley at least once, so I arranged this tour (ticket).

I thought it would be similar to a bus, but it was completely different. The Pink Line operates like a bus route that runs back and forth between Ala Moana and Waikiki, and it was convenient to use.

I rode the Green Line, Red Line, and Purple Line, but I only had a little time to get off. However, I was able to enjoy sightseeing from the window. I also enjoyed the driver's (guide's) entertaining stories.

航空券・ホテルと自己手配だったため、いわゆるツアーのトローリーに乗ることができませんでした。

ですが、一度はトローリーに乗ってみたいと思いこのツアー(チケット)を手配しました。

バスの代わり、くらいに考えていたのですが全然違いました。
ピンクラインはアラモアナ - ワイキキを往復するバスのような路線で、それはそれで便利に使えました。

グリーンライン・レッドライン・パープルラインに乗車しましたが、ほんの少しだけしか降りる時間がありませんが、車窓から十分に観光することができました。
ドライバー(ガイド)の楽しいお話も満喫できました。

We had a great driver, he was awesome, very friendly, really informative and very punctual . Was a great service and made our life easy getting to Diamond Head and back to our Hotel

Great hike! No need for a guide. Start the hike early, beautiful views.

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 =)

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!

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.

The shuttle to Diamond Head is perfectly priced and provides a great morning excursion. Diamond Head is a must see when visiting Oahu, so this inexpensive excursion fit the bill.

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.

The driver was knowledgeable - talkative - kind - and on time..
the whole experience was great

On the first day of my arrival, since I couldn't predict the time, I opted for a trolley day pass instead of a time-specific tour to head to Diamond Head. The trolley made stops for about five minutes at scenic spots, allowing me to take some photos. I got off at Kahala Mall and enjoyed dining and shopping.

入国初日は時間が読めないため、時間指定のツアーにせずトロリー1日券でダイヤモンドヘッドへ向かいました。景色のいいところでは5分くらい停車してくれたので写真も撮れました。カハラモールで降りて食事とショッピングを楽しめました

We were picked up on time by a friendly driver who explained everything we needed to know regarding our hike. He was right on with his explanation. We walked along with several others up the trails which we easy then got to some of the curves and switchbacks where the footing was a little difficult. Be sure to wear good tennis shoes or hiking boots not sandals or heels for this hike. We came to a series of steps that were steep then into a tunnel that was a few minutes long. Outside the tunnel there were 2 routes to the top. One set of steps much steeper than the other but can stop and rest along the way if needed. Once on the top the views were spectacular and well worth the climb. I'm 65 years old and have 3 stents in my hear and made this "moderate " hike with only a few stops. There are some rough areas in this hike so people with walkers, wheel chairs and buggies will not make it. We will definitely do this event next time we're in Hawaii. We did the hike up to the top, looked around for 15-20 minutes and hiked back down in 1 - 1/2 hours.

It was great that I could ride the Purple Line and go all the way to Pearl Harbor. I found out that the one-day unlimited pass actually becomes valid for two days when I received it. Unfortunately, I had already planned to be almost nowhere near Waikiki on the second day, so I wish I had known that before my trip.

パープルラインも乗れて、パールハーバーまで行けたのが良かった。
１日乗り放題が２日間乗り放題になるようで、乗り放題パスの受け渡しの時に知った。２日目にはワイキキにほぼいない予定を組んでしまったので、渡航前に知っておきたかった。

Our driver gave us history of the crater and tips about local spots as we traveled through the city. Very friendly. The hike was great. Very senic and not that taxing.

Great to have a ride there and back to our hotel and water provided. Way too much time left in the park though. Our entire group was done the hike in about an hour and had to wait another hour and a half for him to return.

It was very convenient! There were four lines available for unlimited rides, but since I didn't use them that much, it felt a bit expensive. However, I'm glad there was a trolley.

とても便利でした！
４つのラインが乗り放題でしたが、そんなに沢山は乗らなかったのでちょっと高いかなってところですね‼︎でもトロリーあってよかったです。

Come do this activity after you've been partaking a little too much on the first days of your vacation! Earlier is better due to the heat. Superb views of nearly a third of the island!

Rain excluded all views. Otherwise nice hike. Driver courteous and informative

Amazing & would highly recommend this hike! We were originally scheduled to do the Makapuu Lighthouse Trail as well, but unfortunately they closed the trail a few days before we arrived. We were notified by the tour company in plenty of time & just went on the hike to Diamond Head. We were refunded the difference & everything else went off without a hitch. We were a little confused about the pick up location, but the driver took the time to call us & guide us to the right area. Job well done guys! Mahalo!
