Fun hike!
Great hike! Bring lots of water and pace yourself. Our driver, Matthew, was friendly, funny, and knowledgeable. Local pickup and transport to Diamond Head and he even provided water when he picked us up after the hike. Great experience!

We loved the crater and the views.
We loved the crater and the views. Go early though. If you forget reservations, you can scan a QR code at the bus stop inside the crater. The people attending the bus stop were very friendly and helpful.
