Diamond Head hiking memories made
Great experience with the ride to and from the hotel in Waikiki & ticket to hike Diamond Head. Our driver Matthew was very kind, knowledgable & friendly. Would recommend this option to anyone looking to hike Diamond Head. Thanks again
Great tour, lots of stops!
Great tour guide, very friendly and informative. Guide for snorkeling was very patient, gave detailed instructions and helped in the water. Swam with lots of turtles and plenty of time to experience each stop.
Diamond Head Crater Tour
This is as beautiful as it looks on the posters and of course very accomplishing but what it doesn’t show you is the rough bumpy terrain, the tiny stair cases and the tunnel you have to crawl through near the top. If you’re claustrophobic, be aware. There are no elevators, cable cars or aids to get you up or down, it’s your legs and feet only. We loved it and had a great time getting to the top and back down but a lot of people were struggling. It’s a hike! Be ready to hike! Kudos to the company Kaimana for ringing the day before and confirming details for pick up location and booking times.
Great hike, great views, good shuttle ride
So great, rewarding climb, beautiful views. Shuttle drive was easy and cost effective for a solo hike, and the timing was perfect.
It was a bit strenuous...
It was a bit strenuous getting there, but even though we are no longer young we made it. The views were amazing and we'll worth the climb. The tunnel can be a little claustrophobic, and there was a wait getting to the very top because of people taking pictures, but overall was a great activity. The tour bus operator was great!
