Traveler reviews
Spectacular!
The views were spectacular once I made it to the top !!! Hard slog but just take your time and stop along the way for a breather.
Pick up on time and no...
Pick up on time and no issues with getting into the park. Driver Matthew was communicative and helpful. Diamond Head itself is interesting but really busy - you don't get much time to soak up the view as everyone is queuing for selfies... The walk is quite easy but would be hot in the middle of the day. Even though our tour went ahead as planned, I was disappointed to see on our confirmation email that if tour numbers were too low, it would be rescheduled for another day - no refunds! Not acceptable as we had other activists booked every day.
Great Hike!
Great hike going at the top to see the breathtaking view of Waikiki Honolulu Hawaii! Highly recommended đź‘Śđź‘Ť
Beautiful scenery need to...
Beautiful scenery need to be in pretty good shape. If you have knee issues would not recommend. Starts off on a path then uneven rocks then stairs then a dark tunnel then a lot of stairs. No water or bathrooms on trail. Highly recommend if dont have health issues.
Not a relax hike. Too rush.
Diamond Head and the views from the top are beautiful. However, we are given only 1.5 hours to complete the hike and to meet at meeting point after the hike. I took 45 min to reach the top without stopping, spent 15-20 mins on the peak, and quickly walked down which took 25min. I was afraid I couldn’t make it on time to catch the shuttle. I missed a few look out points. And i didn’t have enough time to read all the sign boards descriptions. It wasn’t a relax hike. I think we should be given 2 hours to enjoy the hike. Especially the elders and slower walkers who probably would need more time (I am pretty much a fast walker). The driver kept saying he needed to pick up and drop off people from 8 hotels. But that is not our problem. Our hiking time shouldn’t be cut short because of that.
