Top 15 Honolulu Hiking Tours

1.Self guided Hike Trail to Nature Walk & Waterfall

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 283 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $79Our pick

Hike through Oahu’s rainforest to Manoa Falls, learn local plant lore, and visit a Waikiki lookout with hotel pickup for $79.

“I will definitely recommend this. With Robert as our guide, we learned a lot about the flora and fauna of Manoa, which we would not have known if we did the hike on our own. The water in the falls was not overflowing, but because we already read this in old reviews, we managed our expectations. But the hike in the rainforest is worthy of one's time. And we got a refreshing rainshower when we got to the falls. So 5 stars for Robert and the experience!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 26 reviews · 6 hours (approx.) · from $70

Review of Oahu’s Diamond Head and Makapuu Lighthouse hiking tour, with shuttle transport, practical tips, costs, timing, and fitness advice.

“The views were great. The drivers were knowledgeable about the sites and places we passed along the way. The hikes were self-guided. Our tour was broken up into two days which was good since doing both in the same day may have been challenging due to the grades involved. The Lighthouse path was paved and relatively easy uphill walk and some stairs. The Diamond Head trail was a more challenging climb with mixed surfaces including dirt and rocks, semi-dark tunnels and stairs.”
