Hike Diamond Head’s volcanic trail to panoramic island views, with park entry, water, and round-trip transfers from Honolulu.

About this tour

Hike to the summit of Oʻahu’s iconic Diamond Head crater for sweeping views of Waikīkī, Honolulu, and the Pacific Ocean. This Honolulu Diamond Head hike pairs a memorable volcanic trail with convenient round-trip transfers, so you can focus on the climb and the scenery.

From the trailhead, follow paved and uneven paths past lava rock and dryland plants, then tackle the steeper switchbacks. Continue through a short, dimly lit tunnel and climb 74 concrete steps to a spiral staircase. At the top, pass through a historic WWII observation bunker before taking the final steps to the summit lookout. The trail description estimates about 2 hours for the round trip, while the listed tour duration is 3 hours.

Spend time at the summit admiring the coastline, Koʻolau Mountain Range, lighthouse, and surfers below. A water bottle and park entry ticket are included, and live guiding is available in English and Spanish. Choose this Honolulu Diamond Head hike for a rewarding outdoor outing with transport arranged. Bring comfortable shoes, sunscreen, and a hat, and get ready to see Oʻahu from above.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. GetYourGuide rates it 3.19 from 13 reviews. We place that rating among all GetYourGuide ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Oahu
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.3.
