Our driver was so patient, funny and pleasant. He explained a lot to us about the history of diamond head and oh the malasadas were great. Loved the little certificate we got for making it to the top haha. Overall our experience was awesome. Will definitely be booking some other activities with this company if I come visit again.

Great trip!

Terri_E, Mar 2025
It was a really good trip, just lots of people going up at the 5:00AM time to see the sunrise. Not their fault at all, just a little crowded at the top.

What a view

Great hike with an awesome view. Malasadas were delicious. Hike was doable for all ages and fitness levels. Plenty of time to go at your own pace if you wanted to. If you want a challenge do the stairway on the way up, it’s pretty cool, and go down the scenic/easier side for a good view. Definitely worth doing the sunrise option. It still had good light starting at 6am. And it’s much cooler. And we were back at our hotel by 8am and had the rest of the day to explore.

Adventurous experience

What an amazing hike! The tour had mostly Japanese people in it. My boyfriend and I were the only English speaking couple but it was still ok. You do the hike alone no tour guide with you. One thing I didn’t like is the tour guide didn’t tell us what time we had to be back so we almost missed the bus back. The malasadas were a great treat after!

Great sunrise tour!

Great trip! Very well organized. Booked the tour with malasadas. They were still slightly warm and very good. All staff were friendly. Glad we booked this tour. I would recommend the sunrise tour as it gets hot.

Worth getting up early for

This is such a fab idea. Getting up earlier to miss the crowds and see the beautiful sunrise. It was well organised and the drivers were professional and friendly.

The View!!!

My niece made it all the way to the top, and even though I couldn’t do the last fight of steps, the view was still spectacular. Early morning much less crowded. Our malasada were heavenly!

ダイヤモンドヘッド

SHIHSHIAN_H, Oct 2024
日本語対応可能なスタッフが多く駐在していて、安心してダイヤモンドヘッドを登れた。送迎ありの利用で戻ってくる時間が指定されてたので、トイレ行って急いで登って、写真はちょい急ぎ気味で撮って下山。 (日の出取れたこと、ダイヤモンドヘッドに登れたことがもう大満足なので、問題ないです!気になる方のために一応) スポットスポットでゆっくり撮りたい方には不向きかも、、 ご参加までに!!
