This was a great hike. And Arlene was the best. Highly recommend this hike for a small outdoor adventure. It’s just a couple of hours and the hike was easy. We have been to Oahu several times and never knew of this beautiful place. So glad that we booked this

Great experience

Gerard_s, Apr 2024

Chris was great guide. Well knowledgeable and professional. Very energetic. Learned a lot about local plants and some customs. Tour was perfect for a couple of 60 year olds who loved to hike.

Pretty

BeckyH, Apr 2024

Super fun! Even though it rained the whole time we were there! But still beautiful to be in nature !!

Great hike but crowded

Sarah_M, Apr 2024

Our tour guide was lovely and very informative. She took tons of photos for us and was just so delightful. The hike itself was pretty crowded.

Lovely tour

Tracytiki, Mar 2024

Gorgeous Hike! Beautiful. Our tour guide was sweet, kind, helpful and cautious. She talked WAY too loud (on microphone the entire time in small van) and WAY too much. She did not breathe. It took away some of the enjoyment of the trip. She had a lot of good info just WAY too much of it. No chance to engage and ask questions without interrupting.

Great tour and hike for beginners

Paul_W, Mar 2024

Good tour enjoyed it nice photo opportunities and also a nice hike to enjoy. It’s 3.5 - 4 hrs long so plan accordingly

Beautiful scenery, not too long and too difficult depending on the season

Brian_T, Feb 2024

The hike to the waterfall, which was almost dried up but it’s a toss up, would you rather have tons of mud and a huge waterfall or a little mud and a little waterfall lol absolutely gorgeous either way. Would recommend if you don’t get to go out into the actual island much.

Excellent Guide! Wonderful Hike!

Carol_S, Jan 2024

Hema is an amazing guide! We thoroughly enjoyed the hike! We enjoyed every aspect of the trip! Thank you for having such a wonderful outing!

Waterfall hike

Rossanna_M, Dec 2023

The hike wast too hard. The guide Arlane was amazing, funny and very informative. Really enjoyed this tour hike 5/5 ⭐

Awesome waterfall hike!

Danica_G, Dec 2023

We had a great time on this hike. Our guide, Robert, was super! Very knowledgeable about the area. He taught us all about the local flora and fauna. And he helped us take great pics! We really enjoyed spending time with him. Highly recommend!!

Beautiful view. Hike was...

Ron_W, Dec 2023

Beautiful view. Hike was a bit challenging with lots of slippery stones. Otherwise great and knowledgeable leader

A nature ike worth doing

MariaDee_S, Sep 2023

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!

No lookout point so overpriced tour

Minty_B, Sep 2023

The hike was really nice but we weren’t taken to a lookout point as was advertised here. The hike ended earlier than I expected . I messaged the tour provider informing that we did not get taken to a lookout point and requested a partial refund, and they told me we did just before the hike even though we were taken straight to the fall after pick up. I felt the price was reasonable because of the lookout point but since we weren’t taken there I find this tour to be way overpriced sadly

It was great to connect...

Ifeoluwa_C, Aug 2023

It was great to connect with nature! Away from the crowds in the city . The tour guide was knowledgeable , patient and encouraged me to take my time and enjoy . Peaceful

Abner_M, Jul 2023

Very nice experience on this tour, good guide from Elaine , hike was medium , good spots to take pictures , recommended

A must see!

Carolyn_E, Jun 2023

Beautiful nature trail. A bit more challenging than expected but tour guide made me feel like I could do anything, and I did! Felt confident and accomplished! Sergay(?) was very knowledgeable and took away more information about the island than expected. 500 stars 😃

Great hike but muddy.

Nancy_B, Jun 2023

Really pretty hike; very humid. The trail was very muddy so keep that in mind when picking your shoes. Trail guide was wearing sandals - saw a lot of people with sandals. We had sneakers on which was great - but they got very muddy.

Only one waterfall but very nice tour

Anita_V, May 2023

Our tour guide was Hema with Karma tours. She called us when she was outside of our hotel so we could meet her at the corner. She was very nice and provided a great tour of a lookout point and Moana falls. Unfortunately there was only one waterfall and long hike to get there but it was really nice. It went by pretty quick and you have to watch where you walk so you can't really enjoy the surroundings but we made several stops for photo ops.

Great tour

Donald_S, May 2023

Our guide Hema was great!!! She was always helpful to take pictures of her guests along the way. Very informative!

Beautiful Nature in All Its Forms

Sheryl_K, Apr 2023

This was one of my favorite tours. The scenery was beautiful and filled with bird songs. The falls are gorgeous, but you can’t see it splash into the pond for all the people in the way. Our guide went with us and pointed out many trees & flowers. We even saw a mongoose. The only bad thing is the Parks Dept doesn’t enforce their rules to stay far from the fall’s pool. People from all over are often selfish and inconsiderate of others. It was impossible to get a picture without people in the way where they weren’t supposed to be! The hike itself was steep in 3 places and part of the trail had very loose rocks that were slippery, making the downhill more dangerous. All in all I had a great day with another family (I went solo) and our tour guide, Hema. One couple treated me like part of their family. I bought a quart of organic Hawaiian honey and a rooster print, since we’re entertained by a rooster doing a mating dance; the hen walked away.

Great adventure!

LisaR, Apr 2023

Our tour guide was amazing, very positive, and upbeat. Hemmie I recall was her name. She was a great photographer too! A beautiful woman with a wonderful personality. The whole trip was fun. She is a gem.
