Description

The rainforests of Oahu are some of the most vibrant in the world, home to countless endemic animals and plants and providing a unique visual beauty that is impossible to see anywhere else. Hike out to see this natural jungle and the waterfalls that cut their way down from the rocky hills and cliffs that can be found everywhere here.

Our tour begins with a complimentary pickup from wherever you stay in Waikiki. From there, your driver will take you into the valley, providing you with bug spray and bottled water for your 2-mile trip into the dripping Jurassic jungles of Manoa.

Hike for roughly 45 minutes, and you will come to a 150-ft. waterfall, where you may want to take photos and enjoy the view for a moment before making the trek back.

Even long after this journey is complete and you have made your way home, you will carry with you the memories, and pictures if you take them, of your time hiking through the natural splendor of Oahu. In your time with us, we will ensure you get the most out of this time, and have the best possible experience to remember for the rest of your life.
