GORGEOUS HIKE up to the top of Diamond Head - AMAAAAAAAZING pre dawn hike up Diamond Head! Jonah was FABULOUS: good information and timed our arrival PERFECTLY: we were at the gate at 5:57am (opened at 6) and I was able to be at the summit for sunrise. KEEP IN MIND, this trail is a strong moderate if you start out super early in the dark to catch the sunrise, an average moderate in daylight. DEF prepare for wind at the top!

Diamond Head sunrise tour - We did the Diamond Head sunrise hike, and it was absolutely worth it. Starting in the dark was a little nerve-racking, and we needed flashlights for part of the hike. I was definitely out of breath halfway up since we are not hikers, but taking our time helped. The reward at the top was incredible—the sunrise was beautiful and the views were unforgettable. We were so glad we pushed ourselves to do it. Finishing the hike with fresh pineapple juice at the bottom was the perfect ending. Even if you’re not an experienced hiker, I highly recommend the sunrise hike. It’s challenging but doable, and such a memorable experience.

Easy way to do the sunrise hike up Diamond Head. - Easy, convenient way to do the sunrise hike up Diamond Head. Driver was on time and very friendly. This is basically a van shuttle service that handles the reservations necessary for taking the hike. No need to worry about driving, parking or getting to the park on time. Once you get to the park you are on your own to hike the crowded trail. Our driver picked us up 2 hours later. All worked out great. Sunrise was amazing.

This hike is definitely a... - This hike is definitely a must-do, and I highly recommend getting there for sunrise. Jonah was a wealth of information during the ride, from history to best spots to eat. Once dropped off at the entrance, you're on your own for the actual hike, but there are always tons of people and the trail is well marked. They also provided flashlights which was KEY. Im not a big outdoor enthusiast but id consider it a moderate hike, with stunning views along the way. Highly recommend!!!

Get your return pick up clarified. - Slightly challenging to walk unknown trail in the dark. Our flashlight wasn't helpful . The trail isn't a gentle walk quite herd for me and my abilities. But the view was fantastic. Very crowded at the lookout so expect to wait for your photo opportunity. The return walk was much easier but still not a gentle walk. Make sure you get the return time clarified. We weren't specifically told and Unfortunately left our driver behind in getting his next group. So remember the 3 hours is door to door not at the crater. We actually did make it back to our hotel in exactly 3 hours.
