Hike along the slopes of an extinct volcano on the island of Oahu, and discover the lush, tropical rainforest of Mt. Tantalus. With your expert, naturalist tour guide, you’ll find out more of what makes the island so special.

Complete with round trip transportation from your Waikiki Beach hotel, you’ll journey from the beach to the slopes of the Ko’olau Mountain Range. High above the coastline, your trail starts and you’re quickly taken into the brush and trees, where endemic plants grow wild and the natural beauty of Oahu steals the show. Along the trail, a number of brightly colored wild flowers can be seen, and your expert tour guide knows all about these treasures of the island. As you can imagine, the picture opportunities are near endless, and the views from the trail are breathtaking.

Hike above the valleys that sit between the mountain ridges and have an unparalleled view of many of the island’s top-sites. From a number of lookout points, Pearl Harbor, Waikiki Beach, Downtown Honolulu, and even the Windward towns of Kailua and Kaneohe provide panoramic views that only this hike trail can offer. The sites, beauty, and scenery will astound and amaze you.

With limited space and very limited hike days, you will not want to miss out on this hiking adventure. Be sure to reserve your spots with our expert, naturalist guide today. Booking early ensures that you will be among the hikers to discover the beauty and diversity of Oahu’s extinct volcano.
