海外では後になって森の印象が残るので、ハワイでも行ってみたくて一人参加しました。ほかの日本語版ツアーは時間が合わず、英語版のこちらに一人参加になりました。長靴を全員に貸してくれました。何インチといわれ8と答えジャスト(私は24cm)すこし大きめでいいみたい。交換もききました。ぬかるみもあったけど、火山の硬い岩のうえの渓流なので、歩くのは簡単でした。数回小川をまたいだけど、こどものころを思い出し水の中に足を突っ込んでちゃぷちゃぷと。長靴なので平気。最後にマノウの滝で記念撮影でした。英語だけどガイドさんが日本語もじょうずでした。いっしょのオージーのグループはぬかるみでおしりがどろだらけでした。なんでかなあ?たぶん、みんな普通はだいじょうぶ。楽しかったですよ。コーヒーの森のかおりも経験できました。

This is a nice little hike that took about 4 hours from pick up to drop off. Our tour guide was very nice, informative and helpful (bug spray and walking sticks). You start with a pick up in a van at your hotel location, then you travel up into the hills and park. From there you hike into the lush beautiful forest and at the end come to a nice little waterfall. During this whole time there the guide is educating you on history of the islands and the area.
Things to consider: This is an open trail so you will not be alone. Bring bug spray! Wear appropriate shoes, pants and gear. Bring a small umbrella or poncho.
Overall I would recommend.

当日は大体15人ぐらいのグループで、日本人は私たちだけでした。
場所は通常マノアフォールハイキングに行く入口よりかなり手前からマノアに入ります。ツアーの体験談に軍隊の訓練のように黙々と歩くと書いてあったので、少し心配でしたが、実際はツアーの参加者のペースに合わせて無理なく進み、所々でガイドさんがとても丁寧にハワイの自然や動物について説明してくれて本当に楽しかったです☆☆
また、小川の近くを歩いて滝まで行くので、水の音が心地よく、鳥や風の音にも癒されました。
マノアフォールハイキングとは違うコースで、ゴールの滝も違いますし、帰り道は竹林を戻りました。ぬかるんでいる所や、川を渡ったりするので、始めに長靴を借りる事をオススメします。少し冒険みたいな感じですごく楽しかったです!長靴だと水や泥も気にせずどんどん進めます。
ツアーは日本人向けではなく、ガイドさんも日本語は話せないので、ある程度英語が出来たほうが楽しめるとは思いますが、私有地を行くハイキングで、マノアの通常のコースとは違い自分では行けないコースなので、ハワイの自然が大好きという方には是非オススメしたいです。本当に癒されます、そしてすごく楽しい!
ツアーの参加者と協力しながら登ると思うので、いろんな方とコミュニケーションが出来て楽しいですよ!
次回もまた是非参加したいです♪

Different from other tours, on this one there is no rush! We had time to enjoy each location and relax.
After a short hike we get to a waterfall! It's an easy hike but the location is absolutely beautiful, a lot of movies and tv shows were filmed on that location.
At Waimanalo Beach we spent some time at a nice private beach house. The scenery is just wonderful! We had time to relax and enjoy the beach. At the house they have kayaks, stand up paddle board and boogie boards available.
For lunch we had a delicious hawaiian style meal.
Snorkeling on Hanauma Bay in the afternoon was amazing! It's one of the most beautiful places in the island.
I would definitely recommend this tour to everyone!

What an amazing outdoor experience! This hike is a must do if you'd like to get a better understanding of the hidden nature Hawaii has to offer. Our guides, Keola and Marcella, shared a wealth of knowledge and gave us an unforgettable and valuable tour of the forested region of Oahu. Some parts of the trail are strenuous, so be prepared with some good hiking shoes/boots and plenty of water. We also had the opportunity to taste the fruit the trail had to offer, simply delicious. I highly recommend trying this hike if you plan on visiting the North Shore.

If you love nature and exercise, this is one of the activities that you cannot miss in Oahu. Our guide, Mike, is very friendly and know where to stop for a nice photo shot. Be aware the hike may be very muddy. Good that there's a hose for you to hose down mud & dirt at the end of the hike. It's better to wear shorts for the hike as it's no fun to wear a pair of soaking wet long pants after hosing down the mud. I would recommend this hiking tour to my friends.

This was a very very fun day. We got married on Thursday and spent Saturday on this tour and couldn't have asked for a better day. The guides were very knowledgeable and interested in our taking away a lot from the experience.
A word about the exertion level, the hiking is the most strenuous part of the day, but done at a pace that almost anyone can easily match. We are in our 50's and in good shape for our age and never felt pushed or overly challenged. That said, you'll know at the end of the day you had done more work than sucking down cocktails at the hotel pool.
Just do it.

I didn't know what to expect when I booked this tour since I was going solo. The staff is very friendly and on time. The first part of the tour is the hike up the Manoa valley 5 miles south of Waikiki. Highly recommended to wear long sleeves and pants if you don't like mosquitoe bites. The hike itself is fairly easy. Very doable for any age. The trip to the waterfalls itself is more enjoyable than when you get there.
The second part of the tour is the 5 mike downhill bike ride. I know, it sounds more daunting than it is. I haven't bike for almost 20 years but got the hang of it right away. You won't really need to pedal much as it is mostly downhill, rather you will need to use your brakes a lot. Fantastic view of downtown Waikiki and Diamond head crater.
Overall, I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for some adventure outside of the beach. Great experience!!!

This tour would have gotten 5 stars but for the tour guide whom we thought was not very good.
It's a 6 hour tour, comprising a hike through the jungle to Manoa Falls, and a bike down the Tantalus road with the spectacular views of Honolulu.
Pickup: was on time and easy in a minibus.
Boots: We had to prebook boots to trek the muddy trail, I booked boots from Australia (different size to US) and asked co. to check my sizings. Mattias, the guide, threw boots off car roof and random people took them to try. He didn't know whos boots were whos. Two of my family's boots were split letting water and mud in, defeating the purpose. My boots were taken by someone else, and I was left with too small boots. Mattias said I didn't book 'womens' size. ?? huh??and was unconcerned with my problem.
Trail: We were given water and trail mix, and a waist bag, and insect spray, which I thought was great. The trail was on private land and The jungle walk was lovely. It was extremely muddy, but had

The guy at the gate was screaming at everyone bec they have to pay for the entrance fee. If I didn't tell him i got the package deal from this webstie he would have double charged me. They need to come-up with another system collecting entrance fees.

Book this tour - if you love the outdoors and want a 'real experience' you will not be disappointed.
The bike ride is a great way to see the sights and is very relaxing. The bikes are very easy to ride and is mostly downhill.
The Hike allows you to get out of the concrete jungle and commercial centre of Waikiki, but be warned this is not a gentle 'stroll' this is a decent bush walk around 2 hrs, so make sure you read the recommended 'what to wear' list that is on the voucher. You will walk through a real rain forest and learn about the unique forest of Oahu along the way, so don't let a little mud scare you.
The boat ride and snorkel is a magical way to end an action packed day. Gear is provided. It was refreshing that the boat was not packed to capacity, and again was a 'real' experience. We swam with turtles and then sailed back to the marina, this was also a great way to see Waikiki from the water.
This was a very refreshing tour and a highlight of our trip. It was gre

英語ツアーということで、少しドキドキしながら参加しましたが、日本人の女性の方が2人と、あとは英語圏の方8人くらいで、英語ができないなりにもコミュニケーションをとりつつ楽しくトレッキングできました。
マノア近くの竹林的なところを黙々と登っていくのですが、マノア周辺はオアフの中でも降水量が多いところなので、地面はぬかるんでいるところが多く、途中小川も渡ったりするので、長靴は絶対借りたほうがいいと思います。ほぼ100%英語のツアーなので、本当にトレッキングが好きで、ダイヤモンドヘッドでは物足りない!!という方にはお勧めですが、英語の不安のある方はちょっと参加するのに勇気がいるような気がします。
あと、集合時間に30分くらい遅れてくるのも、英語ツアーならではなのかなぁと思いました。それくらい寛大さがないと、最初イライラするかもしれませんね
