Great trip!
We were picked up at the Hyatt by Jason and Isaac. We had a nice trip to the waterfall and back, then ate lunch at a small park overlooking all of Honolulu. It was great!

Ask for an english speaking tour if english is your first language. Hike is Beautiful !
Very beautiful! Very muddy!! The guide was very kind. The only problem: 4 english speakers, 11 Japanese speakers. English speakers including myself felt very left out alot of the time. I feel like we got left out of alot of the tour guide insights as he often drifted immediately over to the Japanese language. A bit uncomfortable. Again, the hike was lovely and the sandwhich was delicious.

Going up the mountain going up the mountain down came the rain
Just keep in mind the mountain is unpredictable where the proper shoes if it’s raining by your poncho and make sure you’re up for a longhike of that heel. There’s a beautiful waterfall at the top. Definitely recommend if you hike or if you’re not an experience hiker that’s fine high blood you might not want to go. Definitely a good time.

Why this scores 75
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Manoa Waterfall Hike with Waikiki Pickup & Healthy Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Oahu.
How much does Manoa Waterfall Hike with Waikiki Pickup & Healthy Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $107 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Oahu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Manoa Waterfall Hike with Waikiki Pickup & Healthy Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Oahu is not rushed.
Is Manoa Waterfall Hike with Waikiki Pickup & Healthy Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 204 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Oahu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Manoa Waterfall Hike with Waikiki Pickup & Healthy Lunch?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Manoa Waterfall Hike with Waikiki Pickup & Healthy Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Manoa Waterfall Hike with Waikiki Pickup & Healthy Lunch?
+
Around 71 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Oahu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Oahu and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Manoa Waterfall Hike with Waikiki Pickup & Healthy Lunch start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Oahu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Oahu?
+
On Outty we rank every Oahu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Oahu: Full or Half Day Grand Circle Island Tour, Oahu Small-Group Circle Island Tour with Turtle Snorkeling, Pearl Harbor Remembered Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Oahu?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Oahu?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
