Hike Through Hawaii's Rainforest

Watch the video for a preview of the tour:

A quick drive away from the city of Waikiki is the forest of Manoa. Manoa is well-known for its hiking trail, Manoa Falls Trail.

This trail is accessible and appropriate for all ages. It lies in the middle of the island and is surrounded by Hawaii’s greatest nature. The end of the trail will lead you to Manoa Falls, a 150-Foot waterfall.

There may be slight rain, this trail may be wet and muddy, but the clean air, water, and natural trees make this the real nature tour.

"We loved our Manoa Falls hike! Our guide picked us up on time, was friendly and knowledgeable. The trip was a really great morning activity that was just the right amount of time. No waiting around and very organized. If you’re looking for a good tour, this is it."

Arrival at the trail head

The Manoa Falls Trail winds through a tropical forest used in many blockbuster films and TV shows, including Jurassic Park and Lost.

It is a fun and easy hike suitable for people of all ages!

"Nice trail! Great rain forest and falls. This tour is very good value and thoughtful (rain poncho, trekking poles, bottled water) and the tour guide, Yumi, is very considerate."

Ready, Set, Hike!

As we go along the trail, don’t forget to keep your eyes, ears and nose ready to absorb the natural beauty of Hawaii.

"The fallS was a wonderful sight, but the hike was fascinating as well. We booked this tour after getting a great island tour from Shanti and John. Overall, it was an interesting hike. We not only got a nice workout, we also learned about the plants and animals along the way. It was an amazing experience - thank you!"

Experience the forest's energy

Locals believe that this forest is the home to Menehune’s, ancient Hawaiian “elves”. See if you can spot them among the thick jungle foliage!

"Billy our tour guide was so knowledgeable and patient with the group! Some of us had to take it slow and he helped pull us through! He's a local to Hawaii's and he knows so much about the island, the nature, and the culture. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for some fresh air and beautiful scenery. "

Arrival at the Manoa Falls

At the end of this 45 minute hike you arrive in the “Valley of Rainbows”, just steps away from the foot of Manoa Falls. This 150-foot waterfall will leave you breathless!

"We had an amazing experience with the crew members! They are definitely the highlight of our experience other than the enchanting forest and waterfall! So exciting to found out that Jurrasic Park and Lost were filmed in this exact place!"
