A gradual uphill run (we can set the pace determined by who is in the group) passing by Kapiolani Park, residential neighborhoods, a few shops, restaurants, and historical/ former military sites. Once inside the crater, it's a 560 ft. gain on a trail to the bunker at the summit. There are 175 steps on the way. At the top - there is an amazing 360 view of Waikiki and surrounding Honolulu.

Apologies for the late review but I reached out to City Running Tours Honolulu before our trip in June 2019. The response was quick and the booking was easy. Great communication before the run. Kawika sent a bunch of useful information for us for the city of Waikiki from a local's perspective. We went on the Diamond Head Sunrise tour. I lived in Hawaii when I was little but never went to Diamond Head. Kawika was prompt, personable, and brought water and snacks for the tour. We got lucky as my husband I were the only people that signed up for the tour so it was a private tour. Kawika gave us great tips on running (we are not "real" runners or fast) and let us take it easy. He knew all the great spots for good photos and was very patient. Afterwards, I forgot the Diamond Head brochure (because he carried it in his backpack for me) and he came all the way back to the hotel to drop it off for us. Such a great guy and wonderful service. We highly recommend a run with City Running Tours and ask for Kawika! THANK YOU!!!
