My husband and I did the North Shore Intermediate Hike with Chris in mid-January. We didn't know what to expect the hike to be like so we were surprised when Chris told us we were hiking to the top of the mountain that was standing before us! The hike up and down were super easy, switchbacks through the trees on the side of the mountain. Chris chatted with us the entire time, sharing info about the local culture, history, other activities to do, and places to eat. He was very friendly and a great tour and hiking guide! He made sure that we took multiple breaks for water, to catch our breath, point out amazing views, and to take photos of us along the way. I found the tour through Go Oahu Card and I'm so glad I did! Spending 2 hours with Chris hiking to the top of that mountain was one of the highlights of our trip.
