Diamond Head Tour
Enjoy a 2-hour guided all-terrain self-balancing hoverboard tour of Waikiki to the oceanfront cliffs past Diamond Head lighthouse. On the perfect platform for sightseeing and adventure, you’ll hover over Waikiki’s sandy pathways, grassy areas, and sidewalks and learn about the scenic highlights from your expert guide. Less in-depth with history and culture and without audio headsets like our signature tours have, this faster tour focuses more on the excitement of riding, fun facts, and beautiful photo opportunities.
The small group tour takes a fun path around the less crowded naturally scenic areas of Waikiki to Amelia Earhart lookout with views of East Oahu, neighbor islands, and sometimes whales in the winter months. Hover past the Honolulu Aquarium, neoclassical War memorial, Historic Kapiolani Bandstand, massive banyan trees, charming cottages, outrigger canoes off Kaimana Beach, 100’ tall palm tree groves, nearly secluded beach parks, popular surfing & snorkeling spots, and enjoy wonderful oceanfront views of Waikiki.
Where to?
Meet your guide and learn to hoverboard in front of the Honolulu Zoo in Waikiki. With a little practice, controlling the hoverboard becomes intuitive with a slight shift of weight or tilt of the bar taking you where you want to go. Effortlessly glide past a life-size statue of Queen Kapiolani before entering the park dedicated to her in 1877. The park is home to the Honolulu Shell Amphitheater, Royal Hawaiian Band bandstand, Honolulu Aquarium, Zoo, sculptures, massive trees, and many festivals and events such as the Honolulu Marathon.
Ride through an alley of exceptional ironwood trees and stop to take a profile pic worthy photo at Diamond Heads most photogenic location. Hover over the grass and under palm trees, fragrant plumeria, flowering Rainbow Shower, and large monkeypod while enjoying the island views.
Learn about the area while stopping to rest at a quiet local beach park then enjoy the historic french norman tutor cottages near the Gold Coast. Glide up past the Diamond Head lighthouse to take in views from the ocean cliffs. See a popular south shore surfing and kiteboarding spot and find out popular places to visit after the tour.
Enjoy breathtaking views of Waikiki on the ride back along the boardwalk past popular local beach Kaimana, War Memorial and Natatorium, Queens Beach, and more!
