Kurt was our private guide for the day and did a great job with both the food and the photo part of the tour. There were so many beautiful spots that we went to on this tour - the online description doesn't do this justice. Kurt provided us with some helpful, quick tips about taking better photos with our cellphone cameras. The food provided on this tour is delicious and plentiful - again, the online description doesn't really tell you how much value there is in this tour. We couldn't finish it all and came back to the hotel with lots of leftovers. Kurt was very kind to my partner who was not feeling well the day of our trip. Would definitely recommend this tour!

This was the best. Our tour guide was excellent and picked us up promptly at the hotel. We were the second car in line to get let into the park- our tour guide let us know that a local, Bruce, who climbs every morning at dawn and is 85 years young, is always first! The tour bus was very comfortable and climate controlled. The acai bowl was the perfect end to our morning and very refreshing and light. We had a wonderful time and would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience Diamondhead at sunrise.

Overall a good experience. It seems like we didn’t need to be picked up at 5am to sit on the bus for 45 minutes until the gate opens. Communicating that before and the reason would be helpful. Otherwise, it was a decent adventure for price and convenience to access the trail.

It was amazing Everyone should take the trip It was well organized The guide was so knowledgeable about the history of the island And he was just so nice and pleasant and answer all our questions

Excellent tour! Cuzzin Koko had a wealth of information of all the areas he took us to. Tip this guide well as he will make your tour memorable!
