Manoa Falls & Botanical Garden Tours by Wanderlust Hawaii

Welcome to Wanderlust Hawaii, the tours catered to the young and adventurous, that feel more like road tripping with friends!

Join us on a tour where we'll get to see some of Oahus most beautiful tropical rainforest and gardens! Here are the stops we'll make:

Manoa Falls Trail: for the first stop of the day we will head to Manoa Falls for a short walk (30min each way) through the jungle until we reach the 150ft waterfall at the end of the trail. The trail is relatively easy for most people but the second half is slightly elevated so you will need some endurance as well as water and proper shoes for the hike. For this trail you will be free to explore at you own pace so we will give you as much information as we can about the trail before you start. Because of this you will be given a specific time frame to be back at the pickup point.

Tantalus Lookout: Next on the list you'll get to drive up to the top of a mountain where you can see a 180 degree view of all of the Honolulu skyline as well as views out west. This is a short 15min stop for pictures and to enjoy the views

Da Spot (lunch): Then we get some much need lunch at "Da Spot" which is a local favorite and never disappoints. Please check out their menu if you have any dietary restrictions although they do have something for almost everyone! Remember that lunch is not included with the tour price so bring money for that.

Ho'omaluhia Botanical Gardens: Lastly we head over to the east side of the island to explore Oahu's most famous botanical garden where we'll stay for 1hr 45min. The garden is know for having tropical plant species from all over the world as well as a large pond and scenic lookout point. Please keep in mind that this garden is over 400 acres so you will not have time to see everything but the best parts can be seen in the time frame we are there! Also there is no guided tours allowed at the gardens so this stop will be treated as a shuttle.

After that stop we head back to Waikiki to drop off at your hostel!
