Hawaii is definitely the first name that we think about when we want something exotic. Oahu is the one destination where you would expect to experience nature in a way that is similar to nothing else. That is definitely what you can get whenever you travel to Oahu. As you surely expect, dozens of nature adventures are available for those that are interested. We selected some of them to recommend as a great fit for most tourists that want to visit Oahu and experience nature.
Kualoa Ranch Adventure
Kualoa Ranch is actually popular among tourists from all around the world. You just need to visit once to want to keep coming back. The Full Day adventure is the one that you will want to experience. There are interesting options that are available but we do recommend that you enjoy horseback riding and the ATV tour since they are particularly great. If you want more adrenaline, opt for the jungle expedition option. When you have the time, go for the restaurant so that you can enjoy some BBQ pork ribs, corn, chili and our favorite, teriyaki beef and chicken.
Highlights:
- One day adventure
- Choose out of 2 adventure tours
- Various activities to choose from
- Lunch is included
- Hotel drop-off or pickup available if you want to take advantage of this
Small Group Adventure – Diamond Head Crater
You should consider hiking to the Diamond Head Volcano summit in order to get some tremendous views of the entire Waikiki. This is actually the best place to do this. You would be led by an expert hiking guide for 2.5 hours, reaching the Diamond Head State Park. The area is one of the spectacles that nature has to offer. You definitely do not want to miss it.
Highlights:
- Only small group accommodated so full guide attention offered
- The entire walk is guided
- Climbing certificate included
- Experience can be personalized
- Drop-off and pickup available at most Waikiki hotels
Kualoa Ranch Horseback Adventure
If you do not want to go for the full day adventure, a 1 or 2 hours horseback ride in the Kualoa Ranch is something that will definitely be appreciated. Even the drive to the ranch is something that you will appreciate because of the Hawaiian scenery. During the horseback adventure, you will get past the Ka’a’awa Valley, forests and even some World War II bunkers. You will particularly appreciate the views of the Kanehoalani Mountains and the expert guide is going to offer a lot of information about Hawaii’s history. Keep in mind that the ride takes you through locations were many Hollywood movies like Pearl Harbor and Jurrassic Park were filmed.
