Diamond Head is definitely a great hike.

[@ervinslens]

Fantastic cinematography my friend, shots are phenomenal and your narration fits so nicely. Professional work 👌👌

[@dwaynearoundtown]

So glad you enjoyed! Thank you! 🙏🏾

[@tracyefavors8974]

Boy, what a hike! Thanks for being such a great tour guide. Diamond Head is not for the weak at heart nor for weak knees. The stairs are definitely intimidating; however the views were splendid. 👏🏽👏🏽

[@dwaynearoundtown]

😂😂 It is NOT for those weak in the knees. But listen, if you break it up...it makes it better.

[@RoadTripper0123]

This is a great hiking introductory video. I enjoyed watching this video. Next time I go to Hawaii, I will definitely go to the Diamond Head Trail. This is such a good video.👍

@@dwaynearoundtown thank you it’s my first solo trip and I cannot wait!

[@dwaynearoundtown]

[@themikehalverson]

I feel like I was THERE! So beautiful!

[@dwaynearoundtown]

Mike! Brotha, that makes me so happy to hear. That's exactly what I wanted everyone to feel. 🙏🏾

[@angelinaleon-favela6992]

With my bad leg I'd be afraid to come in counter with those stairs. I'd have to get a little in shape before I'd attempt this. Looks beautiful. Tia Angie

[@dwaynearoundtown]

It's really beautiful but those stairs will kick you booty! lol I actually went to Diamond Head this morning and it wore me out (I'm a little out of shape). I'm trying to get me a summer body in the fall. 😂 It's so beautiful! I know you would you love it! ❤

[@MarkeithBraden]

Great video! You are a good story teller.

[@dwaynearoundtown]

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@sequetiahammons8538]

That’s so wonderful Dwayne!! Hawaii is on my bucket list! What an awesome experience! You are great as a guide.

[@dwaynearoundtown]

Heeeeeey!!!! I'm SO happy you stopped by to check things out! ❤️ Thank you much.

[@rblackiston]

Great video! I’m in love with your channel. Keep up the great content. Btw, did I miss it…how long did this hike take (round trip)?

[@dwaynearoundtown]

Aloha Nit! 😎🤙🏾 Thank you so much for watching! 🙏🏾 I'm so glad you stopped by! Okay...so this particular trip took me about 2 hours round trip but that was because I was filming and taking my time and walking all over the place. If I have some pep in my step, I can do it round trip in an hour and change. But the views are so pretty I like to take my time.

[@synettareeves4515]

Wayne, I am so very proud of you! This is better than I imagined! I absolutely love everything about your guide. This is so informative… you have not scared me- I have to do this hike!❤❤

[@jomusicman]

This video is very in-depth. Thank you. I don't know about those stairs though 🤣

[@dwaynearoundtown]

Those stairs are no joke 😂 I had to mute my breathing so I was not huffing and puffing. lol

[@jomusicman]

@@dwaynearoundtown I had to get my inhaler & my knife looking at them.

[@dwaynearoundtown]

@@jomusicman Just keep your mind on the views...it's all about the views. lol

[@linzm228]

We did this when we were there and that hike is no joke. Definitely worth the views, but those steps are killer. Nice job Dwayne.

[@dwaynearoundtown]

Hi! That's so awesome you got to do the hike! And for sure...those stairs will give you a nice little workout burn but as they say...no pain...no gain. Because those views tho! Thanks for hiking it again with me!

[@raffealsears]

DWAYNE, YOU ARE IN YOUR BAG!!!! You betta give us an amazing tour! I can't wait to hike this bad boy in person...you will have to talk me up to the top though (lol)!!

[@dwaynearoundtown]

Awww man, thank you! I'm just trying to take you along for the ride. It a good hike for your legs too..Lord knows I need every step. lol I'll talk you through; I got you!

[@greerviewmirror]

Courtland and I were just commenting that if we ever go to Hawaii, we will know what to eat and where to go - and from the perspective of a hometown boy. I think I trust that a little more!

[@dwaynearoundtown]

Let me tell you...I got you! And I'm learning more and more each week. 😉

[@marvinandjosh1]

Listen cousin. I’ll have to live vicariously through you because ain’t no way. And then you have to go back DOWN?!? Nope.

[@synettareeves4515]

😂

[@dwaynearoundtown]

[@discostu5426]

is the reservation thing new? Been there four times in the last six years and didn't need reservations. I like the idea of reservations actually, it gets sooo crowded at the top. Love your videos!

[@dwaynearoundtown]

Mahalo Disco Stu! I appreciate you for watching. You are correct...the reservations are a new thing. It started around summer of last year (2022). It was a surprise to me too.

[@charliedaniel3287]

Hey cuz I really enjoyed the tour

[@dwaynearoundtown]

Cuz! Come through!!! 🙏🏾 Thank you.
