We found this to be a peaceful garden a short drive from Honolulu with the best parts by the visitor’s center. While you can walk to other parts of the garden, it’s easier to drive between the stops…Full review by huia

Ho'omaluhia Botanical Gardens is tucked in a residential neighborhood. You can take a taxi or Uber or Lyft or TheBus (~a mile walk uphill from the nearest bus stop to the entrance). "Must-see" breath-taking view of the Koolau mountain range from the entrance and awesome view of Olomana, etc from a hill-point pass the Visitors Center. There's also a nice path w/ various plants & flowers from the Center to the lake. ENJOY your stroll/hike thru the Gardens. ALOHA!
