Nice discovery of the interior of the island of Tahiti I would however have liked our driver to stop to take pictures of the magnificent views unlike the other 4x4 we met we had to take our photos from the 4x4 while being shaken. I love to take pictures and we had the sun I am a little disappointed but our guide was very getiltul and we smell the passin for his island

By far the best tour! A full 8 hour day with an excellent driver/guide. She gave lots of information about everything we saw I was able to get us through all the roads when other companies were not trying. Very exciting, beautiful scenery, wonderful waterfalls. I highly recommend them.

About eight hours long, nine hours with pickups and drop offs. Very bumpy but very scenic. Good explanations.

We had an excellent experience on this 4x4 excursion. The guides were outstanding, and we learned about the flora, fauna, and history of the Polynesian people of Tahiti. The swim is perfect to cool down on a hot day! It is very bumpy, yet totally worth it if your body can handle it!

Smallgroup of 7 plus experienced Tahitian driver who knows how to drive on rough terrain, unpaved very steep roads. Spectacular views among the sharp volcanic peaks and waterfalls, a nice rest and snacks of local fruit at the camp at the top.

Beautiful adventure, with paths worthy of the “roads of the impossible”. A passionate and very interesting guide.

Of the four tours we took on this trip, this was the best. The tour guide shared insight on the history of the island and people. It was fun and educational. The eels he fed in the stream just topped it all off.

Great experience seeing the interior of Tahiti. Beautiful vistas. Strongly recommended if you do not mind navigating some bumpy roads in the mountains.

It is a long day in the back of a Ute but the sights are spectacular and the guide very knowledgeable. Despite the bumpy ride, it is definitely worth it. I wished we could stop more often - including pit stops as there is really only one , half way through the trip —but I understand that it is not very practical as it would make the day even longer.

The guide was AWESOME as was this tour!! It was rainy so we had the chance to see ALL of the waterfalls in full action. The guide taught us about the various species of flora and fauna and their origins, any animal species, we sampled some fruits, and had the chance to see a group of high school seniors trek to the campsite for their cultural immersion stay. We got a flat tire on the way out and some helpful guys from the hydro plant stopped to help our guide who hopped out and was changing the tire in his bare feet! He explained why some locals preferred to walk in their bare feet and it was just a great opportunity to learn more about Tahitians and their history. I would absolutely recommend this tour. Since I was solo I had the BEST seat in the house with the guide!! Book your tour today!!
