Excellent experience and the mountain views were stunning. The guides were very informative and friendly. The fresh water basin was an excellent stop to have a dip

Not recommended if physically fragile, as several hours standing on the seats holding on well with hands. But a real pleasure to see these landscapes. A 4*4 adventure that we recommend. Climate trpical so rain is always possible, but we dry quickly 😀. One regret, a few short stops, we had time...

Beautiful landscapes in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. The opportunity to travel standing on the benches to admire the view with the guide's comments is a great plus! Thank you Mato

Loved the tour, one of the best. The stop to buy lunch was a bakery. Excellent sandwiches and pastries and very reasonable, took cash or credit cards. Guides were very knowledgeable. Close to 8 hour tour. We rode through the middle of the island which was amazing. So glad we did it. Highly recommend even though it was very very bumpy at times it was so much fun as that was part of the fun. Please read the description if you have balance issues or back problems or physically impaired you may want to avoid. Most of my photos were too large to download.

It has already been said, but be prepared for a very rocky, strenuous ride. Sometimes you bump the handrails with your ribs, and your knees and ankles have to work to keep your balance. But, it is a great way to see parts of the island you would never see.

Very nice experience, have never seen so many waterfalls, guide was incredible. Road is a bit bumpy but nothing you can’t handle or need to focus on.

We took the whole family on this 4x4 mountain and waterfall adventure, and it was absolutely amazing! The scenery was breathtaking, from lush valleys to crystal-clear rivers and hidden basins. Every moment felt like an adventure, and our guide made it both exciting and fun. Such a beautiful way to experience the heart of Tahiti, we loved every second! Highly recommend this tour for families looking to explore beyond the beaches.

It was a great experience to get to know the island like this! Much experienced much seen! Beautiful....only people with back problems should do another tour! No road just bush and countless holes....you get quite shaken back and forth.....but otherwise the tour was mega great

This tour is everything advertised and more. The pick up spot was easy to find and the guides were on time and ready to go. We drove across the island, right through the middle of the cauldron of the volcano. Gorgeous views. The stop at the river was well timed and needed as the day was sunny and hot. It is bumpy, as described. Our guide was fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. Definitely remember sun screen, bug spray and water.
