eBike Tour Honolulu Rainforest

The ride was wonderful. We had a fantastic and interesting guide called Mikai. We were collected on time.

We had a fantastic picturesque ride with a wonderful guide Mikai. I would recommend this as a must do.

Great Experience!

My family of 4, 40s, 16 and 14 had a great time on this bike ride. Our guide, Maki, was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable about the island, funny, and kept a great pace for us. We really enjoyed the views, changing environment, the knowledge gained through Maki. If you’re in good shape and enjoy awesome scenery, this is the adventure for you. It’s 5 miles uphill on bikes that require pedaling, so you need to be in ‘okay’ shape. The 5 miles downhill was our favorite part as we were able really fly down the mountain!

Over promised under delivered

Don’t get me wrong, the guide was great, the ride was great BUT we’re still waiting on the pictures that the guide said he’d email us, 4 months ago. I’ve followed up twice with no response.

Response from the operator: Aloha, we are glad you enjoyed your eBike tour. But who was your guide? We can reach out to him and get the photos you are waiting for. This is the first time we heard that you are waiting for a picture.

An awe-inspiring view from the top of Honolulu!

I am super active but had never been on an ebike. It is perhaps the coolest concept I've come across. The bikes were super smooth and the harder/faster you pedal, the more it assists. I was so tickled! Our tour guide, Ian, was also great. Born on Maui, he came to Oahu to attend college, so he has a lifetime of authentic memories of the state and knowledge to share. The total elevation gain was about 1,000 feet, but felt flat as a pancake with the ebikes. The views of Lē' Ahi (Diamond Head) along the ascent were great, with each one better than the last until you finally reach the summit and are rewarded with the most were awe-inspiring view you'll ever see. I cannot recommend this tour enough. Do it, and it may just be the highlight of your trip!

Get Away from the Crowds

This was our fourth trip to Hawaii over the years and we'd already done the historical stuff. Also not a fan of crowds or shopping or drinking. I found this eBike tour on Viator and it was fantastic! John is the owner/guide and led us on a 10 mile loop through the hills of Maikiki Heights, above the city. Although on paved roadway the whole way, going through this forest preserve area felt a world away from the hustle and bustle below. And the views - STUNNING! Waikiki, Diamond Head and the Pacific beyond. After the tour, I appreciated the granola bar and free ride back into town, so we did not have to wait on an Uber. We had a great time! One bummer, that worked itself out, was that the time for our tour was changed from 9:30am to 8:00am. I did not notice that until the night before. As we were not getting into port until 7:30am, I was nervous about it. But I reached out to John and told him we would do our best. My husband and I hustled that morning and were the very first two people off the ship and grabbed the first taxi. Plenty of time!! The main thing that annoyed me was the other couple on the tour. Definitely not in John's control at all, but wanted to mention it as an aside. I do not know if they were influencers or not, but behaved as if they were the ENTIRE ride!! Selfie sticks while riding, stopping and taking specialty photos A LOT, posing in a zillion ways to get the 'perfect shot' for IG, etc. It made us have to stop far more often than was already planned and wait for them to do their thing. If anyone wants to do a tour for this purpose, they should book privately and not hinder those wanting a relaxing outdoor adventure. Thanks, John, for a great tour! Definitely a highlight of our stops on the islands!
