ATV fun - Highly recommend! The staff was great and had a lot of personality.
The ATV tour was awesome. The guides gave a little history lesson on each Polynesian island, tried pineapple, poi, coconut water. They made it fun by doing a local game.
The only thing we could recommend is a better sign to the location from the highway.

Fun Experience with Aloha Adventures - The young lady at the front desk was very polite and welcoming and the guides we had were amusing fun and informative. I really enjoyed learning about their culture in the island as we made pit stops in between the fun off roading moments. We even did some activities related to their culture which it more amusing and entertaining. I really enjoyed this a lot and would recommend it to anyone visiting.

Fun to do! - This was fun! We had our 17 yo son with us and he was able to drive his own ATV. There was a small group and 2 guides. I’m not an experienced ATV driver but the trails were not too difficult to navigate. There were stops along the way with cultural info and snacks.

Excellent tour - This tour was a lot of fun and educational too. Riding an atv on narrow rocky trails through the forest and learning about the many Polynesian cultures along the way. The guides gave presentations at each stop and let us riders participate in fun activities that taught us about the lives of the different cultures of the Pacific Islanders. We also caught sight of some of the local wildlife

Shotgun UTV riders! - We were expecting to ride in a UTV without an "Uber" driver! So disappointing!!
However, our driver was able to share important information other ATV operators were not privy to.
