I had a fantastic time on the tour with Corrina. We cycled along the domestic route and gained fascinating insights into the lives of the local tribes. Corrina introduced us to various local fruits, which we were able to sample. The lunch by the beach was delicious. It was a great experience!
The morning bike ride was fantastic. We were picked up from our hotel and driven in an "island style" manner to the starting location. Our guide was attentive and ensured we always stopped in the shade for explanations. She made a special effort to let us try all the available fruits, and husking and eating a coconut was a delightful surprise. The lunch provided was tasty as well. I definitely recommend this excursion—10/10.
A pleasant bike ride along the internal road close to the airport, returning via the main road. Carinna was a fantastic guide, and we made numerous stops to explore culturally significant landmarks and learn about local plants and fruits. The experience concluded with a picnic on the beach.
We had a great time exploring parts of the Island that were new to us. Corrina provided interesting and relatable insights into the history and lifestyle of the Island, sharing her own experiences. Thank you for an exceptional adventure!
An amazing bike tour—thank you, Corinna, for a wonderful morning exploring Rarotonga.
We had an incredible experience on this cycling tour. Our guide, Corrina, was warm, engaging, and filled with knowledge about the island's food and culture. We were picked up 'Island style' in the back of a Ute, or you could choose to sit in the cabin. The tour, which included eight participants plus Corrina, primarily took us along inland roads, with some parts on the main outer road. We aren't regular cyclists, but we easily managed the short inclines. There were many stops to pick fruits, taste local delicacies, and learn about customs and stories. We even shared our fruit scraps with a local pig. The day concluded with a delightful picnic on the beach featuring Turkish bread sandwiches, banana bread, and breadfruit crisps, followed by a transfer back to our accommodation. We highly recommend this unique tour on the island.
The communication from the tour company leading up to our trip was positive, but when we waited for our hotel pickup, we discovered our reservation had been canceled. Despite being the only customers, we were informed locally that the tour was off, which was surprising given that we had booked months in advance. The operator mentioned she would have taken us out, but we were not given that option. Instead, we were only offered a refund with no time to rebook during our trip. We feel we missed out significantly. She promised to follow up with us but never did. I don't recommend this type of tour without verifying details, even though we were confident everything was fine due to prior communications and payment confirmation. We are still awaiting clarification.
This tour was fantastic, with wonderful people and a smooth experience. Our guide cleverly avoided the large tour groups, allowing us to enjoy the turtles without interference in our photos. Thank you for an amazing tour.
This tour is highly recommended. It was an excellent experience with Corrina, who is knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive to everyone. Her storytelling really brings the island's history and culture to life. The bikes were top-notch, and the lunch on the beach was fantastic.
I wasn't able to join the tour due to poor weather conditions, but the support and communication from the operator were outstanding, and I would definitely book again. I encountered some frustration with booking through TripAdvisor, as many activities in Raro are managed by Viator and then listed on TripAdvisor, which complicated the process. Although the vendor successfully handled my weather-related refund with Viator, I still had to navigate TripAdvisor to request the refund myself to ensure confirmation from both parties. I would choose to book again, but not through either site; instead, I would prefer to go directly through the operator's website.
