Ray was our guide for the hike to the waterfalls. He was extremely knowledgeable about the island’s land masses, trees, and history. It was clear he loves his island. It was a fun but muddy hike and the waterfalls were stunning! The hike was followed by a downhill bike ride. The excursion was fun and I learned a lot more about the history and natural habitat of Oahu, as well as a few Hawaiian words. Recommend to those who like to be active and want to better understand the island’s beautiful landscape.

I liked the hike & biking experience. The guides were very knowledgeable & informative. However, I found the tour not handled too professionally considering the amount they charged us. Our tour was supposed to be from 9am to 5 pm. But we were done by 2:45 pm . Out of which the hike was just 1 hour & biking was about 50 minutes. Rest of the time was spent in pick ups & commuting. Did feel a bit cheated & overcharged.

Aloha Ruchika, Thank you so much for posting your review. We appreciate this. Our Bike and Hike tour is from 9am to 3pm, (not 5pm). This tour includes a visit to two different sides of the island, so commuting is needed to showcase the island to our guests.
We hope you will join us again for another hike to a private property where we have exclusive access high above west Oahu. Commuting will be required again to get the good places. Best of fun on the rest of your vacation. Aloha from all of us here at BikeHawaii.com

Very knowledgeable and professional. Safety was paramount. Great views and no pedalling! The hike was canceled due to tree trimming on the trail, but he substituted 2 hours of snorkeling at no extra charge. I would recommend to friends and family.

This is a perfect day out for fit, active, sporty travellers. Firstly there is a hike through the rainforest. Be careful, as it gets slippery and don't wear expensive trainers (sneakers) as there is quite a lot of mud. The scenery is stunning. Following the hike, the second part of the tour is a cycle ride. As stated in the description and in some other reviews, this is 100% downhill - so don't expect a strenuous workout. I did feel sore after the hike though. All in all a great wat to see a different part of Oahu and get away from Waikiki for the day.

for the cost it was not worth it, from the description it said 3 hours so i’m thinking we would be atleast riding for 2 hours instead you rode for 30 mins it seems going downhill the whole time. my iwatch said i burned 27 calories, i was so disappointed as i love bike tours when i travel and this was not a bike tour. there’s a hike that comes with it which was nice but again could be easily done without a tour guide.
definitely maybe something for people who don’t bike much. the tour guides are extremely nice. other than that i wouldn’t recommend for anyone looking for a bike tour.

Aloha Olivia, I was surprised to read your review. The name of our tour is "Honolulu Downhill Bike and Waterfall Hike Tour" It is sold as a downhill, because it is pretty much all downhill which makes it so popular. Our guides take pride in sharing our island home with visitors from around the globe, because the Hawaiian Islands are so unique and a visitor gets more out of a destination on a guided tour. We hope you will join us again someday and perhaps try our eBIke Honolulu Rainforest tour: also known as 10-miles of Smiles. Scale back the electric-assist and you can burn plenty of calories and you just might not finish this bike tour. With aloha and smiles from your faithful crew, a hui hou!

The tour guides were fantastic providing some great information on the area. The bike ride was just as it was advertised, very little pedaling. Prepare to do a lot of braking on the trek down winding countryside. We had a great time. Would definitely recommend to allow for a lazy morning before spending the afternoon on this tour.

Our tour guide Brooke was wonderful. She was informative and knowledgable of the area and terrain. She was pleasant and accommodated our group for speed. I enjoyed the informational hike through the rainforest and would highly recommend if you are looking for a leisure hike. If you want a really laid back bike ride then this is also for you. Personally I would have preferred a longer hike and a more vigorous bike ride. Signing up with Viatour was the right choice for not having been to Oahu before.

Rain Forest hike is optional but would rate it the best parts of this trip. Guide was VERY informative on all local animals and plants.
