★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 128 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $140Our pick

Take a two-hour, six-mile e-bike ride through Kualoa and Kaʻaʻawa valleys, with four or five stops for photos and views.

Hired e-bike because I have a sore hip & it was brilliant because it even had a throttle which was very handy when I was in pain. Meant I could ride with my partner who brought his own road bicycle. Only negative was that for the long period we had it, it was very expensive, but there isn’t much else around. Staff & process was great. Highly recommend if you like to bike!”
