    We did both the jet ski and ATV tour. We highly recommend both. Manu was an incredible ATV guide bringing us to top spots on More. Make sure to grab a coconut drink from one of the stops. We had a great time on the jet ski tour as well. 2.5 hours was perfect (I am not a very good jet skier. You should do the opposite of whatever I was doing). Getting to swim with rays and one shark in the ocean was quite the experience. We would highly recommend booking one or more tours with this company. The office manager even let us try her organic mango juice, which was incredible. Make sure to say hi to Salem the cat as well. Thank you for everything!

    I signed up for the ATV tour as well as the jetski's. Jay was my guide for both activities and I couldn't have been any more pleased with him. He is very patient and knowledgeable, making both activities one big playtime! Virginie at the desk was very helpful and kind as well. She caught a booking error I made and reached out to help me change it! Very grateful for these new memories! Definitely recommend and I hope to be back some day!

    We have taken many tours with Moorea Activities Center over the years and have had a fantastic experience every time. Some of the tours we’ve done are the Jet Ski’s, ATV’s and whale swim. Let me tell you, being in the water with a momma whale and her calf for a couple of hours has been one of the highlights of my life. I still talk about it and show people pictures daily. The company is very polite and professional with quick response times. They will even pick you up from your hotel or cruise pier. As a Travel Agency Owner, I highly recommend this company to anyone looking to have fun!

    Went out 5 times with these folks and had an absolutely amazing experience every single time. Over a week, I swam with turtles, eagle rays, reef sharks, dolphins, and pilot whales! And every single day we were able to get in the water with humpback whales. Best of all, the guide and captain are really sensitive to the ocean environment and keep the whales safety and happiness first and foremost in the day's adventure. I can't say enough great things about these folks and highly recommend spending at least one morning with them while you're on Moorea. And they also offer discounts for multiple days out with them.

    Really enjoyed experience! It was really well organized (pick up, explanation,...) and very pleasant. The staff and particularly the guide are really nice. We swam with rays and sharks and even had the chance to see dolphins!

    Excellent and professional company and team. Right amount of Jet ski driving with breaks for swimming and snorkeling. We enjoyed so much.

    One of the most amazing days of my life. Jet skiing with Clemente guiding us. He tailored the tour to match our speed (with a 10 year old). Having never been on a jet ski, I thought it’d be hard to handle and choppy. It was fantastic and the water in the lagoon was glass smooth. Had an amazing time and then we stopped off and stood chest deep in the middle of the ocean to swim with many’s rays and black tip sharks. Epic adventure. Thank you guys!

    I’ve been driving ATVs in California since I was a kid, and can sometimes have questionable experiences. But not here. Everything was nice and we went around the island as a group of ATVs. Taking you up to several amazing viewpoints, and making the most of a fun little excursion. This is the best way to see this beautiful island.

    Don't go here for a jet ski tour- there are lots of other options that are the same price that stop at the same places that have functioning jet skis. We started out having lots of fun celebrating our 10yr old's birthday riding on the jet ski in the bay. After ten minutes the check engine light came on the jet ski started beeping. We stopped and showed Hotu, our guide, the problem and he said not to worry - keep going. Five minutes later, the same problem and the same response. Ten minutes later the jet ski died. They wasted a good hour towing us out to the coral garden and getting a replacement jet ski. We had to wait around and help them transfer jet skis and gear at coral garden. They wouldn't let us snorkel there until they were done because that would be an inconvenience to them? The snorkeling at the coral garden was great and swimming with the rays and sharks was amazing! I wish our guide could have taken better pictures and I wish we had more time there, The guide rushed us back to the center twenty minutes before the end of the tour despite the hour wasted due to their lack of maintenance on the jet skis. There was no acknowledgment or apology from the guide, or the three women working there, for the jet ski breaking down, which is why I am giving this two stars. If they gave us an apology and twenty more minutes to make it up I would give it four stars. Instead, they acted like nothing ever happened and expected a tip, which we would have provided if they acknowledged their mistake or tried to make it up.

    The Jet Ski tour with Moorea Activities Center was the highlight of our trip to Moorea. They picked us up at our hotel and brought us back when done. All very organized. We got lucky because my wife and I were the only ones who signed up for a tour on the day we went. We were able to go out beyond the reef for a short ride on the open ocean. Riding the swells was a blast (even if a bit nerve-wracking). We ride over to the west side of the island, which is incredibley beautiful to see from the water. We saw spinner dolphins, eagle rays, and sea turtles up close. We were also got a great look at one of the biggest wave breaks on the island. We had a few different opportunities to swim and snorkel, and saw bunches of manta rays and reef sharks. Overall, it was a great time. Highly recommend.

    Great experience! I was a little reluctant swimming with the sharks but our guide was a professional and very knowledgeable about the full tour. Hotu was awesome. I would bring my kids to this experience and the rest of the staff was excellent. Thank you and until next time! ✌🏽

    Highly recommend going with this company! We booked a guided jet ski tour of the island with this business and it was the highlight of our trip. The tour guides were friendly and accommodating. We felt safely guided the entire time and enjoyed swimming with the sharks and playing with the sting rays. My friend was weary of getting in the water with them but quickly changed her mind because she saw how affectionate the sting rays were with our jet ski guides. It was beautiful to experience and see. Our guide let me jump in the water when we stopped for a water break which I appreciated. If you're on this island then definitely book something with this company! Even though we only did the jet ski tour- I am sure any activities they offer would be amazing!

    ATV experience was amazing! Would highly highly recommend as a really fun way to see the beautiful nature of Moorea. We were able to get picked up and driven back to our hotel as well which was really nice.

    We did the big atv tour and medium jet ski tour combo! Awesome day! With the atv you visit places you can't access by car, probably only if you hike. Great views and route! Also the jet ski tour rocked! We got to snorkel with Rays and small sharks for a while. During the last portion of the tour it starting pouring rain and it was something to get back and drive the jet ski. Super fun though! 5*

    Seeing the whales was incredible, but the French guide did not provide any scientific explanations or context. The local captain knew much more about where the whales were, their behavior, and the ocean dynamics we were seeing. He did not speak strong English however and it was not his job to guide us so overall we felt the guidance and explanation part was lackluster.

    We booked our ATV & JetSki tours with Moor’ea Activities Center about a month before our trip via their website. It was super easy and I was thankful to have the reservations because most things were sold out during our trip. We experienced some weather during the scheduled days and they worked with us to reschedule for a nicer day before our departure. The atv and jet ski tours were both lots of fun and worth it. Book it, you won’t be sorry.

    Really fun ATV ride, and the views were absolutely gorgeous! We saw cute tiny pineapples growing, tasted local juices/alcohols, and went up Magic Mountain. They even provided ponchos for the rain, and honestly the dramatic weather made it feel like even more of an adventure.

    Did the whale watching experience and ATV experience. Enjoyed both activities immensely. Both guides were knowledgeable and fun. We did see whales and swam with them. For safety reasons: be prepared for potentially long sessions of swimming. Not treading water, full on swimming, possibly with few breaks.

  • 5/5 Jairo R. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing experience. We got the jet sky pack and was awesome. Visiting dolphin and rays and sharks. Sunny day would be better but it's out of the control. Anyway is very recommendable.

  • 5/5 Mikael T. 3 years ago on Google
    Did the Humpback whales excursion. They communicated very well by email a few days before and were accommodating to book without us having to pay upfront (we had issue with website payment) . We got free transportation from/to Moorea ferry port. the excursion itself was a dream experience. After an hour of searching for whales, we found a baby whale and her mom and were able to swim with them 😍. Guide was professional and explained to us clearly how to behave with whales or sharks encounter. Nice touch : we were able to get the gopro video for free transfered to my phone storage (make sure to have enough space... around 5 go). Will remember that trip all my life 👍👍👍

    Highly recommend this company. Our family did the combo of 1 hour her ski and 3 1/2 hr ATV. Plus the private boat for half a day. The booking experience with Virginie and her counterparts were so easy. Flaviae also helped us. Let's get to the excursions. 1 hour jet ski with Heimanu was amazing. We went jet skiing for our son's 11th birthday. Heimanu ensured this would be a birthday our son would not forget. Thank you! We got to see sharks and rays. Plus see the beautiful island in a short period of time. Next, we went on an ATV tour with Jay. WOW 😲. Jay knows so much about the island and gods. It was such a special event. 3.5 hours flew by. He has a spirit and energy about him that makes you want more. Even with the rain we wanted to go longer on the tour. If you do the ATV tour, ask for Jay. You will not regret. The last thing we did in Mo'orea was a boat tour to see dolphins, turtles, sharks and rays. We got to see it all! Yes.... All! It was such a fun day. My husband said it was the best yet. Jay made sure we were taken care of and safe which is important with the currant. Highly recommend the company. They take pictures or record your experience so you can relax. They went beyond our expectations and loved every minute. It is not cheap! But worth what they do for their clients. Plus the drinks provided at the end are yummy 😋.

    5 stars people work there! We had such a great time that first day, we came back for more! First day was for jet ski adventure for our 16 yo who didn’t want a tour.. she wanted the freedom to do as she pleased on the Jet ski! We had Jay as our guide who couldn’t have been more amazing! Our sportive teen loved it! We spent another day with them for AVT and again wow we had a top fun experience visiting in land, and tasting the freshest ice creams and jams of Moore’s best fruits! Virginie at the desk was also a 5 stars in hospitality, explaining everything and guiding us for other days we had to explore the island! Great people for even greater adventures! We will be back! Karine, Isabelle & David

    A definite must-do on Moorea. We signed up for the Jet-ski and ATV excursions, and both were amazing. You get to see Moorea from the water and tour it’s interior plain all in one day. The guides both did an excellent job of tailoring the experience to you, are very personable. The jet-ski experience was highlighted by the shark/sting ray experience, it was an incredible experience being in the water with them. On the ATV tour- make sure you get a smoothie at the shop at the entrance to Magic Mountain. Delicious. We did not do the whale watching tour, but will definitely sign up for it the next time we’re lucky enough to be in Moorea.
