Motorized island tours – 4x4s and vans

Motorized tours of the island in 4×4s or vans are an easy way to discover Moorea in half a day or a full day. These tours are suitable for all audiences and offer an overview of the island, including the lagoon, mountains, and villages. The itineraries generally follow the ring road, with regular stops at iconic sites. Among the most frequent stops are the lookout points, notably Opunohu, which offers a panoramic view of both bays. Passing through pineapple fields gives an understanding of the importance of this crop in Moorea's agricultural history. Tours often include stops in villages and cultural sites, such as marae, artisan workshops, or small local establishments offering tastings of fenua products: juices, jams, vanilla, rum, and other artisanal goods. Stops along the lagoon are also part of the tour, with views of beaches, passes, and swimming areas. Some tours allow free time to walk around, take photos, or simply enjoy the scenery. 4×4 tours sometimes provide access to less accessible trails and areas, particularly in the valleys, while van tours prioritize comfort and conviviality. In Moorea, these motorized tours are a convenient and guided way to discover the island's main sites, while benefiting from the explanations of local guides.
