This tour blew us away. Our guide took us around the entire island, over ankle deep sand bars and bottomless ocean. Gliding over the changing hues of blue was a truly unforgettable experience. The stop at a private motu for fresh coconut water was a nice bonus. I would absolutely do this tour again and can’t recommend it highly enough.

This tour is fantastic! I highly recommend it. You get to see the entire island by jet ski and spend time on their private island and reef. Ali was a great guide who was so friendly.

Rhonda_D

We had an amazing ride around Bora Bora on jet skis. Our guide was excellent, stopping at perfect locations to admire the ever changing colors of blue in the lagoon, sharing stories of culture and Tahitian life. A quick stop on a motu to enjoy fresh coconuts after a shelling demonstration. We had so much fun, and the jet skis were comfortable and fast. We would love to go again. Zero jet ski experience, but it was easy, fast fun. Fantastic way to appreciate the beauty of the entire Bora Bora Lagoon.

Too speedy.

Kathleen_D, Nov 2025

Very bumpy. Have to go at guide’s speed. Cannot really see anything. Guides were good. Coconut demo was interesting and well presented. Too choppy.

Another must!!!

NelsonD_L, Nov 2025

One of many activities done while visiting Bora Bora. The guided Jet Ski tour was awesome. Learned about different and private islands in the near vicinity. Received 101 on coconut. How to tell the difference from good or bad coconuts. How to crack coconuts, where coconut water comes from, where coconut milk comes from etc. Definitely a beautiful island & even more beautiful to see by water. We highly recommend this tour.

A great tour of Bora Bora by jet ski with Ali!

It was our first ride but we quickly learn how to control the scooter with the help of TAAi! We had fun with this tour!

Beware! Major safety issues. Do NOT Book

John_K, Oct 2025

If we could give zero stars, we would. Reckless, careless, extremely poor attitudes, and vindictive are just a few words we would use to describe this “tour.” The guide clearly had an attitude problem and did not want to be there. At all. He completely ditched us three times, and two out of three times he was so annoyed he raced around in circles to create a massive wake, almost tipping our jetski and sending my wife sailing through the air. Then, on the boat ride back, the boat “captain” drove full throttle through choppy waters with a full container of gas onboard, recklessly putting all the passengers at risk. This company is so completely dangerous. Please avoid at all costs.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Ia Orana John, We are truly sorry to read that your experience did not meet your expectations. Please accept our sincere apologies if you felt unsafe or uncomfortable during your tour — this is never the kind of experience we wish to provide to our guests. Safety and guest satisfaction are our top priorities, and we take your feedback very seriously. We have already reviewed the situation carefully with our team to ensure that such concerns do not happen again. After verifying all details of the tour and the safety procedures followed that day, we can confirm that everything was conducted according to standard safety protocols. Therefore, we unfortunately will not be able to proceed with a refund. We sincerely appreciate your feedback, as it helps us continue improving our service. Mauruuru roa for your understanding, Moana Adventure Tours Team!

Tearing around the island on a jet ski over aqua blue water? Yes please.

DAVID_P, Oct 2025

Anyone that loves jet skis will absolutely enjoy this tour. Only wish that it was longer. 100% recommended.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you so much for your feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the jet ski tour 🏝️💦. We’ll keep your suggestion in mind — maybe next time we can make it even longer! We really appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again soon for another adventure. Best regards, The Moana Adventure Tours Team

This is such a great way...

Karen_H, Oct 2025

This is such a great way to see the island! Our guide, Ali, was fantastic! She gave us good safety info before we started and led us on a fun ride around Bora Bora. Sharing a jet ski was a good option. You can still see everything even if you’re not the driver. So fun!!!

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Ia ora na Karen, Thank you so much for your lovely review! 🌺 We’re so glad you had a great time exploring Bora Bora with Ali — she’ll be so happy to hear your kind words! Sharing a jet ski is such a fun way to enjoy the ride together. We hope to see you again soon for another adventure! 💙

Great way to see Bora Bora!

Joseph_T, Aug 2025

My wife and I had a great time! She chose to ride behind me, and even stayed there when she had the opportunity to switch places with me half-way into the tour. This is a great way to see Bora Bora from all the angles! You also get a break during the tour to go to a motu and learn a little about the culture. They showed us how to open a coconut and to sample the core coconut. Afterward, you go back to the jet ski and zoom back to the starting place! Our guides were very nice and helpful to all guests of all skill levels of riding!

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Ia Ora Na Joseph, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear that you and your wife had such a great time on the tour. Exploring Bora Bora by jet ski truly is a unique way to see the island from every angle, and we’re glad you enjoyed the cultural stop on the motu as well. It’s wonderful to know that our guides made you feel comfortable and supported, no matter the skill level. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with them! We hope to welcome you back again for more fun and adventure in Bora Bora. Warm regards, The Moana Adventures Tours Team!

Not a great activity for unskilled jet skiers.

Lisa_W, Aug 2025

If you like to go 50+ kilometers nonstop in the ocean with huge scary waves, this is the activity for you. My daughter was driving our jet ski and was trying not to hurt me or throw us off so she slowed down on occasion and we were left in the dust. It was hard to find the tour guide and 2 other jet skis in the open ocean around Bora Bora when we would get so far behind. At the end of the 2 hours (of pure torture), my daughter said, "I felt like we were just tag-a-longs on someone else's tour and not our own." She had been soooo excited before the tour and after the first half hour she wanted it to end. She's 20 and has driven jet skis many times but not with gigantic waves hitting her and the tour guide out of sight. If the tour guide pointed out anything, we missed it.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Ia Ora Na Lisa, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations and that the ocean conditions on that day made the tour more challenging for you and your daughter. Safety is always our priority, and our guides do their best to adapt the pace while also ensuring the group stays together. However, Bora Bora’s open-ocean conditions can vary, and sometimes the waves can be larger than expected, which can make the ride more intense. We understand your disappointment, especially since your daughter had been so excited before the tour. While we are unable to offer a refund as the service was fully provided, we do appreciate your comments and will use them to improve communication and guidance during our excursions so that all participants feel more included and comfortable throughout the experience. We truly value your visit and hope that the rest of your time in Bora Bora was filled with memorable moments. Kind regards, Tarita Booking Department

Beware of Open ended 100 Euro per day waiver clause

randallcraig_b, Aug 2025

Before booking with this provider be careful... they will take your payment 1st and then send you a waiver agreement (after payment is completed) their waiver goes far beyond what other companies waivers require...If you are busy enjoying your vacation you may not catch it until it is too late to cancel!!! Most waivers say you must pay for any damage you may cause, which is common and acceptable, but this company's waiver IS VERY open ended. They have added a "loss of service" clause that says they can charge your credit card 100 Euro per day until they decide the "loss of service" period has ended...For example if you run over seaweed and the impeller is damaged you could be paying for the parts, repair, PLUS 100 Euros per day for days, weeks...? while that ski is "out of service"... ? When I called and said I was fine to sign their waiver agreeing to pay for any damage if they crossed out the open ended "100 Euro per day loss of service" clause, and if that was not acceptable to the company, I requested that they simply refund me or at least part of my payment. They said their waiver could not be changed and I would not get any refund... Viator should provide the waiver required by the service provider up front, prior to payment so the customer can decide if they want to complete the transaction. Once the payment is taken, you are locked in and you have no recourse. Like most travelers I book lots of activities & tours during my frequent travels and understand a waiver that covers damages caused by the customer, but I was not comfortable with signing an open ended agreement. I feel at least I should be able to read what I am agreeing to at the time of booking & prior to paying for the service.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Ia Ora Na Randall, Thank you for sharing your concerns and for taking the time to explain your point of view in detail. We understand the importance of knowing all the terms and conditions before committing to any activity, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify. Our waiver is designed to protect both our guests and our equipment, and the “loss of service” clause is a standard precaution in the water sports industry, especially in destinations like Bora Bora where replacement parts and repairs can be more complex and time-consuming due to our remote location. This clause is intended only for significant damage that renders the equipment unusable, and it is applied with fairness and transparency. We understand you were uncomfortable with this specific clause; however, the booking was confirmed, and our terms and conditions were accepted as part of the purchase process. For this reason, we are unable to issue a refund. We will take your feedback into account as we continue to review how we present our terms to ensure future guests are as informed as possible at the time of booking. We hope that despite this situation, you were still able to enjoy your time in Bora Bora and create some unforgettable memories. Kind regards, Tarita Booking Department

Fun experience on jet skis.

Diane_F, Aug 2025

This was a very fun experience! You jet ski around the main island. The jet skis are very stable and comfortable. You have a sealed compartment for your phone and camera as well as a locker at the business to put your belongings. Our guide was very good. He continues to work on his English so sometimes he misunderstands what you are asking. Stopping at the motu for fresh coconut was a highlight.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Ia Ora Na Diane, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you had a fun and comfortable jet ski experience around the island. We’re glad you enjoyed the stop at the motu for fresh coconut—it’s definitely a favorite moment for many of our guests! We also appreciate your kind words about our guide, and we’ll continue supporting him as he improves his English. We look forward to welcoming you back for another great adventure soon! Mauruuru roa, The Moana Adventure Tours Team
