This was an incredibly fun way to see the volcano. I am 52 yo and my wife is 46 yo. We are in pretty good shape. The bikes are in good shape and do not require much exertion at all.
Highly recommend!

We enjoyed seeing the park from all different view points. We enjoyed being outside and the ease of riding the e-Bike! The company representative was very professional and spent as much as time as necessary to explain the trip, the use of the GPS app, etc.

We rent a lot of bikes and these are far away the best maintained and best ergonomic bikes I've ever used from a rental company. Even the handlebar grips were high quality, unlike the typical cheap handlebar grips that deteriorate and get all sticky and gross. Everything was killer, and Gwendolyn is super rad and super knowledgeable with endless excellent recommendations.

The tour was great and the ebikes did the job. The Guide App and especially the switch to the Audio option was a little bit scratchy. Maybe the german network provider was part of this problem but it was no showstopper for the Tour. Mahola to our Instructor, she did a great job.

I was very disappointed with E- Bike Rental and would not recommend this to anyone. I arrived early and did have a few questions but was told that she wasn't ready to open just yet and that she had to finish setting up the bikes. I understood this and waited in my car. at about 9:45am. she called out for me to get started. She set up my bike, helmet and gave me some instructions. I let her know that I had some questions concerning the app that will be downloaded to use as a guided tour and I was concerned about the weather. She began to side step the questions, "I'll get to that" she said, than she moved to my payment. She started again "lets get your card/payment" so I did pay. Now a group of 6 came in for their bike set up. This is when she started to ignore me and moved on to help the others. I kept trying to interject, "can we finish setting me up so I can go?" She took my phone acting as if she was trying to download something as she kept talking to the group. Another group of people arrived and again I was set back farther in this mess. By now it was 11:15am. I waited for her customers to start leaving/ride theirs bikes away before I told her that I've waited long enough, I'm done, I'm out. I did not like her lack of courtesy and attitude towards me. My patience had ran out.

Going downhill at full speed, around the curves was awsome! Learned a lot of new information on volcanos. We really enjoyed lunch at the base.

Oh my goodness, what a highlight of our trip to the Big Island. The park and the path that Gwendolyn outlined was amazing. Everything went so smooth and Gwendolyn helped us with everything we needed to know to have a fun, adventurous, and safe ride. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Also, we saw so many rainbows toward the end of the day.

We had lots of fun zooming around volcanoes. We enjoyed the audio tour but be aware it does drain your phone. The lady who helped us with bikes was VERY nice. It was an on and off rainy day and she let us borrow some left over wind breakers because the nearby store was out of ponchos. Time flew by.

This was a fun way to tour a National Park. Gwendolyn was extremely nice and thorough in her briefing. The GPS app worked really well. After driving 2 hours to get to the park, it was fun to be on bikes instead of sitting in the car more. Several people stopped us to ask about the bike rentals. We got to see everything at the park we would have wanted to see by car/foot. Later in the day, cars were backed up, trying to get a parking spot (near Thurman Lava Tubes I believe) and we had zero issues with that. I recommend downloading the app the night before you go via the instructions Bike Volcano emails you. I Did not have a problem with cell service at the park (I thought I would) so I made sure to save the trip to offline on the app but it wasn’t really needed.
