A Photo-op on the ATV Tour
During our five day stay at the Sofitel Moorea, we really wanted to relax and enjoy our overwater bungalow. However, one of the mornings in Moorea turned out to be overcast and rainy. Given the less then ideal weather, we decided to spend one afternoon on an ATV tour around the island. The staff at the Sofitel Moorea took care of the arrangements and ATV Moorea Tours picked us up from the hotel in the early afternoon. The actual ATV tour took us around the outer part and inner part of the island. Four hours later we had a much better perspective of Moorea. My wife and I were able to ride on the same ATV so she was able to capture photos while I was driving. The lush vegetation and fertile land on the inner part of the island was impressive. We took the ATV’s off road on several dirt roads that took us around plantations filled with pineapples, bananas and coffee beans. The highlight of the tour took us up a steep path to the top of Belvedere lookout. The tour guide was very informative and allowed us to stop for plenty of pictures. Amazing panoramic vistas awaited us at Belvedere lookout which included views of Cook’s Bay, Mount Rotui and Opunohu Bay. Overall, the ATV tour was highly enjoyable with just the right amount of adventure. Here are some pictures from the ATV Tour:
