★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 171 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $235

Ride a high-end mountain bike across historic Anna Ranch with a professional guide, climbing past streams, lava rock, and tropical plants toward views of Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, and Hualalai. The two-hour private outing includes a helmet, drinks, snacks, and rain gear if needed.

“We had a great tour guide, Jeremy who was super patient and knowledgeable. The ride was very challenging even with the e-bikes but then again, I've never been mountain biking before. Others in the group had a much easier time then me. The bikes were high quality and very expensive with great suspension to cushion the ride. We booked on Viator which said to get there at 8:30am but everyone else who booked directly with Big Island Bike Rentals were told to get there at 9am so that was frustrating.”
