“Aloha 🌺 - We’ve lived in Oahu for a year and weren’t quite sure what to expect on a foodie bike tour in Waikiki, but boy were we happily surprised! We went to places we had never been despite driving by them many times, and were blown away by a fresh perspective from our guide and visiting the area on bike! We’ve already been back to a couple of the places on our tour! Great experience that gets you outside the Waikiki strip but is still super convenient! Highly recommend!” - Reviewed on 2024-11-19

“Wonderful experience for a fun evening - We used Paradise Pedals 6 yrs ago when we had visitors from UK and we had a great time. The same visitors came this year and on asking them if they had any special things they wanted to do their first choice was Paradise Pedals again. We had another great experience this time and Danny (the driver) made it a lot of fun again. We highly recommend this activity if you want a fun evening out!” - Reviewed on 2024-10-13
