Could never have imagined how great this would be. The scooters were so much fun. Loved that there were only 6 people on the tour and we had 2 guides. They showed us and taught us so much. The scooters allowed us to see so much, be able to talk to each other and have an amazing time. The pictures and videos are suvh a bonus. Love Love Love

Trip Cancelled

David_B, Apr 2026
Trip got cancelled which is fine understand safety but we weren’t told until after we left our pickup and were driven 15m to another resort on a small boat. It would have been nice as this was 10:15 to know this before and had some time to replan our day.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you for your feedback. We understand your disappointment and sincerely regret this last-minute cancellation. However, for safety reasons, we always prefer to visit the site in person to assess the actual conditions before bringing customers there. Safety remains our top priority, and we never take any risks when conditions are not suitable, even if it means taking guests back to their hotel after we’ve already picked them up. Weather conditions in Polynesia change very quickly and sometimes abruptly; it is better to turn back than to take risks, which we refuse to do for our customers. We hope to welcome you next time under better weather conditions. Have a great rest of your vacation.

Fun under the sea

Charisse_S, Jan 2026
Ben and Remy made this an exceptional tour! The underwater scooter is genius. We saw many varieties of fish and sea life. Ben was a great guide. This was the most fun we’ve had on our vacation so far. If you’re afraid to dive but that experience this is for you! It’s a little expensive but totally worth it!

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Great experience- very patient

Crystal_D, Jan 2026
It was a really fun activity and the guides were extremely patient with my nervousness. The actual experience is 30 mins as the rest of the time is to transport you there and back, and also to (soft) pitch you to buy the video & pictures.

A most excellent yellow submarine adventure

Rubia_B, Apr 2025
Super fun and accessible tandem submarine scooter! Move over Cousteau family, our duo of guides — Neven and Remi — took us to an underwater garden of corals and as added bonus a school of two dozen eagle rays. It was totally worth it!

Rebecca_B, Oct 2024
Remy and Remy were fantastic. They were great about explaining the scooter operation and underwater process to ensure everyone was at ease. They took care not to damage the coral and to educate us about some of the marine life. It was an entertaining tour and was a great way to see a lot of colorful fish.

Wonderful experience but customer service needs improvement

ChongHo_Y, Jul 2024
The experience is wonderful. There are many colorful fishes! It is very easy to control the scooter and virtually anyone can do it. But there are two minor drawbacks: 1. The tour guide was late but he didn't call me or text me. 2. It is difficult to understand his accent. But when I asked questions, he replied, "You didn't listen to me."

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Thank you for your comment. We are sorry to hear that you experienced some inconvenience. Pick-ups are sometimes a few minutes late due to navigation conditions and we apologize for this. Our team always attaches great importance to the satisfaction of our customers and our instructors do their utmost to help you appreciate our beautiful lagoon. It is possible that a misunderstanding may have arisen between you but we hope that you nevertheless had a pleasant time. I'm looking forward to seeing you again,

The underwater scooter experience in Bora Bora was truly awesome! My 9-year-old daughter absolutely loved it. The crystal-clear waters and colorful marine life made it a memorable adventure for me and my daughter. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Bora Bora!

Ia Ora Na and thank you for this positive feedback: we are delighted that the underwater experience you liked and your daughter had a great time in our beautiful lagoon! I'm looking forward to seeing you again !

Fantastic Experience

Susannah_T, Jun 2024
Actually being able to drive a scooter while being underwater was fantastic. So easy to do, just press a pedal and steer, and then the ocean life is all around you. Our 3 guides in the morning, Nunu, Benoit, and Tama, really cared about us having a great experience.

Response from Host, Jun 2024

Ia Ora Na Susann, Thank you very much for your positive feedback, we are delighted that you enjoyed this experience on our beautiful lagoon, accompanied by our instructors who are always ready to share their experiences with you.

Awesome

melissa_c, Apr 2024
Boat ride from resort to the diving platform was in itself a great experience, taking in the views. We had a perfect day with clear waters. My husband and I were the only ones scheduled at that time, turned into a private tour! The guides were awesome! Very entertaining and informative. One of the best experiences ever for someone who doesn’t have the opportunity to dive. We purchased a flash drive of several pictures they took during the tour. Would definitely do this again!!!

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Ia Ora Na Melissa, Thank you so much for your warm feedback! We are glad you could enjoy this improvised "private tour" with our team. You are welcome back in our little paradise anytime you want! Best regards from the BOA team

Excellent Adventure

Arnold_T, Nov 2023
Seeing different kinds of fish 10-15 ft underwater without a mask or a snorkel, just the air inside the little tube. Unbelievable technology. One of a kind adventure.

Response from Host, Dec 2023

Ia Orana Arnold, Thank you for your feedback, indeed this is a unique activity to experience. We look forward to welcoming you back for another underwater adventure. Sunny regards from the BOA team

Glad we checked this box!

Chad_k, Sep 2023
Very unique experience at a Bora Bora affordable price. Very glad we did this. It was unique and something we've never seen/done before. I only gave 4 stars because the second passenger doesn't get near the experience as the "driver". My wife was the driver I would suggest paying up for your own scooter if you want the full experience, or take the front seat. Also suggest 2nd passenger bring a snorkel mask or goggles as that could make the experience a little more fun as you look in the water to see all the fish and coral around you. That would provide you a different experience than the driver and it might even be more fun! Glad we checked this box as it was very unique. Remy and Remy were good guides, professional, and knew what they were doing.

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Ia Ora Na Chad, Thank you for your feedback and your suggestions! It is true that the driver's and passenger's experience are not quite the same. However, we are glad you enjoyed your experience and we wish you all the best! The BOA team

Like being in a submarine

Abid_M, Sep 2023
Amazing and fascinating underwater ride through corals and lots of fish. It’s a very different experience than other activities like snorkeling. You are in a submarine basically. And the guides Remi and Nicholas are great. Good people. Explained everything and took care of us. Keep cash if you want to get your pictures and movies.

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Ia Ora Na Abid, Thank you so much for your feedback! Our underwater scooters are indeed unique, and we are glad you enjoyed the ride. Salutations from the BOA team

Wonderful underwater experience

Shobhit_M, Sep 2023
Exactly as advertised! See corals, fishes and much more in the comfort of the scooter, guided by the excellent guide (in scuba gear). The dive takes from a platform in deep ocean. The guide provided will all the detailed information of the dive and driving the scooter. Very easy and simple. Various types of colorful fishes, corals, clams etc that you can see real close. Guide also showed us starfish (pillow), we also took the starfish in hand! Only downside was the the non-availability of a photographer- as he was sick - hence we did not get any pictures of the dive.

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Ia Ora Na, Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to learn you enjoyed your experience with Bora Ocean Adventures! Sorry you did not get the chance to leave with the photos and videos of the tour, but hopefully this experience will be etched in your memory forever! The BOA team

Beautiful

Darian_A, Aug 2023
Absolutely stunning!! Literally nothing bad to say about it. I almost enjoyed this more than actually scuba diving because the fish are everywhere!!

Response from Host, Sep 2023
