Esland Bike

Our activity offers guided excursions all around RAIATEA, particularly on the southern part of the island, to help visitors discover the unique charms of HAVAI la Sacrée: the botanical garden, the FAAROA valley, the belvedere, the MARAE TAPUTAPUATEA and many other magnificent sites.


Our experience has enabled us to set up routes that are accessible, without major difficulties and over reasonable distances, punctuated by stops and remarkable viewpoints.

With our VAE outing, customers will discover breathtaking landscapes while enjoying the freedom and ease of getting around by bike (with a little effort, but very accessible).

Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced cyclist, our professional guide will take visitors through routes selected for their beauty and ease of access.


The MARAE, SUNSET or FAAROA itineraries (all guided), will enable you to discover all the facets of RAIATEA’s landscapes (south-east of the island, ascent to the sunset on the west coast or trails in the heart of the FAAROA valley).

Each tour is accompanied by a licensed guide with in-depth knowledge of the island, its sites, its history, its botany… who will follow the group with a trailer to carry water, snacks and visitors’ belongings.

Tours last from 3 to 4 hours (depending on the visitors’ wishes and the breaks taken) and the distance varies from 20km (off-road) to 40km (on-road).


We also offer more challenging outings (mountain biking on trails) to discover unique sites (Mont Privé TAPIOI: exclusive ESLAND BIKE) and forest trails crossing the UTUROA peaks. Outings are organized in small groups of 4 (more on request).


You can also rent a bike for a day (without a guide), with the option of dropping it off at the botanical gardens to reduce pedaling distances.

Numerous options are available, and it’s best to get in touch with us to discuss all the possibilities (pick-up from hotels or marinas), direct rendezvous in the FAAROA area (for customers on private cruises), airport pick-up….

Private (small groups) or VIP outings are also available on request.
