We had such a fantastic experience with 808 eVentures today, thanks to the owner and our guide Ryan! He’s not only knowledgeable, but also incredibly personable—his enthusiasm and warmth added so much to the ride.
One of the most unique aspects of the tour was the connected helmets. Being able to communicate while riding completely changed the dynamic of the experience. Instead of stopping frequently to regroup, we could enjoy the ride in real time, ask questions on the go, and hear Ryan’s insights seamlessly. It made the whole adventure both more enjoyable and more informative.
The e-bikes themselves opened up a wide variety of opportunities. We could cover more ground effortlessly, explore different routes, and enjoy sights that we might have missed otherwise. The balance of activity and ease made it perfect for everyone in our group.
We also really appreciated how smooth and accommodating the process was. Ryan and the 808eVentures team went above and beyond to make everything simple, including helping us secure a last-minute reservation. That kind of customer service makes a huge difference, and it certainly stood out here.
All in all, this was an outstanding experience—well-organized, fun, and memorable. If you’re looking for a ebike tour that blends adventure with thoughtful touches and genuine hospitality, I can’t recommend Ryan and...
Read moreRyan was fantastic! He shared some of O'ahu's hot spots, cool vibes and rich history with us along the way to and from the tail head. He literally went out of his way to make the whole experience more memorable with added bonus stops and photo ops. As long as I live, I will not forget the beautiful Brazilian Cardinals, the needlefish frenzy, a flying mongoose, and the elusive two-legged air-breathing eels we got to see(make sure to ask), in addition to the breathtaking views that Diamond Head offers. He even pointed out the whales playing in the surf that everyone else had overlooked. If you've been thinking about taking the trail to the top of Diamond Head, I can assure you, there is no better path than with Ryan and 808 eVentures. We are so grateful for his great attitude and the entire experience. If you haven't booked with him yet, and you've read this far, then look no further! Most people opt for the morning hike to avoid the afternoon heat, but I strongly recommend the afternoon tour because the trail is less crowded and you will get more out of it...

Read moreThis was an awesome tour!! I appreciated the advanced communication via text and email the day before, which helped me feel fully prepared.
I was a bit nervous about the trip since I am not too experienced with riding a bike in a city. But Ryan clearly went over how to ride the e-bike, and took me on a practice ride around the block so I could get used to it. He stopped at some sites along our ride which I didn’t expect, and explained some history and gave some valuable context. He also is an expert about Waikiki in general and could answer all my one-off questions well. I felt comfortable throughout my ride, even though we did need to drive alongside some traffic to get out and into the city.
The hike was less difficult than I expected, although there were some slippery spots. I appreciated how he came prepared with bug spray to share! The poke spot that we stopped at for lunch felt extra special and was delicious!
Overall, it was a pleasure spending a half day on Ryan’s tour, I learned a lot, and feel like I saw a lot of the island in...
