QueenPam Posted May 11, 2009 #28 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Hey everyone! Do you happen to remember the name of the tour company for this excursion? I want to book it but it's completely booked on RCCL and I fear I won't be able to book it on the ship either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kclvt Posted May 11, 2009 #29 Share Posted May 11, 2009 No I don't remember their name. We booked through RCCL. I don't think they take any reservations privately. When we were there in March they were just starting out and only had 7 cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueenPam Posted May 11, 2009 #30 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Oh ok :( I wish I could have done this excursion! Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaggyofwv Posted May 17, 2009 #31 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I wanted to do this excursion on our upcoming Explorer cruise, but it appears to be sold out already. Looks like a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trixietx Posted May 18, 2009 #32 Share Posted May 18, 2009 We did this tour last week and it was so much fun and a great way to see the island. We booked it through RCCL. They only have 7 cars and do two tours a day, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauibeach Posted November 14, 2009 #33 Share Posted November 14, 2009 We went on this excursion in June 2009 thru RC website. We were the first tour of the day and there weren't enough cars for our group. They wanted my husband on a junky yellow 4 wheeler but since he picked this excursion (and we have a nice Polaris 4 wheeler at home) I let him have the car and I took the 4 wheeler. That was a mess itself, automatic (I didn't know how to shift, but I figured it out) and it kept getting stuck in 3rd gear-keep in mind you are sharing the highways with cars and large trucks as well as going over mountains and around curves! So hubby is just over 6 foot tall and weighs about 195, we have two boys about 11. Since I got the 4 wheeler, my one son had to ride with a stranger (woman, no less) that ended up being very nice to him. Hubby fit ok in the car BUT the car has toubles getting up the big hills and the tour guide had to push him and several others up with their 4 wheelers. What a mess. We stopped at several nice beachy locations, including a few beaches and was able to swim and get a free drink (very loaded with alcohol) then I was to get back behind the wheel, I mean handle bars of my 4 wheeler! The boys were offered nothing to drink. All in all, the sights were great. The island (minus the trash) was beautiful. The tour eeh. Our tour guy also got in a verbal fight with a man in a car that tried to run him over... I would probably pick another vehicle to tour the island. RC should review a little more to see if the standards of each tour are still top notch- or NOT! Also, we were packed 2 per car. You have to follow in line while driving on the road and everywhere you go. No venturing off on your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welove2cruisedou Posted February 10, 2010 #34 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Thanks for posting your pics of the Scoot Coupe cars. I am really hoping that this tour wont be booked up,for my cruise on Oasis in May. It looks like it is alot of fun. Are the steering wheels hard to steer or is it pretty easy? Thanks all for posting your reviews on this tour!!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richabot Posted March 1, 2010 #35 Share Posted March 1, 2010 My wife and I did the Scoot Coupes on Feb 3, booked from our Celebrity Cruise. We loved it. Sorry to hear about mauibeach's bad experience. The cars were running great, in good condition, and everyone in our group had a wonderful time. Here's a 2-minute video showing the highlights: http://www.youtube.com/richardjcaudle#p/a/u/0/YIK6ffMSToU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richabot Posted March 1, 2010 #36 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I forgot to answer the previous question. They have handlebars and are very easy to steer. The throttle is like a scooter or motorcycle and they are automatic so no shifting gears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katy cruisin' Posted April 19, 2010 #38 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Just wondering how fast these scooters go?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houlacruiser Posted April 27, 2010 #39 Share Posted April 27, 2010 They go around 30-35 mph. I wonder why my link that I posted above doesn't work anymore? :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algorithmannie Posted August 13, 2010 #40 Share Posted August 13, 2010 We did this tour last Winter... it was SO FUN! One of the best tours we've ever done. The guides were really fun and very daring! They rode on 4-wheelers and darted in and out of traffic. We stayed on the road but went really fast! We also made a few stops. I have a full review and pics on my blog, the link is below. Highly recommended tour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandinmypants Posted August 28, 2010 #41 Share Posted August 28, 2010 We were really hoping to do this excursion on our 11/7 RCCL cruise, but it appears to be booked already - so disappointed! They should perhaps look into expanding..... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvstwocruise Posted May 6, 2011 #42 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Ok, everyone is saying what a great tour...what was so great? You were in the lil cars on the city road in a line? Then what, did you drive on the beaches, in the sand? I think Im missing a major part of this...I think my kids would like this but I dont have all the facts. Thanks for the scoop.

gtaylor Posted August 1, 2015 #44 Share Posted August 1, 2015 swimgirl, The last person (who went on the excursion) to post in this thread was in 2010. This may be the same current excursion discussed over here. gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
