DRIVING TOUR of MOOREA | Part 3 | Belvedere Lookout and Tiki Parc
This video is Part 3 of our driving tour of Mo'orea. Just a short drive through 'Ophunohu Valley, with a quick glimpse of two locations: Belvedere Lookout (with a view of Mt. Rotui, 'Opunohu Bay and Cook's Bay), then driving on to Ranch 'Opunohu where the Tiki Parc is also located. We only walked the first part of the path at the Tiki Parc, so for more information on their family activities including zip line, ropes course, and suspension bridge walk, you can check out their website at: ...or see photos and what others have to say about the Parc on TripAdvisor.com:
For Belvedere Lookout, if you book an ATV tour on Mo'orea, there is no need to rent a car and drive to the lookout on your own, as the ATV Tours make a stop at Belvedere. If you do drive, the parking lot is small and gets full, but we only had to wait a few minutes to get a spot the day we drove there. Have some cash with you if you'd like to get some freshly cut coconut while you're enjoying the view. Also, be sure to bring bug repellent on any adventures that will take you in to the forests in Mo'orea.
Note: There area a lot of mosquitos in the wooded areas such as the Tiki Parc, archaeological site (see my other video), and the walking trail behind the parking lot at Belvedere Lookout, BUT as long as you come prepared with bug repellent you can enjoy the natural beauty without having to make a hasty exit to avoid being bitten. We don't like using the stuff so didn't use any our first day exploring (and we paid the price), so we learned our lesson and used some the rest of the trip and had no issues.
