(Rode July 2026) The shared airport shuttle from Apia to the airport was slightly late but otherwise a smooth ride. Also communication beforehand to confirm the pick up was largely lacking.

I opted for this transfer from the airport to Apia because of the reviews, and as a solo female traveller will attest that they are legitimate and correct. I booked the outbound trip and then - in a different context - spent a week with an Autobots team, and was so pleased I automatically booked my return trip with them. Reliable, EARLY for the pickup, friendly, welcoming, and safe. Online booking, with cash payment on drop-off.

The tour was great and everything went smoothly. It's an excellent way to see the island if you only have one day, as you get to visit both the south and north coasts. Just keep in mind that you'll need to pay entrance fees at each stop (around 10-20 tala), so bring some cash.

We got to our destination cheaper than a taxi ! Waited around 30 mins after leaving customs not knowing what to look for or where (there was no sign for us) so we had to ask around. We were worried they had forgotten us. The driver also had a very long day and as our ride was an hour to hotel - i kept on talking to him, worried he would fall asleep otherwise.

I got to my hotel okay, but one van filled up and left then I had to wait until everybody from my flight had left the terminal before my van left. That was about an hour after landing.

Service was excellent. The driver was ready when we arrived at 1:30am. Shuttle was spacious with plenty of room. Driver was friendly. Cost was very reasonable for the 3 of us. I recommend this company and would use them again.

Was a great experience getting dropped off to my hotel. Only thing is they didn’t have any change and I wasn’t told, so I had to give a lot more then 23 Tala.

We had a fantastic day with Alice and Gorge in Savaii. This tour was great value for money given the length of tour and ground covered to visit different sites. We saw Alice and Gorge at the airport on our way home and they genuinely interested in what we had doing for the remainder of our holiday. We have to give this tour 10 out of 10 and would recommend it to anyone and would happily do it again ourselves.

We had a great day. Our drivers told us exactly where to meet them just outside the port. They took us around the island and talked to us about the people and culture. We snorkeled to see the giant clams, which was completely unexpected but very cool. Even took us to their favorite clothing store to buy clothes at a more reasonable price. There was a little lack of communication regarding snorkeling gear and cost. If you want to snorkel and see the giant clams, take your own gear. Otherwise it was a great day.

Highly recommend! So glad I stumbled upon the Auto Bots website! Awesome service and love how the driver shared his knowledge and fun facts about Beautiful Samoa!

This was a fantastic day with Alice and driver Learnt so much about Savai’i and Samoa in a humorous and relaxing environment Well worth the cost Recommended for anyone wanting a comprehensive value for money experience

We had an awesome tour with Alice and Junior from Autobots. Alice is very knowledgeable and such a fun character, we had a day of laughter and great sightseeing. Hands down the best value for money day tour to Savaii. Will use them again next trip to Samoa.

Review of: Full-Day Private Excursion of Savai'i

Don and Loata were an amazing and generous team for our tour. Like long lost friends. Super accommodating for unscheduled stops, easy going, and funny as. The blow holes were the highlight of the trip. The later (8am) ferry was suggested to us over the 6am ferry as it was larger, but this led us to not being able to see everything on itinerary (so take note for your tour, or stay overnight). Lots of driving between sites. Fa'afetai mo mea uma Don and Loata!

This is a comprehensive tour of Savai’i and we had a great time with our guide Don. He was extremely knowledgeable at all things Samoa and we learnt so much about the culture while exploring the island. We even managed to spot a humpback whale while at the blowholes. Lava fields were another amazing highlight and a must visit location. It would’ve been good if they spelled out in the description that the individual areas are not paid for by the tour and extra tala is required for these. We went into the tour thinking all we would need is a bit of cash for the market and for meals, however we also had to pay approx $20 tala each at each attraction visited.
