Do this tour !!
This was a special experience that included about 6 hours out on the lagoon including the lunch stop , and then 2 hours on the 4WD . The guides Manu and Ari made the day , their singing , their stories and their focus on making sure everyone had a good time made the day very special, spending time in the water with the rays and baby sharks was a big highlight. If you want a tour that captures authentic Polynesian hospitality, food and care for the ocean environment book these guys

Still the best!
The team at Lagoon Service is amazing...friendly, fun, engaged and welcoming. We loved this tour so much last year, we came again this year. We loved our captain/guide Temo ❤️ ...such a joyful and friendly guide. He kept as laughing and comfortable throughout the day. Excellent time petting stingrays, swimming with sharks and cruising (snorkeling) through Coral Garden to see all the tropical fish and wildly colorful clams. And honestly, the picnic lunch is amazing. We loved the food and the family atmosphere. We will always take this tour if we make it make to Bora Bora. Māuruuru, Temo, and the team at Lagoon Service!

An easy 3-4 hour excursion
We took the afternoon tour the day after it rained. Our group of 7 (including the captain) stopped by three spots around the island, to see manta rays in the nearby underwater canyon, the coral garden, and eagle rays. Unfortunately only saw one lone eagle ray after quite a few minutes to boating around searching. The captain spoke in both French and English and explained well what we were doing. He was mindful of the less experienced swimmers in the group which was very thoughtful and needed. Overall had a great time.

No nonsense, just spectacular snorkeling
Not a lot of frills, but you won’t miss them because the snorkeling is so good. I’ve been on snorkel cruises on catamarans with 30 or more guests, where you all end up in a tight crowd of life jackets and flippers, fighting to glimpse a few parrotfish or a lone sea turtle. This tour is on a small boat with maybe 10-ish people max, so you have plenty of elbow room in the water to make your own way (and no cumbersome life jacket required). The two locations are unbeatable — a close encounter with dozens of sharks and rays, followed by a meander through a coral labyrinth of more colorful lagoon-dwelling species than I could count. Absolutely spectacular. On the boat between the two spots, we circled some spinner dolphins jumping in the surf. And later our diver and guide serenaded us with ukulele and singing before the return trip.

Top trip
It really was the most beautiful tour I've had in recent years. The two brothers were extraordinary indeed—young people with a spirit of life, not just out for money. Respect to the two of them. Everything was beyond expectations; I recommend them with confidence.

Best Snorkeling Ever
First, our capitan and guide Aro was fantastic. Aro made the experience. Without him it would not had been as wonderful as it was. My wife’s number 1 fear, sharks. Aro made us both feel at ease reminding us that the only scary thing in the lagoon was him! His lighthearted friendly demeanor was infectious. Not to mention the sea life we saw and his guided coral garden tour was one of a kind! This was the best snorkeling excursions I had ever been on! 100/10! We will be back!!

Absolutely Incredible ATV Tour with Mana!
We had an amazing ATV tour around the main island, and the highlight was definitely our guide, Mana. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience fun from start to finish. The views were stunning, and Mana shared great local insights while making sure everyone felt safe and comfortable. His energy and passion for the island made the tour unforgettable. Highly recommend this tour, and if you get Mana as your guide, you're in for a fantastic experience!

Amazing Experience Around the Island
Amazing tour around the island with beautiful photo stops and breathtaking views of Mount Otemanu. We also visited local shops selling handmade Polynesian crafts and souvenirs. Another highlight was seeing the American World War II monuments along the way. Our guide was fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience even more enjoyable. A perfect way to experience the island’s natural beauty, culture, and history. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend!
Excellent tour. Our guide Noe was so informative and helpful. We learned a lot from Noe. We saw plenty of colorful fish, coral, and the highlight: a huge manta ray which followed us for several minutes. You won’t be disappointed if you take this tour.

Best tour!
I was impressed from start to finish. Prompt in picking me up, explained the entire process, knowledgeable and put us all at ease. The helmet was easy to wear and the guide was with us the entire time. Took pics of us individually which we were able to purchase. I would highly recommend!

Amazing private tour!
It was great! We got picked up from the hotel and hit all the main spots. We managed to swim with tiger rays, sting rays, manta rays, sharks and many fishes. The snorkeling in the corals was the easiest in my life. You just float and enjoy the beautiful fishes. My wife was pregnant and our guide was extremely careful while driving and he drove her very close to all the animals so she didn’t have to swim that much. He was very kind and thoughtful towards her.

Outstanding Tour
Our captain stopped at so many places, and gave us a tour around the Island. Last stop was a Motu for fresh fruit before taking us to the main island where he had a taxi waiting for us (no additional charges). We swam with Manta Rays, stopped to see the dolphins, swam with eagle rays, then the shark stop. Last was the coral garden, best in Bora Bora. We did two other excursions in Bora Bora and neither were as good as this tour. Really got our money's worth.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Bora Bora’s powder-soft beaches and swaying palms may be idyllic, but nothing quite rivals the splendor of its underwater world. From its turquoise lagoons to its lush reefs—home to tropical fish and colorful coral—the island boasts a wonderland of aquatic discovery. Bora Bora snorkeling tours offer the most direct way to explore without the complex equipment or certifications necessary for scuba dives. Embark on an aqua safari, get up close (but not too close) to resident sharks and stingrays, or book a private tour for a fully personalized (and romantic) experience.
