Highlight of our Moorea visit.
Nothing to add to all the other rave reviews, they have said it all. From hotel pick-up through drop off it was a fantastic morning complete with pictures to tell the story. Can’t think of anything that could have made it better. A highlight of our visit to Moorea.

Papeete - around the island
Our guide Edouard was a few minutes late to pick up our small group, as he had a morning tour, as well. He covered so much with us, especially cultural info re: Tahiti and Papeete. We drove the entire coastline of the island and saw waterfalls, caves / grottos, ma'rae (sacred areas), beaches, the lighthouse outside Papeete. He's well versed, answering all our questions. He's a very good driver! Fun afternoon, very nice group of people

Great opportunity to see Tahiti with a local!
Fabrice was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and passionate about Tahiti. He was very attentive to those on the tour that needed a bit of help getting around. He spoke of his own upbringing and family which really gave us a sense of island life. He bought us a snack of pineapple and grapefruit from a roadside stand and provided water. We had just disembarked from a cruise and he was very accommodating by storing our luggage in the back of the van we traveled in and dropping us at the airport in time for our flight. The tour itself was very interesting, made more so by all the information he provided. He answered all our questions and added extra bits too. We had a total of 5 on the tour ( max is 7) so we were very comfortable and we meshed well with others on the tour. Would highly recommend this tour with Fabrice!

Perfect Tour if You Have Limited Time on the Island and Want a Flavor of Tahiti
Angle was a great guide! It was a very fun trip around the entire island of Tahiti. We had a small group, myself, my wife and two other women. Angel shared lots of information about the island and life on Tahiti as we drove. We made several stops but the best were the last two, Farumai Waterfall and Point Venus. Our arrival at Point Venus was timed perfectly to catch a beautiful sunset. Angel also made a couple impromptu stops so we could watch the surfers. On the way back Angel made restaurant recommendations, dropped a few people off at Roulettes close to their hotels and dropped us off where we were staying. All the people in the group were on the island for only a limited time, so this was a great way to get to know the flavor of Tahiti. Highly recommended the small group size!

Beautiful experience breathtaking scenery
Wonderful experience! If you want a meaningful experience to truly see & experience the culture & see some beautiful places this is the tour for you! I also recommend buying the available lunch option it’s excellent. It’s very ruff and I wouldn’t call it a road maybe a goat trail in sections so hang on.

Highly recommend
What a great informative, fun, and authentic tour, this is how all. Foodie tourism should be done - highlighting and encouraging the existing local tastes, unique cuisine, and popular though casual outlets. Comfortable transport, great views, and knowledgeable chef-led foodie tour. What more could one ask for?

Simply the best! If you only do one thing in Moorea it HAS to be this!
There are not enough words in the dictionary to express how wonderful this tour was! Stefan and his crew went out of their way to make our day unforgettable! The magic began as soon as we left the dock ….the crew shared interesting facts about Moorea and then proceeded to serenade us with their beautiful singing accompanied by the joyful ukulele and bongo drum! The snorkeling was brilliant with stingrays, reef sharks and fish in abundance. The lunch was delicious. The boat very comfortable. There was plenty of time to have multiple snorkeling sessions, some turtle spotting, coconut harvesting and Polynesian craft. I had my 88yr old mother with me and Stefan & his crew (I’m kicking myself I don’t recall the names of his team!) treated her like royalty! The whole day was absolutely brilliant! I will be retuning to Australia and telling everyone if they are visiting Moorea they MUST do this tour! You will not be disappointed I promise you! 10 stars out of 5!!

Perfect snorkel trip
Perfect morning spent seeing the beautiful reefs of Moorea. Our guide Flo was highly knowledgeable and spoke great English and was wonderful with our daughter. Very easy to communicate with the tour operator, who gave us a ride to the boat. We have done snorkel trips in Hawaii and Caribbean and this was the best. The reefs are so vibrant and healthy. And you are nearly guaranteed to see rays and sharks too. Wonderful morning spent on a wonderful boat with wonderful people. Thank you!

Absolutely incredible...
Absolutely incredible experience with the whales. Was able to get in and snorkel up close with a whale and got to see a mom with a calf breach while we were in the water. Our guide was incredible, knowledgable, and a lot of fun.
We also got to see some eagle rays on our way back. I highly recommend booking this tour.

Perfect day!!
Could not have asked for a better day! Our captain Mahai and guide Kevin made the day extremely enjoyable and know exactly how to get as close as possible to the whales. If the weather permits they will get you there. We were lucky enough to get to see a mother whale and her baby extremely close while we were in the water with them it was a breathtaking experience when we would never forget thank you again to our captain and guide.

Once in a lifetime experience
This was so awesome. It was like being in a National Geographic documentary. We got literally feet away from some and spent almost 1/2 hour in one spot observing 2 humpback whales up close.
Some words of caution. These are huge animals! It was quite overwhelming (at least initially) seeing them this close! You also need to be able to swim quickly as the boats can only get with in a few hundred yards and you’ll need to quickly and quietly swim up to them before they leave the area. The guide (Mari) was so patient and kind. We’d definitely do this again
