Special connections!
Mary Jane our guide is an excellent cultural ambassador for Tahiti. We highly recommend her tour. She took us to major sites, providing lots of information about each. She even took us to her Mother's home for delicious banana crepes, a d is a descendants of the authors of the book Mutiny on the Bounty! This is the perfect tour if you only have one day.

Great introduction to Tahiti!
We throughly enjoyed this trip and went all the way around the big Tahiti island. Our guide was Antionette who was great fun and extremely knowledgeable. Lots of stops at sights. Added extras - fruit and banana bread delicious. Loved the small group - only 6 of us. Thoroughly recommend and all admin re trip and pick up very easy.

Very informative tour
Fantastic and informative tour. Mary-Jeanne was so sweet and told so much of the Tahitian History. The van was very comfortable and the AC worked great. Our visit happened to be when there was dangerous flooding on the opposite side of the island which prevented us from seeing the 3 waterfalls although we did see other waterfalls on our drive. The fresh croissant snack was delicious.

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?

INCREDIBLE MOST BEAUTIFUL private snorkel cruise - MUST DO if you want to be away from crowds/ cruise tours
This was the most incredible day, if you want to see the beauty of Moorea from a catamaran, privately, away from other tourists, and this is the cruise for you. Beyond phenomenal, we were able to sail ( not motor) out to our first snorkeling spot where we were able to swim with sharks, yes, they are safe, and stingray. Our next stop was amazing and my favorite out amongst the coral garden. Our tour guide was very caring as he spoke lovingly about the coral and how to preserve it and keep it alive and beautiful. The colors were amazing. I had no idea that there were coral that were purple and blue and the fish, I’ve never seen so many species in one place. It was beyond beautiful, our last snorkel spot was to look and learn about the underwater volcanic stone statues created in 1998 by artist Tihoti Guy. Simple beautiful. Having a day on the water with these great guys ( Henri- Luca and our guide ❤️) I will remember with joy this experience the rest ouf my life . MUST DO

Our Favourite location on the Planet
We took this tour from a cruise ship. The communication and organisation was excellent in the lead up. The meeting point was easy to find once we arrived on the pier via tender. Our unforgettable day commenced when we were introduced to our captain Moana who was personal, knowledgeable and highly entertaining. The day was full of Polynesian culture and hospitality with multiple opportunities for snorkeling that was outstanding with rays, reef sharks, turtles and an abundance of sea life. You will not go hungry with a delicious lunch accompanied by a selection of beverages. While eating lunch you will be entertained with some beautiful singing and ukulele playing. Whilst we didn’t want the day to end Moana had us dropped back at the pier in time for us to board our tender. This is a must do tour on your visit to Moorea. Easily 5++++++++ Stars

Edouard — Formidable!!! Do not miss this exceptional opportunity!
We absolutely loved our extensive tour around the island! Our tour guide, Edward, was extremely knowledgeable about the area and history of the island! The rainstorm made the waterfalls even more spectacular! We loved it! We highly recommend Edward and the tour!

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
