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.

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!

An amazing day
Absolutely amazing day. So far it’s been the highlight of our 18 day holiday.
Could not fault a thing, was treated like VIPs from the minute we were picked up & everything was way beyond our expectations from
the snorkelling spots to the fantastic lunch on the private Moto. Cam & Mamu (?) were fantastic.
I booked this tour based on the reviews and I’m so glad we did.
Do yourself a favour and take this tour - you will not be disappointed

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.

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.

Best time !!
I booked the 3 hour tour and so glad I did it was so much fun!! We stopped at a few places to snorkel which was cool
The water is so gorgeous 😀
I originally did the 1pm but then it was changed to the 9am one due to the weather and glad I did.
Wish it was sunny to see the colours of the sea better but overall amazing time
Could’ve continued going
Make sure your GoPro is fully charged as well!!!

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.

Great fun!
We received a friendly reception. I loved the cute wetsuit I was asked to wear. It was surprisingly easy to use the sea scooter. A highlight was the orange-fin anemone fish which I have never seen before. I really enjoyed myself. The tour was guided by a marine biologist! The captain has super skills handling the boat. He is very caring and his assistance resulted in me being able to snorkel with great confidence the rest of the holiday. The friendly ray caught up with us at the last stop. I have a great appreciation for beautiful corals and I was suitably impressed with this spot and the excursion. The video quality is excellent.

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
