Top Tahiti Food & Drink Classes

Come hungry to this half-day food tour of Moorea that will let you eat like a local. Your Moorea-born guide will take you to some of the best food joints, where the French, Chinese, and Polynesian influences are strong. See the sights while filling your belly with great food and making new friends on an intimate, small-group tour.

Explore Moorea's lagoon in the traditional way—aboard a Polynesian outrigger canoe—during this full-day excursion. With a small group of 12 travelers or fewer, get plenty of room onboard and attention from the guides. Take in the scenery, go swimming and snorkeling, and arrive at a tiny islet for a cooking lesson (the local dish poisson cru) and a barbecue lunch.

Tahiti offers a vast array of snorkeling opportunities, and one of the most interesting is the wreck of two boats and one plane, known as The Aquarium. You’ll soon discover why as you swim among a colorful display of fish, coral, and other aquatic treasures. You’ll be taken out to the spot by boat, just a ten minute ride offshore, and then get the chance to snorkel for about 70 minutes.

This experience is perfect for lovers of authenticity looking for a unique immersion in Polynesian culture, and it is particularly suitable for families, couples or groups of friends wishing to connect with the simple values of Polynesian life. You will experience a timeless moment, like the Polynesians of ancient times, by immersing yourself in a local's home, far from the tourist trails. You will have the opportunity to meet Hervé, a unique character who sailed to Asia aboard a traditional canoe to prove that his people were great navigators. In addition, you will share a meal prepared with garden and seafood products, which you have harvested yourself. This experience is not for everyone, but for those who truly seek to experience and understand Polynesian culture in its purest essence.
