The Vanilla tour of Taha'a in a comfortable outrigger canoe

7 to 8 hoursFree Cancellation

Our excursion is distinguished by several aspects that are not immediately perceptible. Our visits to pearl and vanilla farms are carefully selected according to hospitality, language and product quality – so far nothing exceptional. But that's not all: The rum we serve on board is distilled in Taha'a by the “PARIPARI” estate, gold medalist at the Paris International Agricultural Show 2026. We provide towels on board. Our boats are managed by a crew of two on long-term contracts, unlike a crew of a pilot hired by the day. We offer swimming in two coral gardens and with sharks. We have lunch on a private motu with the property owner, an island that we have for ourselves, away from the crowds. We send free of charge by e-mail the link to the photo report of the day.

Raiatea Tahaa 1/2 day Coral Garden Snorkeling / Cruise Friendly

shannon_m, Jul 2026

Best experience ever!

Absolutely the best tour we have ever taken through Viator! Tea was fun, professional, knowledgeable and really made sure we were comfortable and safe. At the end of the tour we felt like family. You really cannot get this kind of service and experience anywhere else. This company is 100% amazing! We saw so many amazing fish and coral sea life. We felt like we were swimming/floating in our own private aquarium. Tea and his family went above and beyond and everything was included.

3H Adventure in JET SKI Snorkeling and Tahaa Lagoon

Incredible Jet Ski Adventure in Taha’a!

Booking this jet ski excursion through Viator was hands-down one of the best decisions of our NCL cruise stop in Taha’a. From the moment we hit the water, the views were absolutely breathtaking — crystal-clear turquoise lagoons, vibrant coral reefs visible right beneath us, and Bora Bora’s iconic silhouette in the distance. Our guide was fantastic — knowledgeable, safety-conscious, and clearly passionate about sharing the beauty of the island. He went above and beyond, climbing up to grab us fresh coconuts that we got to eat right there on the water, and showing us how to feed the fish. The pace was perfect: fast and thrilling when we wanted adventure, and slow and scenic when we wanted to soak it all in. The absolute highlight was stopping at the Coral Garden — it was pure magic. Crystal-clear water, colorful fish swimming right up to us, and our guide made the whole experience unforgettable with his knowledge and genuine care for making sure we had the best time possible. Booking through Viator made the whole process seamless — easy coordination with our ship’s schedule and clear meeting instructions right at the port. If you’re cruising through Taha’a, this excursion is an absolute must-do. Worth every penny and one of the highlights of our entire South Pacific trip!

Excellent Excursion of Tahaa

This is an excellent excursion. We were able to see and enjoy the highlights of Taha’a. The tour provider was responsive to messages prior to the trip. We arrived by cruise ship and it was easy to find the operator. All of the stops are beautiful and there is enough time to enjoy each of them without feeling rushed. I definitely recommend this excursion.

Raiatea to Taha’a drift

Great 1/2 day from Raiatea. The boat left on time and took about 40min to get to the site. We did the snorkel twice. The guide was very good. No need for flippers just reef shoes. We took our own mask and snorkel but they have them if you don’t. We had bananas and cake on the boat after.

The Vanilla tour of Taha'a in a comfortable outrigger canoe

Michelle_B, Jun 2026

5 stars!

This was such an excellent tour. We went on 3 different but similar tours while in FP. What we loved about this one was the small group, the tours to the pearl farm, rum distillery, and vanilla farm. They were all very interesting. The snorkeling is a given...so beautiful in all of FP. But Jimmy is the star of the show. His love for nature without spoil was endearing and appreciated. No silly fluff. We did that on another tour and it is fun once but we really enjoyed the relaxed nature of the trip. We cruised around the island of Tahaa (in a very comfortable boat!) and even stopped for the best traditional buffet we had on any of our tours. Thank you for a perfect day Jimmy. 🌸

Flight of a lifetime

I’ve travelled all my life and done many adventurous things but this was by far the best. The pick up vehicle leaves a lot to be desired but the three guys George x 2 and Jeremy were great. The views were spectacular and were so beautiful they brought tears to my eyes. Don’t even think about it, just book it

Best island experience

Excellent day on the water with our tuna fisherman guide. He was amazing! He educated us on the culture and history of the islands. Most beautiful scenery, crystal clear water with sea life caught in action. Took us out of the way to see manta rays, stingrays, tortoises, and eagle rays. Genuinely a great guy! Pearl farm experience was very informative.

Excellent snorkel trip and wonderful experience.

Excellent guide well prepared with rain jackets for us all. Stopped at a pearl farm which was educational. Did a drift snorkel which was wonderful. Strong current but with a guide in front and in the back everyone did great. They showed us various types of coral and fish. Small group of 5 made for a great experience.
