We loved our snorkeling tour in Moʻorea! The whole experience from start to finish was amazing. From the guides, to learning more about Tahiti/Moʻorea, the food, and everything in between. If you are ever in Moʻorea I cannot recommend this experience more. It was definitely the highlight of our trip. We were all saying that we would love to do it again when we come back :)

I cannot begin to express my appreciation for this tour and company. I was unaware that the pick up was only for 2+ people and they were very kind and agreed to pick me up even though it was only me which just made me feel more comfortable as a solo traveler on her first international solo trip. Seriously so grateful. The tour itself was incredible. Wilfred was exceptional. Friendly, funny, very social and inclusive. He made us feel like a small family. I kissed a stingray, swam with sharks, ate raw fish for the first time in 20 years and it was amazing. They also had a full barbecue if the poisson cru was not your thing (but try it. It was stellar and I’m NOT a fish person). We tried fresh shaved coconut, coconut water, and fresh squeezed coconut milk. Watched the poisson cru get prepared. Learned about herbs and how to make hats out of palms and how to tie a sarong. Wilfred also actively ensured everyone had great photos and was having fun. He was very kind and attentive. Not to mention the best driver I’ve ever seen. He was able to entertain, manage the boat, and play ukulele. I was fully ready to walk and or have to find my own taxi home but they already had the service waiting for us when we docked. The driver also dropped me off first so I could catch the 3:25pm ferry and not wait for the later one. Again, so grateful for the service. The trip was beautiful, well planned, and just overall breathtaking. Thank you so much for the best tour I’ve been on during my trip. Definitely a can’t miss tour! I left with great memories, lots of photos, and a very cool palm hat. Thank you x100000000

Moorea relaxed and educational

Melissa_R, Aug 2026
I had a wonderful snorkel experience with this tour and our humorous guide. Beautiful day, lots of coral, fish, sting rays and tiny sharks. The fresh tuna made with sea salt and lime was amazing! I love the hat he made me out of traditional palm leaves and who knew the appropriate way to open a coconut with a stick! Also met new friends on the 6 hour boat trip together. Highly recommend!

Best Things We Did in Tahiti

Eric_M, Aug 2026
We have traveled a lot and Tahiti just wasn't my favorite trip overall, however this was what we liked the most about it. It is amazing swimming with the sharks and stingrays. If you do anything at all on your trip here do this!

Andrea_U, Aug 2026
If I had one day in Moorea this is how I would spend it. Best homemade rum punch & custom palm leaf hat by our tour guide Wilfred! He even gave us tips how to dry the hat so we could bring it back to the US (it worked!). Very thorough and thoughtful trip. It was a great way to spend time and explore Moorea!!!

This was a phenomenal...

Lauren_D, Jul 2026
This was a phenomenal experience I cannot recommend this enough. Starting with being picked up in cool boats. We had live music- singing, playing ukulele, and drumming. The driver picked up coconuts as we rode around the island. Amazing views. We got to pet a string ray and swim with sharks. It was wonderful. Then we had lunch on the beach. He made fresh poisson cru (ceviche). He showed us how to open the coconut, we drank the water, then we used the coconut as a bowl to eat from. The food was delicious. We had a tasty lunch of chicken, fish, curry rice, taro, and more! Then he showed us how to make hats and we learned about plants. It was really an incredible day! One of the best tours I've ever experienced.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Māuruuru for your wonderful review! 🌺 We're so happy you enjoyed every part of the experience, from the lagoon and the music to the beach lunch and Polynesian traditions. It was a pleasure sharing our island with you, and we hope to welcome you back to Moorea one day!

This tour is was great!...

Gina_S, Jul 2026
This tour is was great! We got picked up from the Sofitel and was taken to the dock to meet up with the group. We had 11 people but plenty of room for everyone. A great way to start our stay at Moorea by seeing the island from the water. The stops for snorkeling were fun, got to see black tip sharks and stingrays. Wilfred was entertaining, knowledgeable and loved sharing the French Polynesian culture. He made banana leaf hats for the ladies, had a nice lunch on the moth, and some cultural lessons along the way. Definitely recommend!

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Mauruuru for sharing your experience! We are glad you enjoyed a true Polynesian day on the lagoon with Wilfred and our team. We look forward to seeing you again in Moorea! 🌺

Great Excursion

Amy_K, Jul 2026
Great Excursion! We took this excursion after arriving by cruise ship. The provider was easy to find at the pier. It was a great day filled with snorkeling with rays, sharks, and lots of fish. We enjoyed the presentations of preparing authentic Polynesian food and how to harvest a coconut.

Snorkeling, Lunch & Culture

Ray_M, Jun 2026
Moorea was by far the best Coral Reef of the 4 Polynesian Islands we visited, snorkling with black tip sharks and sting rays was very cool too then we stopped at a local Island for lunch and our guide shared some Polynesian culture with us, we had a good lunch consisting of raw tuna salad made fresh in front of us called Poisson Cru, followed by lunch that's was very good

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re delighted you enjoyed the tour ! It’s great to hear you also enjoyed the freshly prepared Poisson Cru and lunch on the motu. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back to Moorea in the future! Mauruuru roa

Tahiti‘s best boat, snorkel, swim and picnic tour

Mike_H, Jun 2026
This is a great 1 day experience. You‘ll snorkel on a shallow reef alongside blacktip sharks and southern stingrays. Lots of other colored fish including picasso trigerfish, blue chromis, and bluefin tuna. You‘ll hear about the local Polynesian history, watch ceviche being made fresh on the beach, learn to husk a coconut, have a delicious lunch, and so much more. The guided outrigger boat tours comfortably hold 12 guests. This trip is a great once in a life time event and the value is outstanding. I would do this trip again in a heartbeat. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and overall great too.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you very much for your kind review! We’re delighted you enjoyed the snorkeling, activities, and time with our team. Your feedback means a lot to us. We hope to welcome you back to Moorea again!

Great Snorkeling and Motu Lunch

Robert_S, Jun 2026
We booked this tour for our vacation in Moorea towards mid-June 2026. Wilfred was great as our guide and boat captain. At one stop, he helped us to pet a stingray and showed us to be calm in the water with blacktip sharks.He didn't just help us enjoy our water/snorkeling activities, but he also showed us so much about French Polynesian culture too. We stopped later at a motu, where Wilfred helped to prepare lunch and provided entertainment. He played the ukulele and drum for us, showed us how to cook poisson cru, taught us to split open a coconut for its milk, and he taught us how to use a pareo (sarong) for different outfits. He made palm leaf hats for the tour group and explained how to preserve them and bring them home. We still have ours. He ensured that the whole tour group could participate. He did all of it with an infectious smile and a great sense of humor. He also focused on ensuring that we were able to have photographs of ourselves watching or participating in all the activities of the tour. This was a great tour.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you so much for this amazing review 🌺 We’re truly happy to hear you had such a memorable experience with Wilfred. It’s wonderful that you enjoyed both the marine life encounters and the cultural activities on the motu. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with him. We hope to welcome you back to Moorea again!!

My wife and I had a great time on this excursion. Swimming with the sharks and rays was really fun! My wife said before we got there she wasn't going to get in the water but changed her mind once we got there and had a great time. And then the lunch....wow! Best meal I had on Moorea!!!!

A perfect day on Moorea with our guide Nolte (aka Bruno Mars)

Jaron_M, Jun 2026
I’ve done a similar tour before and this was at least as good. I’d happily book with Moorea Miti Tours again tomorrow. Nolte, our guide, (like Nick Nolte,) has a great deadpan delivery for his jokes, and he was super friendly. The time on the sandbar with the sharks and the rays was enjoyable and we did pay the local photographer with her waterproof camera for underwater pictures with the stingrays. The time snorkeling between the two motus was excellent as expected. The fresh poison cru was perfectly balanced with lime, salt, and freshly squeezed coconut milk. The other picnic food was also a solid meal. Lastly, the discussion of local flora, and the uses there of for medicinal purposes was quite interesting, as was the demonstration of different ways to wear the sarong/pareu. One gentleman commented, “I guess we don’t need to buy dresses ever again!” since the lady was able to demonstrate one sarong could be worn in dozens of ways.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you so much for your kind review! We're delighted you enjoyed the tour, the snorkeling, the lagoon experience, and our traditional picnic. Nolte will be happy to hear your compliments! We hope to welcome you back to Moorea for another adventure soon. Mauruuru roa🌺
