What a great experience!...

Adrian_B, Sep 2025

What a great experience! My wife & I weren’t sure whether to join a group or go private but private was the right way to go. This allowed us to spend as much time as possible with the whales and less risk of a large crowd scaring them away. The crew were great, in the knowledge they shared, their hospitality and their respect towards the marine life. We felt well taken care of. For those on a honeymoon or those who really appreciate enjoying nature with no crowds, this is the way to swim with the whales. We would do this again.

Mauruuru Adrian for allowing us to show you a great time and share with you our lifestyle and culture. We hope you and wife enjoyed yourselves in Moorea. We hope to see you again in future ventures to Moorea. Mauruuru

Magical experience that was highlight of our trip

This had to be one of the most amazing experiences of my life. When the whales swam towards us I had tears in my eyes. Teoni is the best guide you can find, knowledgeable, patient, experienced with a good eye almost spotting whales far away. He even dragged us in water when we were having difficulty swimming for the last bit. I would come back and book this again for the magic moments with whales.

Mauruuru Vera for sharing your experience. Thank you for trusting us to show you these magnificent mammals in their habitat. Enjoy your stay and hope to see you in one of our future tours. Mauruuru

Snorkeling with whales

Very nice accommodating crew. Weather was overcast, rainy at times and very windy which made for large swells which caused difficulty seeing over the waves. They gave us rain gear to help stay warm. They did their best to get us up close to the whales and we did get within 50 yards of them. Also were able to get good pictures from the boat at the end of the tour. I think it would have been more successful if the weather had been better. Crew was great and recommend them.

Thank you Melinda for sharing your experience with us. Yes Mother Nature was little rough with us that day but you all handled it like warriors. Mauruuru roa.

Magical Experience

Juan_R, Jul 2025

We had an unforgettable experience on our whale watching tour in Mo’orea! Our guide, Teoni, and captain, Julien, were both outstanding. Teoni was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive, making sure our entire family felt safe and comfortable in the water. Thanks to their expertise, we were lucky enough to witness a humpback whale breaching and even heard it sing—it was truly magical. We also had the chance to swim alongside eagle rays and sea turtles, which made the day even more special. This tour exceeded all of our expectations and will be a memory we will treasure forever. Highly recommend them!

Our tour was AMAZING. Teoni communicated with us throughout the experience and was so friendly and fun. He and his captain were very knowledgeable and found the whales very easily. I would absolutely recommend Aimeho Tours for a private whale excursion.
