Papeete with Pauline

Jim_S, Oct 2025

We thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour with Pauline. She shared so much history and data for the people of French Polynesia and how it came to be. Papeete is a bustling city but we got to visit the quite serene walking areas of government buildings, such as the queens baths etc. We also wandered the market and she shared the local products and a vendor gave us a sample. She answered questions we had, shared maps and used a well done iPad power point to assist. We were lucky to have a tour of just us. Highly recommend.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Dear Jim, thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! 🌺 I’m truly happy you enjoyed discovering Papeete’s hidden gems and history with me — and that you appreciated the mix of stories, local encounters, and little surprises along the way. It was such a pleasure to guide you both through the heart of the city. Mauruuru roa for your kind words and recommendation! 🙏✨

Pauline was fabulous. We learned a great deal about French Polynesia it's history and the islands. Papeete was fascinating. The city is not only a great shopping spot, but also the home to beautiful parks, flowers and wildlife. The Marche is tremendous. We truly enjoyed this tour. A must do in Pspeete.

This was a great tour....

Mark_D, Jan 2025

This was a great tour. The guide Pauline was very knowledgeable about the history of Tahiti and the city of Papeete. She used her tablet to show us many photos and explain many sights. And she spoke excellent English.
