My wife and I are not scuba divers so this was an amazing option. The guides were excellent and tried to ensure that we had interactive time with under water residents that came to visit. I would definitely recommend this experience

This was an amazing experience for us, especially for my mom. Maneau (maybe misspell his name) but he was very patient and took the time to explain the safety procedures and was just an amazing time!

Aqua Safari’s helmet dive was a great way to spend our first excursion on Bora Bora. I was apprehensive about being in the water, and the guides made me feel so comfortable. Arii, Maru and Herve were FANTASTIC! They are professional and experienced. We got to see tons of fish close up even though neither of us know how to scuba dive. Definitely recommend this tour!!

We had a wonderful time on our helmet safari with Nev, Ben, Ari and Merve. It was my first time doing anything like that they put me totally at ease. The viewing was spectacular and very peaceful. I would certainly do it again.

Great way to spend a couple of hours when in Bora Bora. Guides gave great instructions and dive was easier than anticipated.

Terrific experience! Staff were fun and supportive. Underwater location is beautiful with many fish, sand bottom, large corals and a resident playful sting ray. Simple helmets, Easy to do. A 5-year old was with our tour and did very well.

Two days before our tour, they contacted me asking if we were willing to change our time from 8:30 to 10:30. This way we would be more comfortable as we “would be the only guests on board.” I actually preferred the earlier time as we still had jet lag and woke up at 5, but was lured by the “only guests on board” so we agreed to the change. However on the day of our tour, without notice they managed to put in 3 more groups which made up to 9 people. We were the first one to be picked up and had to wait in hot weather for half an hour which wouldn’t have been so bad if it were earlier. I’m fine with a group tour because that was what we paid for, but felt so tricked and very disappointed by their dishonesty.
The tour itself was fun though, especially for kids. We didn’t need to move around much to be surrounded by many fishes and a stingray. Our captain and other guides were very nice and friendly. It’s just sad that this incident during booking turned out to the the only bummer during our amazing Bora Bora trip.

Touching the stingray and the fish all around. Worth it. Waiting for the pictures. Got some great videos on my GoPro.

Amazing experience! Our guides were so kind and patient and helped us understand exactly what we needed to do, how we would be feeling and how to properly communicate once submerged. Getting in and out of the boat is very easy and your guide will help you descend and ascend. They took time to show us different sea life - anemones and such. The pictures speak for themselves … once you’re on the ocean floor you’re literally surrounded by fish. Beautiful and serene. This tour is well worth it. Highly recommend!!
