Provider never stopped by our hotel to pick us up so we never got to go on the tour. We contacted the provider who claimed they had mechanical issues. They did provide a refund, however with limited time in Tahiti, this was a missed opportunity.

Wonderful personalised tour from a passionate and informative host. Able to visit "The Aquarium" and get personal with Stingrays. Highly recommended.

We had a great experience. We loved the snorkelling where we saw an old plane wreck, heaps of fish and coral and later some beautiful turtles. Hanging with the stingrays was excellent and the traditional raw fish meal made by Tapu was delicious too!!

Swimming with the turtles 🐢 was fabulous, although we were not able to get pictures. And the reefs are FULL of colorful fish 🐠 of various sizes! Definitely a must do!

Each member of the tour team was polite, gracious and accommodating. I was impressed that they offered to pick us up at the cruise terminal as we were prepared to do the 5 minute walk to the marina. There was an initial mix up because I did not understand they were picking us up in a boat! I was looking for someone holding a sign on the dock, not in the water.
We visited 3 snorkel sites - each different. The first was called the Turtle Sanctuary near the coral reef. The second was in the lagoon to view two ship wrecks and a plane wreck. The last was a sand bar frequented by sting rays.
We are not strong swimmers, and the distances presented at the first two sites were beyond our capabilities. But, without hesitation, the captain described how he would help us get “there and back” comfortably and safely - and he did!
The yellow tuna ceviche with coconut rice lunch was freshly made onboard by the captain and delicious. We paired it with local cold beer that was included in our ticket.
At the end of the excursion we were delivered to the dock directly adjacent to our ship. It was a perfect ending to a perfect morning.

The Boat Captain was very great. He took us to 3 different spots. We saw many spinning dolphins. These cute guys were very near and jumped and spinnied like I've never seen before. Then, we snorkled and so 2 Stingrays from a very close proximities. Had a great time. Highly recommend.

Wonderful day! Our Captain, Moana, was excellent! He was so friendly and made sure we got to see turtles. All of the 3 snorkeling stops were great and the food was amazing! Can't thank Moana enough. Highly recommend this tour.
