Best excursion of my lifetime!

I am a seasoned traveler and I will tell you that this is the best excursion that I have ever had. From the guide dressed in Polynesian wear. To the guide singing with his eukallay to the amazing snorkeling experience Finally to the authentic Polynesian lunch and entertainment that kept you constantly laughing. You would be foolish if you would not take this excursion.

Such a wonderful experience.

Oh what a call experience this was. Not what I was picturing when I booked this, but it turned out to be one our favorite adventures. Between the beautiful drift snorkeling to the lunch (which was so incredibly yummy) where we sat in the water with black tip reef sharks, to the incredible should I say comedy cultural show, to the beautiful vanilla plantation, it was a wonderful day had by all.

Interesting Beaches can be hard to access if not in a resort

Loved it Stayed 4 nights Transport tricky but did manage to hire a car eventually which made beaches easier to access. Did not go on commercial trips. Did our own thing. Central District has a great French Cafe and a very good Carrefor. Friendly welcoming helpful locals. Very impressed and interested in World Heritage Marae but more detailed information would be useful there if you do not visit with a guide.

Have a great day in Raiatea!

Arii was the best guide. We had a great time! The scenery, the water, the show they put on, it was all great. The lunch was also very good especially the fresh grilled fish we took right off the grill. One of the highlights of our tip!

Only excursion you need in Polynesia

This was one of the BEST excursions we went on! I highly recommend. The guides were great, the food was great (they even hand wove our plates for us)! They sang during lunch. We ate lunch in the ocean with fish and sharks swimming by our tables! We went to the vanilla farm (not my favorite), coral garden (beautiful), saw mother and baby dolphins on our way to the Motu for lunch. Just a great day all around. I would bring mosquito repellent for the vanilla farm and motu.

The excursion of our dreams

We were lucky to have our visit with "Tarzan", our favorite guide! We had the opportunity to visit a rum distillery, a pearl farm, eat with our feet in the water, and swim with sharks, finishing with the vanilla plantation. One of the most beautiful excursions we have been able to do! I recommend without any hesitation
