Guided tour of the island of Tahaa with Revanui Excursions
Description
Our excursion stands out for its large and spacious boat. A young, cheerful and dynamic team. Snorkelling in the coral garden remains a nugget, several shades of color and a lot of fish. But the big difference is lunch on our private motu. A tropical setting full of resources. On the program, the discovery of the island of Tahaa, immersed in the greenery and surrounded by "motu", islets settled on the sea fills with coconut trees. We will meet the island's suppliers and the creations they offer based on local products such as vanilla, pearl, honey, sugar cane, tamanu, alcohol... A cooler with refreshments (local fruit juices and water bottles) is available for guests. You can also bring your own drinks and snacks. You won't regret it!

Great team. Great experience. I highly recommend this tour. Mauruuru.
Everything was perfect. Beautiful, very pleasant visits. The crew was very kind. Snorkeling was great. I highly recommend it
Well organized tour and considerate guide. She was very caring of all travelers especially elderly. Suited for all ages.
Expect fabulous snorkeling, a great crew, we had Michael and his wife, fabulous tour company that does a great job. The meal on the motu was wonderful.
This is an excellent excursion. We were able to see and enjoy the highlights of Taha’a. The tour provider was responsive to messages prior to the trip. We arrived by cruise ship and it was easy to find the operator. All of the stops are beautiful and there is enough time to enjoy each of them without feeling rushed. I definitely recommend this excursion.
What a beautiful day we had. The visits were super interesting, and what can I say about the breathtaking landscapes? Snorkeling in the coral garden was a big wow. The delicious dinner on a private motu in a paradise setting. In short, it was a perfect day.
Tour was everything that was offered in booking. Boat, snorkeling, food , entertainment, guides were great
This tour was excellent and the group size was just right. The water for snorkelling was crystal clear with plenty of fish to seas then topped off with time on the private Island for lunch was perfect. Would recommend this for family and friend groups if all ages.
Phenomenal! We did this as an excursion on our cruise stop in Raiatea. We were picked up in the cruise tender port, so it was very easy to find. We stopped at a vanilla farm, rum distillery and pearl farm. Each stop was just the perfect amount of time and the tours were very informative- but not too much to where you’re like ok this is too much info. The snorkeling was the best we’ve ever done! Gorgeous views, the crew provided us with snorkel gear & we walked to the other side of the small island & we just rode the current back to the boat. Bring water proof shoes though, because there is a notable amount of coral in the water and for your walk to snorkel spot. Afterwards we went to a stunning private island where we were served delicious local cuisine with a show! This is my definition of a perfect excursion, would do this again and again!
The people running this tour were so friendly and welcoming. We packed so much into the day and finished off with a delicious traditional lunch and performance on a gorgeous island. Couldn’t ask for a better experience, book it now!
