Private 2 Hour Walking Tour in Papeete
A Boat Load of Great Information!!!
Pauline is an amazing guide! I've been blessed to have done a great number of tours around the world and this one is at the top of my list. Pauline was extremely informative and truly passionate about her country. She was able to relay information in an engaging style without making it seem overwhelming. Pauline went above and beyond and even provided me with an island driving tour for the next day. I throughly enjoyed that as well and would highly recommend renting a car and driving the loop around Tahiti. Such a breath taking country. Thank you again Pauline!

Small Group Shared Half Day Tahiti Tour Waterfalls&Scenic Coast
Good tour if the weather is good
Pretty good day, not helped by very windy and wet weather. Angele did her best but the weather did not play well with us. We didn't get to see the Marae Ta'ata or the other one..simply did not stop there as I understand it would be too wet. The gardens were lovely. The waterfall was very wet and windy. Would be a reasonably good tour if the weather was ok..you do get a general overall view of the island. Not sure about the main photo used in the listing. Cannot see how that would ever occur on this tour (good weather or not). No water or fruit BUT we did stop for 10 mins at an unscheduled stop which we appreciated.
