    Matt and the other guide were both wonderful and welcoming. We did the early morning hike and loved the experience. They were on time picking us up from our hotel lobby and the hike was both leisurely, and challenging. The y do give you a walking stick for stability on the mountainous parts and provide plenty of opportunities for breaks while they give you snippets of Polynesian culture, history, and local plant-life info. The waterfall was also beautiful and so fun to swim in the pool at the base of it. There is also a fruit tasting at the end and it was some of the best fruit I've ever had. Can't recommend this hike enough!

    We had a wonderful time with Sylvie on our hike! We were amazed by how much we learned about the plants and fruit along the way. The trail did get slippery at times but they provided us with walking sticks and pointed out rocks to avoid to keep us safe. In addition to Sylvie leading the group, we also had another guide following so nobody was ever left behind. The waterfall was beautiful! My husband and I went into the water-glad to have water shoes- and it was on the cold side but not unbearable. The highlight of the walk was the feast of garden-grown fruits! It felt almost as if we had never truly tasted a mango or banana before this trip. They are so much more flavorful and rich here! A real treat!

    There's a fair bit of walking before you finally get to the waterfall. The tour guide points out allot of different types of plants and explains a little bit of history of Tahiti. Swimming at the waterfall is refreshing, lovely clear cool water. Then you walk back for fresh fruit and cold drinks. The walk can be a little scary as there's allot of uneven ground and if it's been raining can be quite slippery

    The waterfall was amazing and the hike there was a welcome change from beach time. The guides were very friendly, but I wish less time was taken on explaining every tree we passed and more time could have been spent at the waterfall. I would still highly recommend. Definitely get in the waterfall pool and lay down in the water looking up at the waterfall. It is worth it.
