The heart-shaped island of Mo’orea makes a wonderful base for divers and snorkelers eager to explore its surrounding barrier reef system. Feeding the massive, sacred eels of Huahine is a one-in-a-lifetime way to experience an important local ritual.

So FUN!!! I highly recommend this tour! It is with a small, local, and family-run company. The absolute highlight of the trip for myself and my two teenagers. Feeding the rays and fish was so much fun! Ripping around in the jet skis was amazing! We came to Moorea to scuba dive and our dive shop recommended this company and we couldn't have been happier! Go do it! So much fun! :)

Allan and Arthur were a great sailing team on our trip. Their knowledge of the marine life and sharing their perspectives on local Tahitian culture was very interesting. It was windy on our day so the sailing was fast. The floating bar with rum punch was delicious and was a nice way to cap off the excursion. The snorkeling area was beautiful but the water depth was a little shallow (which made maneuvering around the coral sometimes difficult). Having great hosts and beautiful, smooth ride around the lagoon made this a very memorable experience for our group. Would recommend booking this tour!

Absolutely wonderful! The food was amazing and we went to places I would have been to intimidated to go to as a tourist and would have no idea what to order. This was so worth it! Heimata was awesome and so knowledgeable! As he said “the tour is more than just the food- its about the stories and we meet as strangers and leave as friends.” As others have said- do this early in your trip so you can go back for more! It was phenomenal!

My husband and I had a 12 hour layover in Tahiti and enjoyed an incredible half day full island tour with the delightful Yota. We saw both the main tourist interest spots as well as beautiful locals only sights in an immaculate vehicle with all the safety precautions. Yota's incredibly knowledgeable about history and culture and tells great stories. Be sure to ask him about traditional Tahitian dancing! Due to COVID, we had some very challenging logistics that he completely handled for us, going well above and beyond what most tour guides would do to make our 12 hour stay perfect. He recommended an extraordinary "locals" restaurant for dinner before our flight and most importantly hooked me up with a fantastic jeweler (Kermei) where I bought my black tahitian pearls. Thank you Yota!
