Bora Bora
After morning pickup from Vaitape Pier or your Bora Bora hotel, hop into your open-sided 4WD to begin your tour of the island with your friendly professional guide. Travel about 20 miles (32 km) around the island with several stops at postcard-perfect viewpoints including East Matira lookout, which overlooks a shimmering lagoon. Your 4WD then scales the mountain to reach Faanui Canon lookout where you can check out canons that were left behind by US troops when World War II ended. Stop at a small workshop in Faanui Valley to learn how craftspeople make colorful tie-dye sarongs and coconut oil. Then taste delicious tropical fruits at a small plantation before heading to Amanahune Bay lookout where you admire volcanic rock formations from the ancient caldera of Bora Bora. After a 4-hour island tour with your knowledgeable guide, take a break at your choice of restaurant where you can purchase lunch and enjoy approximately 1.5 hours on your own before your next adventure. In the early afternoon, you are transferred to the lagoon to meet your boat for your ocean excursion. Either catch some sun on deck or sit under the sunshade as your captain heads to your first stop, a calm lagoon with waist-deep water and plenty of stingrays. Using the provided snorkel gear, you can hop in the water to observe the gentle and friendly rays up-close. You may find several rays swimming around you, an amazing experience that you wont forget. Or simply observe from the boat if you prefer. After seeing the rays, head to another spot where you can see black-tip reef sharks gliding gracefully through the water near your boat. Finally, cruise over to a stunning coral garden where you have plenty of time to snorkel and soak up the beauty of the colorful corals and fish. At the end of a magical day seeing Bora Bora's natural treasures, your guide returns you to your hotel.

Awesome Snorkel + 4x4 + Lunch experience

5.00Excellent snorkeling experience with a guide duo that wanted the group to see the wildlife without feeding fish to come. It's a huge ethical issue with other tour companies that our guide did not contribute to. The 4x4 tour was a great way to get a glimpse into life on the main island of Bora Bora as well as the history. Lastly, the lunch was a delicious homemade mix of local favorites. After eating at the hotels for a few days, having homemade food was that much better.
Amazing day on land & water

5.00We had an excellent day with Manu & Heiarri seeing the island from both land & water. The snorkelling was great, & we were able to see the Manta rays, black tipped sharks & sting rays, plus many tropical fish at the coral garden. Manu was always attentive making sure we were all safe in the water, particularly when the current got stronger at the coral reef. Lunch on the island was basic but tasty, all locally sourced & cooked fresh. The 4x4 tour in land was a great way to finish off, with stunning views. We learned so much about the island history. Definitely a great tour to do, and can be fitted in as a port of call tour from a cruise ship.
Excellent day for our group of 7 people

5.00Very pleasant day thanks to Matanono and Terehi who accompanied us on this beautiful outing on the lagoon and during the lunch break. Very interesting coco demonstration.
Fun time on land and sea

5.00The combo lagoon and island tour made for a full and fun day. Terai pushed his 4x4 to take us to a lot of beautiful lookouts despite muddy, steep roads. The boat guides were fun and informative. The lunch on a private motu was delicious. I'd ask the guides to be more mindful of where they put their flippers while showing guests the marvels of the coral gardens.
We'll be back!

5.00Communication from the start was excellent, with fluid messages with all the necessary info, and the guides on the day of the event were the most! This is the second time I've done this tour.

4.00Unforgettable views during the 4X4 circuit, very pleasant driver guides. Lagoon tour less pleasant than Moorea, much less fish. Very average catering.
Boat ride was awesome, the 4x4 was just okay

4.00The first half of the day, on the boat, was spectacular! Snorkeling in several cool areas, wading around with rays and sharks, and a great lunch on the beach. Second half of the day, the 4x4 exploration, was a bit of a letdown. You never really see the interior of the island. You never go more than 1/4 mile from the main road, up a small hill to a lookout for photos, and move one. While beautiful, it got repetitious pretty quickly.
A team and a program at the top!
