AN EXCLUSIVE AND PRIVATE EXCURSION

5.00A exceptional and completely private excursion. The price for 4 of us were very reasonable for 3.5 hours. We snorkeled and saw Manta rays which they were huge and the other 2 rays sorry got the names🙈. We also snorkeled to see the beautiful coral reef like a maze with all colors of fish. David and Hiti are very knowledgeable and make sure we are safe and all the equipments are working properly. We prefer our own snorkeling gears and using their fins. We snorkeled at our own pace. We are extremely happy with David and Hiti’s service. Thank you for the great experience!
Great Afternoon Tour of Bora Bora and Sea Life!

5.00Captain David picked us up on our hotel dock promptly in a spotless, beautiful boat for our half day private snorkeling tour. He took us to no less than 4 spots all over the island and swam with us to point our Manta Rays, Eagle Rays, Sting Rays, and a variety of fish. Even stopping in the channel to swim with a dozen black tip sharks. Aimee (coordinator) was super responsive and helpful. David was friendly, knowledgable, and gave us great insight into the island and ecosystem. We had a wonderful time and would definitely book with them again in the future. Thank you, David and Aimee!

5.00This was a wonderful excursion. We were picked up and dropped off right at our hotel dock. Taki was a fabulous guide. He was fun, knowledgeable and very easy to spend time with. He even entertained us by singing and playing the ukulele. We saw huge rays and endless amounts of fish in the coral garden. It was so nice to have a private tour so it was just the 4 of us. I highly recommend this activity and ask for Taki.
Great guide! So many colors that did not look real.

5.00We booked with H2O from a referral from new friends we met while staying at Westin Bora Bora. Our guide was right on time to pick us up on the dock. He was awesome! The first of three stops, we saw a Manta Ray. Second stop was a beautiful reef. So many colors. Nake would play his Uke and sang to us while we were preparing to leave for the next stop. The last stop we saw a fever of eagle rays (18 of them) along with a smaller sting ray. Since this was private, he made a quick stop in town for us to grab some snacks and souvenirs. What an experience.
A MUST in Bora Bora!

5.00This was by far one of the best excursions we took while in French Polynesia. Our captain was amazing. We had 3-4 separate snorkeling stops. We swam with 25 eagle rays, 3 manta rays, a stingray, and through a beautiful coral garden. We even stopped when a 25’ tiger shark was swimming next to our boat. Just incredible! Highly recommend!!
Excellent tour and guide
