• Spectacular Snorkeling and a Private Motu Lunch — Bring Your Own Gear

  This tour truly deserves to lead with the snorkeling, because it is without question the highlight of the entire experience—not an afterthought. The snorkeling at the Tahaa Coral Garden was exceptional. Located between two motu, this area offers some of the clearest water I’ve ever snorkeled in, with beautiful coral formations and abundant marine life, including schools of both small and large fish. This corner of Tahaa really is a slice of paradise, and it’s the reason I would recommend the tour. After snorkeling, we were taken to a private motu, which was a wonderful surprise. Having the island to ourselves, enjoying a relaxed and well-prepared lunch, and then easing back toward the ship made the day feel special and unhurried. On the return, we also had a quick stop to see reef sharks, which was an exciting bonus. The tour also included stops at a vanilla plantation, a rum distillery, and a pearl farm. These were enjoyable and interesting, but they were clearly secondary to the snorkeling and private island experience, which is what truly sets this tour apart. One important note for future guests: bring your own snorkel equipment. The provided gear did not seal properly, and no amount of adjusting kept water from entering the snorkel. Because the current through the coral garden is strong and you move quickly with the flow, having well-functioning equipment is essential. I am a very conscientious snorkeler and always take great care to avoid touching coral; however, while dealing with a constantly flooding snorkel and managing my position in moving water, I briefly lost control and scraped my leg after brushing against coral. With properly fitting personal gear, this would have been a far more relaxed and enjoyable experience. In summary, the snorkeling at Tahaa Coral Garden combined with a private motu lunch is the true highlight of this tour. With clearer emphasis on this in the tour description—and a reminder for guests to bring their own snorkel equipment—this experience could be outstanding from start to finish.

  

  

  

  

• Super trip to Taha'a.

  I've done the coral gardens drift snorkel on two other trips, so this was a super option to add a number of other activities. The vanilla farm, distillery, and pearl farm were very interesting. We then did the drift snorkel. Afterwards, we went to another motu and had a delicious lunch buffet and some entertainment - music and dancing. The only slight negatives were that we did only one pass on the drift snorkel. That was enough for me, but another passenger later said to me that he would've liked to do it again - BUT he did not ask! I suspect they would have been fine going again if anyone had asked. After lunch, we spent too much time on the motu. We all finally just got back on the boat as a subtle clue to the crew that we wanted to leave. We were all on a cruise and therefore had very limited time to see Raiatea after this trip and before the ship left. Overall, a wonderful experience that I will undoubtedly repeat.

• An unforgettable day between Raiatea and Tahaa!

  As a resident, I recently took part in a boat trip between Raiatea and Tahaa, and despite the rain at first, we had a great day! The scenery was beautiful and we had the opportunity to enjoy a motu just for ourselves, which made the experience even more special. The meal was simply excellent, with local flavors that delighted our taste buds. As a bonus, we were treated to a private dance performance, which was the icing on the cake! The captain and hostesses were really attentive, making sure everyone was comfortable and had a good time. Their professionalism and kindness really made the difference. I really enjoyed this service and highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting this area. It was a memorable experience!

  We chose the Taha’a excursion with the Revanui team. It was an explosion of color between the different blues of the lagoon and the visit of a pearl farm, an explosion of flavor during the tasting of Rum and the visit of a vanilla plantation!!!! Thanks to the Vaiarii team for this visit and the day on a private motu, around a simple and tasty meal!!!! Thank you and be sure we will be back!!!

  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Day on Tahaa – Highly Recommend Revanui Excursions! I had such a fantastic time on my first guided tour with Revanui Excursions that I booked a second private tour the following week! Both experiences were absolutely wonderful. Our guide was warm, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone had a great time. The boat was spotless, comfortable, and felt very safe — with a strong motor and excellent equipment that gave us full confidence throughout the day. We enjoyed snorkeling in the Coral Gardens drift, which was so beautiful that we did it several times, and later swam with sharks and stingrays — an unforgettable experience! The guide also provided snacks and was very accommodating to our group’s wishes, making it feel like a completely personalized adventure. This is truly a must-do experience on Tahaa. Revanui Excursions is professional, friendly, and delivers an incredible day on the water. I would absolutely book with them again!

  A big thank you to Captain Pets and the lovely Mayna for this dream day! Thanks to the kindness and kindness of our two guides, ‘we had an incredible experience! Everything was perfect, very interesting visits to the vanilla grove, Manau rum, and the pearl farm. Snorkelling in the coral garden is beautiful and lunch on the motu was delicious! To the sound of yukukele from Pets and the singers, Mayna gave us a wonderful demo of Tahitian dance ... we understood after why she danced so well , Mayna won the award for best dancer 2025! Mauruuru! Joelle and Jean Francois

  Great tour, the best one we have taken so far. The tour operator is extremely knowledgeable and a very kind person, we had great fun and learned a lot. It was very personable, we had a beautiful day on the sea, saw rays and beautiful fish, visited the rum distillery and the oyster pearl farm, had a wonderful lunch on a motu and talked about life on the island with the owner . He is a kind and smart person , we had a blast! I highly recommend this tour .

  We had a great time. The stops at the Vanilla Farm, the Pearl Farm and the beautiful water for the swimming were awesome. The lunch they provided was also very good. Just wish the last people were on time. They were 45 minutes late and didn't even apologize for being late and every stop the we're the last ones on the boat. Pretty rude people.
