If you want to swim in pristine water holes and the beach, and see amazing scenery, book this tour now. Our guide Atua was fantastic. No rushing, no issues to stop at a shop or two, and quite witty. We were a party of six. We all had a fantastic time. All of us wanted to turn around and do it the next day. Though we were worn out after 9 hrs! I'll also add that the lunch was very nice. Nice fresh rolls and fruits! Thanks to Tim who was always very responsive with any questions we had.

Very good tour, we enjoyed ourselves and the tour guide was pleasant to talk to. The cave pool swim experience was magic but the first waterfall, I do have to say, be prepared for a struggle on slippery rocks before you start your swim

Not only did we cover a huge amount of ground, seeing tge absolute highlights of eastern Samoa plus some hidden gems, but we also got really involved by swimming and hiking around those sites. This is definitely an Active tour but me being somewhat limited in that area didn't stop me from having a fantastic time because Tim tailored it all to my abilities. I ended up having 3 glorious swims as well as bush walking through a rainforest to a cliff face, having lots of food available through the day, taking lots of photos of stunning views, and just having a fun and laughter filled day with someonewho's led a fascinating life. An absolute highlight.

Great experience with a very knowledgeable guide. Tim was fantastic and ensured we had everything we needed throughout the day. Enjoyed seeing some of Samoas lesser known gems as well as the popular ones!

Booked this trip as it included a hike and Tim went above and beyond to modify the entire days events so I didn’t see things I had already seen on a previous tour. Was provided with ample food and liquids and also received a history of Samoa whilst we drove around. Highly recommend this tour as Tim made sure I was able to see the beauty of (hidden) Samoa that normal tours don’t include.

The tour was fantastic. Tim is not only a great guide but also a lovely person to spend the day with. He has plenty of snacks, so you’ll never go hungry. The tour takes you to beautiful spots around the island, and Tim’s energy is contagious!

Simply outstanding! This is a must do with Tim. Tim was amazing, so gracious, knowledgeable, and worked completely around our schedule. We were on a tighter schedule due to coming in on a cruise ship, but Tim got us everywhere we wanted to go and then some. Tim was with us every step, swimming, jumping off the rocks, swimming in caves while other tours just looked on. Don't pass this one up and best of all you make you'll have a new friend in Samoa, Tim.
