Unforgettable snorkeling trip

5.00I would highly recommend this excursion. We were picked up on time by our tour guide Toto. He stopped along the way to show us the beautiful sights and explain the history and culture of the area. We swam with black tipped sharks and manta rays, an unforgettable experience, made even better by our tour guide. Toto was funny, gracious, and friendly. So glad we booked this tour.
Just book the tour, you will not regret it.

5.00This was the most amazing tour I think we have ever done. Tao our guide was absolutely phenomenal. Our favorite part of the tour was the coral garden near the airport. We have snorkeled many place including the Great Barrier Reef last year and I would say it any even beat out that snorkel excursion. The reef was beautiful with many layers and a complete labyrinth of coral and fish species. Tao is very dedicated and passionate about his job and his community and it shows in his work. Excellent tour that made our entire trip to Bora Bora and the Society Islands.
Amazing tour

5.00Terrific snorkel tour. Rony was amazing. He was the captain, the snorkel guide and the entertainer. The fish, sharks and corral were outstanding
An amazing four hour experience

5.00I’d give them a hundred if possible! Nico was our guide and he was so great.always asking if we were ok. We went to sharks and rays first,then coral gardens, then out to the bigger sharks. It’s an experience of a lifetime. Ever felt any danger, just an amazing experience. Picked us up at the dock of our hotel. Just do it!
Good Vibes All Around!

5.00We had a fabulous time with Manu, our guide. He spoke in both English and French and sang in Polynesian. Very talented and good natured guy! We enjoyed seeing the coral beds and swimming with the sharks and rays though I thought there would be more rays (there were half a dozen). The outrigger boat was fun and I got to lay on the netting on the side (and was splashed by a wave) and also in the front with my husband. Manu was very knowledgeable and personable. The snacks of fresh fruit and coconut bread were a nice touch. Highly recommended!

5.00We booked through our cruise excursions and are so glad we did. This was our highlight of our trip to French Polynesia. Our captain Big Mike made sure we had a good time. His ukulele playing while we were snorkeling added to the experience. We saw many sharks and sting rays and then snorkelled through the coral garden. Refreshments, fruit and cake were a lovely touch on our trip back. Mike told great stories and we will always remember this trip. Māuruuru roa 🌴
Good tour, less sharks more Coral Garden?

4.00It was a good tour and not too busy at sites. Each stop was about 30 minutes. Coral garden should have been longer as one pass through was not enough to enjoy it thoroughly. Total time was about 3 hrs. Check the operator time for each location before you book. We suggest a longer tour or just one stop for sharks and rays and longer at coral garden.
This was the best guided...

5.00This was the best guided snorkeling tour I have ever been of because of our two guides. They were locals who were extremely knowledgeable, and took us to see the most amazing parts of Bora Bora. The stingrays we swam with had been named (shout and to Shakira), and even though no food was given to the animals, even the fish flocked to our guides like old friends. This made the experience even more special. When I return, I will definitely be booking with them again.

5.00My kids, 10 and 12, husband and I experienced this tour on our dream vacation to Bora Bora. Timu and Tamu (sorry if we spelled this wrong!) were the best guides from the start! They told funny stories, sang and played the ukulele and drums to accompany our boat ride, and knew the best snorkeling spots. They were well equipped with snorkel gear, fins and life jackets should you need any. We were wowed at every stop! We saw stingrays, sharks and swam through a gorgeous coral garden with tons of colorful fish. They offered juice and fresh fruit and delicious coconut bread at the end as we headed back to our resort, completely satisfied and happy. Thanks for a wonderful tour!
The Best Tour!!

5.00Toto was amazing, super friendly and helpful. He serenades you with his ukulele. He took us to 3 sites to snorkel, all different and beautiful. His girl friend, Juliet, a manta ray was incredible and a sight that you just had to be there. There were so many sharks and we saw many brightly colored fish. This was the best tour we took.
