Amazing half day with a fantastic crew! We swam with sharks and rays, took advantage of the coral reef, and enjoyed a good snack during the final tour of Bora Bora. I recommend!

The tour was great, our guide Tau was really informative from the beginning, can see he is very passionate about his culture and he loves his job. Loved how he was playing the ukulele, singing and steering the boat with his feet!! I got to hold a sting ray and one of guides took some pictures of me and saw heaps of black tips and Tau even took me round a tour of the coral reef and fish and then he took a really cool video of me with all the fish. During the tour one of the other passengers saw a dolphin in the distance and tau very kindly stopped the boat for a good while so we could see them, there was a large pod it was so lovely, I'm so greatful that he stopped to do that for us! Tau made all the ladies leaf headbands too. The tour said half day but we were on it for 5 hours so it definitely was good value for money. Also unlimited soft drinks on board. (No snacks given though as I read there were snacks on previous reviews but I wasn't hungry anyway so didn't really matter) Over all a fab day on a well organised tour.
Great Snorkeling in Bora Bora

We booked a 3.5-hour snorkeling excursion as part of a Paul Gauguin cruise. Captain Aro and mate Temo were great. They took us to three spots where we saw Manta Rays, Spotted Eagle Rays and a coral grotto filled with tons of fish. Great family stories about life on Bora Bora. They were very careful with each person and kept us under watchful eyes. Of our three trips to French Polynesia , this was the best excursion by far. Thanks.
best experience in every aspect

This excursion was even better than when we hired private boat for snorkeling. I realize there are many great guides given French Polynesian locals are lovely people; however, Tau must be the best guide! What we saw & did was varied and interesting. Tau took it to the next level making every minute a cultural enjoyment with his happy songs accompanied by ukulele and his genuinely joyful attitude. We were treated to freshly cracked coconut water, bananas & homemade bread. Also, we never felt rushed to leave stop X for stop Y, which was a hesitation for booking a multi-stop group trip. Tour group operator very organized by calling our hotel ahead of time to notify of their arrival to pick up which guests and updated hotel with ETA.

Such an amazing boat trip, we swam in and around the coral, swam with sharks and rays, even had a pod of dolphins come and play along side the boat. The tour guide was amazing, knowledgeable, accommodating and such a good laugh! Can't recommend enough!

Tau" thank you for such a beautiful day. It was a lesson for my life. You live a simple life of healthy coexistence with nature. Thank you for sharing about your culture, how you live, and the beautiful things on your island. Beautiful reefs. It was wonderful. Thank you for such a lovely moment. You also sing very well. You're an excellent guide. If things don't work out, you can sing as a guide. You're better than Bad Bunny and Ricky Martin. I had a great time. I recommend you 100%.
