5.00This was a highlight of our vacation. Conditions were spectacular with low wind and some clouds. Everyone on board had a fantastic experience (2 friends, adult child, my spouse and me. The meeting point is a little tricky but if you read the instructions and have some faith the captain, Leo, will be there to meet you as the catamaran returns from an afternoon snorkeling adventure. Leo was a kind, informative and competent captain.
Book this cruise!

5.00Wow. I can’t say enough about the private sunset cruise and our captain, Leo. He was energetic, fun and taught us so much about Moorea and its history. We really enjoyed the sunset cruise and would recommend it to all. Not to mention Leo is a quasi-photographer with some of the shots he got of us. 10 out of 10.
Fantastic sunset cruise!

5.00My wife and I did the private sunset cruise on our honeymoon trip to Moorea. We had a fantastic time. The boat was beautiful, the sunset was absolutely gorgeous, and the flowers, snacks, and drinks provided were the perfect touch (we loved the pineapple champagne). We also really enjoyed learning more about the area! Overall, a really wonderful time. Would book again in a heartbeat!
Great experience, beautiful sunset views

5.00My wife and I had a private sunset cruise with Captain Leo and had such a great, memorable experience! First off, it was a stunning way to see Moorea. Looking back at the mountain peaks as the sun begins to cast longer shadows, we were left in awe of this beautiful island. We enjoyed a couple rum drinks as we made a first stop in Cook’s Bay, and we learned a bit about the local history from Leo. After, we went out past the reef and did some sailing, feeling absolutely relaxed as we watched the sun begin to set. We made another stop in Opunohu bay and Leo offered to take some photos of us at just the right moment as the sun went down. Captain Leo was so kind, and full of information as well. We vibed really well with him, and would absolutely recommend doing a private cruise.
A great way to end Christmas Day!

5.00We had a wonderful experience. We were picked up by the Taboo at our hotel dock, traveled to two bays-very smooth sailing, learned a lot about the area, saw a rainbow and then watched the sky light up in shades of orange, yellow and pink as the sun set while drinking pineapple champagne. A great way to end Christmas Day.
So relaxing

5.00We had the best time with Leo on the sunset couples cruise. It was just the two of us plus the captain. He made us snacks and drinks and we just had a wonderfully relaxing time enjoying the views and the sailing. Would highly recommend to anyone!!!!
Awful, not recommended

2.00Awful conditions to sail this night and they still took us out. Not having a sunset is one thing, but it was windy, cold and rained and left us sitting in the zipped up cabin for over half the ride. I was in a sundress and luckily had a sweatsuit in my bag from earlier that day which I had to change into. I felt like it was more Gilligans island than a sunset cruise. The weather was so bad that night, we even lost power at our hotel and apparently some of the hotel staff lost it at their homes too. We discussed our disappointment with Im guessing the owner and he said he would credit us $100. So, basically, I paid $500 to sit in a zipped up plastic cabin and be cold looking at blurry views of cloudy mountains through the plastic. You think they’d practice better business etiquette and not take people out on such HORRIBLE days. I feel like we should be compensated for at least half price of the trip because there were no views between the clouds, wind and rain. I understand they can’t control the weather but when it’s a sunset cruise and COLD AND rainy AND windy AND cloudy, they should have done the right thing and said you know, it’s miserable out. We’re not gonna go. They just wanted their money. Do yourself a favor and cancel your reservation if the weather looks bad bc they won’t bc they don’t care and just want your money. Only reason I gave them a two star review and not a one is bc the captain was a cool guy. I’ll be posting a full YouTube and Facebook review on my channels when we arrive home since I can’t post videos and photos here. Do not recommend.
An unforgettable experience not to be missed!!!

5.00The tour was a highlight of our Moorea stay. A “must” when visiting this beautiful island. The views and impressions from the water are uniquely beautiful. Our skipper responded flexibly to our wishes and enriched the tour with many insights about the island's landscape and culture.
Great time with Taboo!

5.00Absolute great time! We loved our private cruise on the beautiful Taboo catamaran - we learned a ton about Moorea, enjoyed a few yummy mai tai’s, and relaxed as Moorea showed off with its beauty. Would absolutely recommend spending the evening with Captain Leo and his beautiful boat!
Would do again!

5.00Excellent! We stayed at the Hilton and were picked up at the pier on site. It had been pouring 15 minutes before we were to meet, but the skies cleared and it was an awesome sail with great views. Highly recommend! Back in plenty of time to change and drive over to Rudy’s for a 7pm reservation (another “highly recommend” spot!).
