We joined this whale watching tour for two days and had an absolutely wonderful experience. First of all, we were deeply impressed by the warm hospitality and friendliness of all the staff. Above all, we were touched by the guiding that showed such deep respect and love for the whales. On the second day, we had the chance to swim with whales and see a mother and calf up close — an unforgettable experience that moved us deeply. At the end of the tour, the staff played the ukulele and sang, which created a truly memorable and heartwarming moment. We also appreciated that one of the guides spoke a little Japanese and kindly talked to us in our language — it made us feel very welcome. We are truly grateful for everyone’s hospitality and warm hearts. We highly recommend this tour to anyone!

A magnificent trip to the lagoon on board a very comfortable and recent boat. Fabien really welcomed us, changed site to give us one more chance to swim with the mantas. A moment suspended! We also had the chance to swim with a group of leopard rays. Snorkelling in the coral garden was really fascinating. Thank you very much for this wonderful morning.

Fabian and Mana were wonderful guides for my husband and I's morning whale watching tour. We chose the private boat because we hoped to have an easier time getting in and out of the water if we were able to snorkel with the whales. Luckily for us, we were! We got to snorkel with Le Chanteur and hear the songs of the solo male humpback, which was enchanting and something we'll remember forever! Additionally, at the end of our tour, we stumbled upon a mother, calf and escort, and were able to quickly jump in the water with them as well! My understanding is that the shared tour that went out at the same time was unable to do this because of the amount of people that would have to get suited up to snorkel would take too long and the whales would have already moved by then! This is why we will always recommend anyone to book a private tour!! You won't be disappointed!

Mana is an incredible Captain, and we had a truly amazing experience! He took us to the best spots and we snorkeled with eagle rays, a manta ray, black tip reef sharks and hundreds of colorful fish! It exceeded our expectations and was a day we will never forget! Thank you Mana!

Fabulous. We went on 2 half day excursions with Reef Discovery. The 1st was a group your with 2 other couples. The 2nd was a private. Both captained by Kevin. The group tour was amazing. The private was simply one of the best excursions we experienced on Bora Bora. Mantas, sharks, rays, spotted eagles, fish, coral, eels. What else is there? Kevin might be the best guide in all of Bora Bora. He guided us through each snorkel session, found interesting hard to find see life, and provided commentary.

Thanks to Fabien for his professionalism! He knew how to make me smile again despite the rain that was there. 😉 We were able to swim and follow the Manta rays and visit a great coral garden 🪸

We loved it! Picked up by Pierre on time at our resort's dock. 4 different spots to snorkel and a tour of the complete island for dessert! Pierre took his time with me, a less experienced snorkeler, to provide a perfect experience. We saw all manner of fish, coral, and eagle rays and manta rays. Pierre has a good eye for spotting rays. And because it was private, we could go places other bigger tours could not. Worth the price, in my humble opinion.
