I was so happy we did this, we asked our hotels concierge to book this for us and were not sorry we did! We saw shark, stingrays, murenas colorfull fish and beautiful coral! I would stay close to the guides and keep fingers and hands close to your body as the sharks come pretty close! Highly recommend!

Allan and Arthur were a great sailing team on our trip. Their knowledge of the marine life and sharing their perspectives on local Tahitian culture was very interesting. It was windy on our day so the sailing was fast. The floating bar with rum punch was delicious and was a nice way to cap off the excursion. The snorkeling area was beautiful but the water depth was a little shallow (which made maneuvering around the coral sometimes difficult). Having great hosts and beautiful, smooth ride around the lagoon made this a very memorable experience for our group. Would recommend booking this tour!

Absolutely wonderful! The food was amazing and we went to places I would have been to intimidated to go to as a tourist and would have no idea what to order. This was so worth it! Heimata was awesome and so knowledgeable! As he said “the tour is more than just the food- its about the stories and we meet as strangers and leave as friends.” As others have said- do this early in your trip so you can go back for more! It was phenomenal!

My husband and I had a 12 hour layover in Tahiti and enjoyed an incredible half day full island tour with the delightful Yota. We saw both the main tourist interest spots as well as beautiful locals only sights in an immaculate vehicle with all the safety precautions. Yota's incredibly knowledgeable about history and culture and tells great stories. Be sure to ask him about traditional Tahitian dancing! Due to COVID, we had some very challenging logistics that he completely handled for us, going well above and beyond what most tour guides would do to make our 12 hour stay perfect. He recommended an extraordinary "locals" restaurant for dinner before our flight and most importantly hooked me up with a fantastic jeweler (Kermei) where I bought my black tahitian pearls. Thank you Yota!

My wife and I were on our honeymoon in Tahiti and stayed in an Airbnb in the heart of Papeete. Although staying in the city was quite the experience and a good immersion into what city life was like, it was nothing compared to the YouTube videos and internet searches that led us to travel to French Polynesia to begin with, so we were actually left a little bummed on our first day there. Then came Tracy in her signature Red Mercedes to save us. She was nice enough to come pick us up from just outside our Airbnb and we could immediately sense how warm and friendly she was. She took the time to get to know us and get a feel for what our likes and dislikes were and what we were looking to see and was able to adjust to our preferences on the fly. The entire day felt to me as if we were just hanging out with an old friend who was really just looking out for us and making sure that we had the most fun and got the most out of our stay. Definitely ask to check out Dominic's food stand while you're there! He is a local who set up a nice little beachfront eatery where you can get awesome crepes and smoothies as you take a break during your tour. All of his food is locally sourced and a lot of it he grows himself. He is a big advocate for producing food locally, ethically and organically and is more than willing to share his knowledge on what he does. Speaking of producing local and organic foods, I would also suggest to ask about checking out Jean Claude's garden during your tour as well. He is a local who works on acres of land overlooking the beautiful Tahitian mountainside growing every type of fruit, vegetable and produce you can think of. He is also extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what he does and you will be sure to learn a great deal about what it's like to live off of the land while you're there. ***Another random side note*** If you're looking to buy pearls for yourself or your loved ones during your stay, ask for Charles (a pearl wholesaler who lives in Papeete) and Tracy will get you in contact with him. I guarantee that his shop has the best quality products that a fraction of the cost - we checked! (I was not paid to write any of this I promise) I highly recommend this tour if you are interested in experiencing the natural beauty of the island of Tahiti and meet some awesome locals. Tracy, Dominic, his family, Jean Claude and even Charles and his wife were some of the warmest, kindest and friendliest people we've ever met and were all eager to share about their culture and passions with us. My wife and I couldn't have asked for a better experience during our time in Tahiti and we will definitely be back for more in the future. The friends, knowledge and experience we have gained as a result are something that we will never forget.
