Tahiti Small Group Tours

Start your journey in Papeete, the island’s bustling capital. This vibrant city is the cultural and economic hub of French Polynesia, offering a mix of modern city life and traditional Polynesian charm. Visit the Marché de Papeete (Papeete Market) to shop for fresh tropical fruits, local handicrafts, vanilla beans, and the island’s famous Tahitian black pearls. The Robert Wan Pearl Museum provides an in-depth look at the history and craftsmanship behind these precious gems. As you explore the waterfront promenade, stop by the Cathédrale Notre-Dame—one of the oldest churches in Tahiti, built in the 19th century with a mix of Polynesian and colonial architectural influences.

While Tahiti is known for its dramatic black sand beaches, La Plage de Maui, located on the southern coast, stands out for its rare white sand and crystal-clear waters. This peaceful beach is perfect for swimming, snorkeling, or simply relaxing under the sun. The shallow lagoon is ideal for families, offering calm waters where you can spot colorful tropical fish. Nearby roadside food stalls, called roulottes, serve fresh seafood dishes like grilled mahi-mahi and coconut-based delicacies.

If you have extra time, don’t miss the chance to explore Tahiti’s sister islands. Moorea, just a 30-minute ferry ride away, is known for its dramatic volcanic peaks, lush valleys, and serene turquoise lagoons. It’s the perfect place for snorkeling, hiking, or taking a scenic 4x4 safari tour to panoramic viewpoints like Belvedere Lookout. For the ultimate luxury escape, fly to Bora Bora, often called the “Pearl of the Pacific.” With its world-famous overwater bungalows, pristine coral reefs, and Mount Otemanu towering over the lagoon, it’s a dream destination for honeymooners and luxury travelers.
