08-21 SV Domini Weβve just had a great fun morning out with Manu from Bora Bora Quad Adventures (www.boraboraquadadventures.com). We rented a couple of quad bikes, and we went to places you couldnβt get to on foot - not unless you were really intrepid! Manu is a great guide explaining the history of all the various places he took us to. He speaks perfect English, and itβs only a short walk from Bora Bora Yacht Club - though they will pick you up from elsewhere if need be. I thoroughly recommend it to cruisers on Bora Bora.

07/2015 SV Beyond Reach, Teare Back in 2015 my crew and I went on a tour with these guys. At the time the business was known as Moorea Safari Tours. It was a great tour, took all day. They picked us up at the dock and drove us all around Moorea and through the mountains. We stopped at several scenic places to take pictures, and our favorite stop was the distillery. Our favorite was the ginger liquor. Our driver/tour guide spoke english and was very friendly. 10/2020 SV Marauder, Teare & Martin We met up with this business again in October 2020. They are no longer called Moorea Safari Tours, though they still do their island safari tours. Theyβve also added quads and horseback riding to their tours. We havenβt tried the other tours yet but may look into it and update this later.

Excursion Bleu
Island: Tahaa
We took this tour for an overview via boat of the island of Tahaβa, which is directly across from Raiatea, and accessible only by private boat or little commuter ferries. We wanted to see all the highlights all at once before picking what areas we would re-explore at our own pace on Shindig. There are many tour companies listed online for Tahaβa - this one stood out by its referral from another cruising catamaran, Panache, who had just finished the tour with a party of six. We jumped at the opportunity to try it ourselves. Would give the day a 10/10! Excursion Bleu: Motorized outrigger with shade gives you access to shallow lagoons. They can pick you up in the anchorage outside downtown Uturoa, Raiatea. Timeframe is 830 - 5PM. Cost 110,000 xpf per person. π§ exb@mail.pf or π§ excursionbleue@tahaa.net Bruno was our contact - good email communication. We booked two days in advance. The following activities were included: swimming with swing rays and black tipped sharks in open water, guided tour of Vanilla Farm with full process of growing and harvesting explained, snorkeling in the 1st of 2 Coral Gardens, buffet lunch in very pleasant setting, lagoon side at a local families home, guided tour of the Pearl Farm βChanβ, 2nd Coral Garden snorkeling through very shallow areas with coral and fish, Tour of the Tahaβa Rum distillery and transportation back to boat. The highlights were having plenty of time in the water (3 different sessions), great pace of activities, conversational tour guide and driver, having guided tour in the 2nd Coral Garden, where we went single file following the leader through the maze of Coral. In addition to lunch, there were snacks, including rum punch provided, and at the end of the day, cold Hinano beers. The group had a total of 10 participants, we were the only cruisers, English speaking and the oldest (!). It was a fabulous day spent as tourists, and highly recommended!
