An amazing way to experience the best of being on the water in Bora Bora. Booking and communication with the hosts (Stephanie) was excellent ensuring we were provided with clear details of our pick up location. We particularly appreciated her flexibility changing the date of our trip due to our cruise itinerary changes. After being picked up we spent time snorkelling with Manta Rays, Sharks and in the stunning Garden Reef before enjoying a delicious Motu lunch. On our return journey we had the opportunity to travel around The Lagoon seeing some of the beautiful places Bora Bora has to offer. Our two guides did an exceptional job of finding the best places to snorkel whilst ensuring that the enjoyment, needs and safety of their guests were their priority. Would certainly recommend this trip. The best 6 hours you could spend in stunning Bora Bora.

This was a great day out. Our guide had lots of interesting info and kept us entertained. We had an unexpected stop where we got to watch a manta ray, plus we viewed sharks & rays close up. Coral Garden was also a great stop. Our only regret was we missed the eagle rays due to the number of boats already there and our time at Coral Garden was reduced as time was spent chasing a turtle.
What an incredible experience! Do not miss out on this when you are visiting Bora Bora! Our guide Glenn was amazing….very knowledgeable, kind and entertaining. And the lunch that was prepared was excellent! 10 out of 10 stars!! They were also very accommodating to picking us up at our resort and getting us back to our ferry after we stayed in town to walk around some after we were done. We were fortunate enough to get to swim with sharks and three different types of rays. The reef and all the other fish we saw was breathtaking! We can’t say enough good things!
An amazing tour ...a nust . Everything was better than expected and oyr guide Tevalu( I hope I pronounce his name correctly) was marvellous .
We loved glen. His personality was infectious. We had the best time. He snorkeled with us. And we had the best time!
Wonderful experience the lunch was authentic provided at an idyllic beach spot. Our guide was exceptional. Coral gardens snorkeling was amazing - great coral and fishes, swimming with black tipped sharks ( non aggressive, but would bite if antagonized!), and stingrays
We loved this tour, Bora Bora was amazing and Tino did a great job finding us things to see. We saw Manta rays, Eagle rays, sharks, and stingrays. We also snorkeled in the coral garden where we saw hundreds of fish and corals. The motu lunch was excellent. Don't miss the coconut show! We highly recommend this tour.
Wonderful day exploring the lagoon in Bora Bora. Our skipper was extremely helpful and encouraging with people not so comfortable with swimming and everyone got to enjoy the marine life. The lunch spot on the motu was a wonderful touch to the day as well!
Yesterday we had wonderful time on this excursion. Everything was perfect. First we made many stops for snorkeling to see all kinds of marine life, different days etc. Then we stopped for close encounter with sharks and rays in shallow water. Then we did slow drift snorkeling with the current to see beautiful live reefs. Afterwards we went for a lunch in a lagoon. Food was very good and included fresh fish and marinated chicken. We went for a short walk around motu. And last but not the least, we completed tour with complete circle around the mainland. Wonderful day in a paradise. Thank you!
You’ve no need to worry just relax, you have no idea what their doing, but trust me, they soooo know what their doing. This day rates in one of the best days in my life, absolute magic…
We had amazing time. The tour was fun with snorkeling and swimming with sharks but our tour guide’s knowledge of the history (7th generation) provided so much more than just the tour. Motu lunch was fabulous. Would recommend to anyone looking to snorkel or learn more about the island.
We are a family with two small children and had the most wonderful experience ever! We swam with Manta Ray, Black Tipped Sharks and lots of tropical fish in the most beautiful Coral Garden. Our Captain and local guide Deiva was amazing and helped us look after our children, so we could jump in the water and experience the wonderful underwater life. Thank you Deiva for making this one of the most unforgettable days of our lives.
we spotted lots of species of ray, snorkelling was awesome in clear water despite the weather being rainy.
Not worth the price we paid. This was the most expensive tour we took in Polynesia, and was to be the jewel of the cruise. It was very disappointing . The two guides spoke mostly French even though we were to have English guides. Luckily we had a lady on our trip that spoke French so she translated what they were saying. We did go snorkeling, but only one spot, and only for 30 minutes. The rest of the time we were touring the island, he showed us the fancy hotels, and repeated the same route twice. We did find some dolphins, that was interesting. We stopped at a motu for lunch, and it was very good, but not the bbq as described , and it was prepared by a local family. But as soon as the guides showed us the lunch, they disappeared. Our group of 12 was left for about an hour just sitting on a bench. We could not swim there as it was very shallow, and there was many pot holes that if you were not careful you would have fallen and hurt yourself. One of the guides finally came back after the lady that spoke French went to find them. He said we would go to another spot, but then the other guide came back and said no we would not be snorkeling again. The French lady said they were very annoyed that we had asked to leave this spot and see more, or go snorkeling again. Finally, we loaded back into the boat, and the lead guide was concerned that we would arrive back early, and might request a refund so he took us on another boat ride to kill the time. They have gps on the boats to ensure that we get the 6 hours. Very disappointing, and not at all what the other reviews say. Maybe we got new guides that didn’t know what to do, and since we had already paid they thought it was just it their job to drive the boat around the island and get paid. Totally not what any of us were expecting, and very disappointing as we will never be back to this island again. It was to be an experience of a lifetime but it turned into a horrible experience, one to forget.
Highly recommend - incredible snorking and great food. Swam with the skarks and sting rays, saw manata rays, and eagle rays.
Tino and “Maui” gave us the best day ever! They sang and entertained with jokes. We swam manta, eagle, and sting rays, sharks, and tons of fish. There are tons of stops and they helped if we were over eager and too tired to make it back to the boat. There were cold drinks and an amazing lunch on a private motu. The netting trampoline area was my boys favorite spot. There were few people so it felt exclusive; glad I booked this one versus a larger boat. Picked us up and dropped us off right at the dock by the cruise tender. 10/10—nothing would make this better except me coming back and doing it again.
We had a fabulous day in Bora Bora on this excursion. Our guide Tuoaris (? Sp pronounced Twoworries) was fabulous. We thoroughly enjoyed our snorkeling stops to see manta rays, eagle rays, sting rays and black tip sharks and the not to be missed coral garden! We also had a delicious home cooked Polynesian lunch (the coconut bread and poisson cru were to die for) on a private motu with time to relax on the beach. The rain held off until we were on the boat on the way back around the island. Even with the rain, it was a fabulous experience! We highly recommend this excursion!!!
Okay, this was one of the coolest things I have ever done. Everyone on our boat, 8 people, all agreed it was the best snorkeling they have ever done. We did this tour off the cruise ship. You are picked up at the dock very close to where tenders come in. The guides were amazing and fun and informative! They sang and played the ukulele as we cruised along. Such a smooth ride with the outrigger, I sat on the hammock...relaxing! We saw the beautiful Manta rays, Eagle rays, Stingrays and black tip reef sharks. Some stops you can touch the bottom and others were over your head. It is so freaky and amazing seeing sharks going by your face in the water. The coral garden was absolutely gorgeous teeming with so many fish. They have floats available if you are not a strong swimmer. Bora Bora is a magical place in the world. The motu lunch stop was tasty and picturesque. They went all the way around the island. It's easy to understand why the locals were so friendly and happy, they live in paradise! Thanks for sharing your home!
Guide Tino and Captain Mawra (?) showed us a grand day out! We were treated with ukulele ballads as we circled Bora Bora and enjoyed all if the hot spots snorkeling with Manta Rays, Black tip Sharks, Stingrays, and Eagle Rays and swam through the Coral Gardens before enjoying a peaceful lunch on a tropical island. Our only disappointment was that all though the listing promised beer, there was none to be had.
A really great trip. Knowledgeable and friendly blokes in Toni and Maui. Some of the best snorkelling sites in the world. The shoal of manta rays was unforgettable. Food on the Motu was lovely and the trip home excellent. Thank you guys for a great day.
DiDi was exceptional best trip.i have ever been on great day All the water stops were amazing the colour's beautiful
We went on a 6-hour tour with Glen Charles. It was amazing. Charles is so knowledgeable, the boat was new, the drinks, lunch, towels are provided. Great snorkelling. Loved it!!!
The walk was beautiful! The attendant was asked to change our date to a day with good weather. The guide at the first stop to see araia manta explained that he can not try to grab or pass the hand (I think it's obvious, but always good to say!), but when we stopped to see and nothing with the sharks in shallow waters he caught the sharks, I found it absurd he did this, besides being badly treating the animal is still by attitudes so that the accidents happen, so I found totally no idea and unnecessary what he did. Plus was great, lunch, walk, dives.
Beautiful day thanks to the team of Thierry and Taeva as guide and captain. Quality people, value for money and exceptional experience! I highly recommend if you want a lagoon discovery in quality and depth. I wish you as many Manta rays, sharks and thousands of colorful fish on the reef as our group. Take without fail lunch on the Motou, Candy!!
An unforgettable and extraordinary excursion, Service is excellent and our guide Alfrédo is very friendly. We went around the island in 6h. punctuated by lunch on a private motu, lunch was served by the owner of the motu. Lunch consisted of a buffet of local dishes and excellent. The dives were superb, I can only highly recommend The beach Excursion
