The other two cascades were not explored during this tour, as they require proper hiking gear and a more demanding trail.

Frebrez was an amazing tour guide. He is very informative and knowledgeable about the Tahiti culture. He goes above and beyond to make his patrons have all the necessities- water, umbrellas, and pineapple. :) I highly recommend using this tour company for your next Papeete tour.

Tour from east to west of the Island of Tahiti. Our guide Antoinette generously provided us with a lot of information, very relevant and super interesting. A tour, a must-see, to truly connect with the culture, history, and beautiful landscapes of Tahiti. I highly recommend this tour.
merci beaucoup pour ce retour, content que savoir que le tour fut riche en informations sur notre culture et histoire Mauruuru
This was a great way to see many sights and learn about Tahiti. Antoinette was wonderful! She knows so much history and shared it all with us. The stops we made were beautiful. The Botanical Garden was my favorite. This is a must for every visitor, hopefully you will be lucky and get Antoinette as your guide. We had a great time with our “chicken whisperer”!
Thank you so much Rosie and Margret! We’re thrilled Antoinette made your Tahiti tour so memorable with her stories and the beautiful stops,
Antoinette was a fabulous tour guide. We saw basically the whole island of Tahiti. We visited so many beautiful places along our tour from waterfalls to the botanical gardens. She went over & above by stopping at various shops along the way, treating us to the fabulous fruits of the island & showing of the way to make it even sweeter with this red powder. She stopped & bought us baquettes to feed the fish, chickens & eels! What a full day of fabulous experiences we had. If I am ever lucky enough to come back to this beautiful island paradise, I hope to find her again.
Ia ora na Debbie! Thank you for this wonderful review, we’re so happy Antoinette made your day unforgettable with all the beautiful spots, fresh fruits, and special touches! Mauruuru roa, Tahiti Eden Tours
