Tahiti: East OR West Coast Tour (Half Day)
Description
Explore Tahiti on a half-day exploration on the coast of your choice. Depending on your preferences, opt for the wilder, greener East Coast or the West Coast, famous for its beaches and spectacular sunsets. If you choose the East Coast, you will be immersed in a wilderness where the mountains flow into the ocean. You will discover the mythical Point Venus and its historic lighthouse, the impressive cliffs sculpted by wind and waves, and the peaceful waterfalls hidden in the heart of tropical vegetation. If you opt for the West Coast, the journey will take you along white sandy beaches and crystal clear lagoons. Stop at the Maraa Caves, mysterious cavities surrounded by greenery, at the Tahiti Museum (optional), then continue to the famous surf spots, where the waves come to embrace the reef with power. And finally, you will end up with the Vahipai Water Garden.

We had a wonderful travel experience with Phillipe...it rained some but didnt ruin the experience. I would recommend this tour for everyone.
Oh thank you Kimberly !! But you had a umbrella 😉😜🤙
This review is of the second half day of our tour with Maxim I. This tour was of the southern island, Tahiti Iti. Max continued with his enlightenment Tahiti and Polynesia as we toured the southern island. We even learned a few Tahitian words. Max is very accommodating. We had a flight that evening, so we carried out luggage with us. Max saw to it that we got there on time. We drove all the way down the coast of the island to the site of the 2024 Surfing Olympics at Teahupoʻo reef pass. Max was deservedly proud of the fact that there were staged in Tahiti.
Thank you very much for your very good comments !! Hope to see you back in Tahiti
Thierry gave us a great 1/2 day tour of the East down to Tahiti Iti stopping at some classic local sites. Very friendly & informative.
Hello Mark. Thank you for Thierry. He is one of my partners. I know he do good job, like me !😜 Happy you enjoyed your visit. Hope to see you back in Tahiti 🌴🏄🏝🤙
Outstanding half day seeing West Coast. Nice variety of sites to visit, including beaches, gardens, waterfalls, and caves. Guide was extremely knowledgable about the history and the vegetation. Guide was very friendly and communicated well.
Thank you Mickaël for your comments. Hope to see you again in Tahiti 😉🤙
We cannot recommend this tour enough! It was a great way to see the island without renting a car. We did the four hour, east coast option. Philippe was a wonderful guide, he shared a lot of local insight coupled with humor. Our trip was private and just the four of us in a beautiful AC’d BMW. He picked us up at the hotel directly and was happy to drop us in the city center afterwards when we requested. He has a full day option that also includes a boat ride to see the surfer in the huge waves. We didn’t go this time around but definitely will next time!
Oh thank you friends for this very nice comment !! If you enjoyed your trip, I am very happy !! So hope to see you back and next time, taxi boat at Teahupo’o Thank you again 🤙🌴🏄♀️
Our tour guide and driver, Édouard, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and always had something interesting to tell us. He seemed like an expert on local plants, trees, and flowers as well as pearl production. It was a nice comfortable car with good A!C. He tailored the 1/2 day tour to our liking and was efficient every step of the way. I would recommend this tour and provider. One suggestion is to use name signs at the port for easy identification.
Thank you Mickaël for your friendly comments !! I will tell Edouard. Hope to see back in Tahiti 😉🏝🤙🏄♀️
My husband, cousin, his wife and myself went on this tour together. The van was plenty big and super comfortable. Our guide took us to places that were beautiful and explained so many things we saw. He was fantastic. Would strongly recommend this tour.
Thank you Barbara for your nice comments !! Very happy you had a great tour. Hope to see you back in Tahiti 😉 Friendly 🌴🏄♂️🤙
Loved the one on one, we had with Phillippe. We enjoyed his enthusiasm for Tahiti, and highly recommend him.
Thank you Karen ! Hope to see you back in Tahiti 🏄♀️🌴🤙
Phillipe arrived in a timely manner. His vehicle was great for 4 people. He tailored our day based on what we wanted to see while also offering suggestions.
