Pauline is an amazing guide! I've been blessed to have done a great number of tours around the world and this one is at the top of my list.
Pauline was extremely informative and truly passionate about her country. She was able to relay information in an engaging style without making it seem overwhelming.
Pauline went above and beyond and even provided me with an island driving tour for the next day. I throughly enjoyed that as well and would highly recommend renting a car and driving the loop around Tahiti. Such a breath taking country. Thank you again Pauline!

Pauline is a beautiful person and will teach you many interesting things!
I had a wonderful time with Pauline. Booking and meeting for the tour was easy and Pauline is very communicative. I highly recommend this tour even if Tahiti is just your jump off point to other islands. I learned so much history, about local customs, religion and plants and animals. I can't recommend this tour enough!

BRILLIANT WALKING TOUR
Absolutely brilliant tour. Pauline delightfully shared the history and culture of Papeete & Tahiti & French Polynesia. Pauline took us to interesting areas of the city that we would never have found. We were enrapt for the whole tour. Thank you Pauline! xx

Captivating my guests and showing them a side of the city they wouldn't find on their own is exactly what I strive for. Thank you for choosing Papeete Discovery, and I hope to welcome you back to our islands someday! Warmest regards, Pauline

Papeete with Pauline
We thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour with Pauline. She shared so much history and data for the people of French Polynesia and how it came to be. Papeete is a bustling city but we got to visit the quite serene walking areas of government buildings, such as the queens baths etc. We also wandered the market and she shared the local products and a vendor gave us a sample. She answered questions we had, shared maps and used a well done iPad power point to assist. We were lucky to have a tour of just us. Highly recommend.

This was a great tour. The guide Pauline was very knowledgeable about the history of Tahiti and the city of Papeete. She used her tablet to show us many photos and explain many sights. And she spoke excellent English.
