TAHITI

Excursions around the island
Islands are extremely different from each other, so a trip inland or around any island will bring a lot of impressions. In Tahiti, you will visit the harbor from which the discovery of Polynesia by navigators Wallis and Cook began, feed huge eels with your own hands, enjoy the view of powerful waterfalls and magnificent views, visit the Marais, not to mention museums, the likes of which are nowhere else.

During your walks around the islands, you may come across plantations of tiare, “tiare”. This fragrant flower serves as the basis for the preparation of monoi. Monoi is a tan strengthening and softening oil that went on the market in 1942 and is still one of the pillars of the economy, as well as the cultural symbols of Polynesia.

Shark Feeding
Be sure to feed these peaceful, sharp-toothed giants. Unforgettable impressions. Those who do not like thrills can simply watch the dolphins, here they are extremely fond of communicating. At the Beachcomber on the Moorea you will have such an opportunity.

Motu picnic
According to Printer Hall, each island is of volcanic origin. In some cases (Tahiti, Moorea, Raiatea, Bora Bora), extinct volcanoes still exist to this day. In other cases (Rangiroa, Manihi…) the volcano plunged into the ocean. But around the volcanic mountains there is always a coral belt that protrudes from the water. This belt is divided into several small islands called “motu”. The islets are almost flat and covered with coconut trees. Surrounded by virgin nature, the Tahitians will set up a fabulous table for you with all kinds of Tahitian dishes cooked on the motu itself in an earthen oven.

Here you will be introduced to the history, ways of cooking, tell a couple of local anecdotes and learn to dance if you have not had time to join the Tahitian dances in the village of Tiki Village, Tiki Village, on about. Moorea.

Tiki Village deserves special attention, as the cultural heritage of Polynesia is concentrated here. Here you can taste Tahitian dishes, observe the locals and their historical way of life, watch a concert and dance with fire, as well as order a wedding ceremony according to local customs.

In addition, you can book a helicopter tour, go fishing, take a trip in a canoe or a glass bottom boat.
