Perfect way to end our trip to french Polynesia. - I can’t say enough how much we enjoyed our day with Max, our guide for our half day tour of Tahiti. He met us at the ferry terminal and took us on a wonderful half day tour around the island. His knowledge about the history, geology, geography and current and past events regarding French Polynesia was astounding. The stops we made at waterfalls, botanical gardens and other wonderful vistas were a perfect compliment. When the tour was done he dropped us off at the airport in time for our evening flight. I would highly recommend this tour for any one wanting a comprehensive tour of Tahiti.

Wonderful private day tour with Natalia! - We had a wonderful half-day private tour with Natalia around Tahiti after a cruise. Aside from seeing the major sites - the waterfalls, water park and more - we visited the Museum of Tahiti and the Islands. Natalia was extremely informative, knowledgeable fun to share the day with, and flexible regarding our schedule. Her English was very clear as well. Highly recommend a day tour with Natalia!

Spectacular Knowledgeable Experience - I bought the tour on line. That's usually a crapshoot (there were the usual recommendations), but this turned out to be far and away above expectations! Natalia gave my wife and me a wonderful tour of the island with insights into the history of human arrival and habitation, in depth knowledge of fauna and flora, a great view of a surfing beach, introduction to the incredibly friendly feral dogs and human acclimated wild fowl, eels, and koi, not to mention the detailed tour of the botanical gardens and a 30 story waterfall. Wow!

Wonderful, informative circle island tour of Tahiti - We were on a cruise around French Polynesia and our itinerary changed due to the weather, so we had an extra day in Tahiti. I was lucky enought to book Natalia at the last minute for a 5 hour tour around the island. She communicated well and met us right outside the cruise terminal with a sign with my name on it. We hopped in her very comfortable 7 passenger van and discussed our interests. Heading out and continuing throughout the day Natalie gave us an excellent description of the history of the island, the people and sights. We stopped at many wonderful sights where she described the flowers animals and background of what we were seeing. It was a great day and we really enjoyed seeing so much of and learning about Tahiti. I highly recommend Natalie if you are looking for a great tour of Tahiti!
