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!

Top quality tour guide and an efficient way to spend very limited time on the island - Our guide Natalia was one of the most effective, professional tour guides we've had anywhere on earth. Knowledgeable on everything spanning locations/geography, history of the area (native and western), local ecology, current cultural dynamics. And still kept our kids engaged with little things like showing them how to get to the meat of the coconuts we bought roadside, giving them bread to feed the ubiquitous chickens while explaining local botany to parents. The tour does involve a lot of driving (around the whole island), but was fine given the views and well thought out pacing.
