Itinerary
Day 1 Fly USA to Papeete
Please note international air from the USA has not been included in the package price.
Once you clear customs and immigration, look for your name on the board. Your Tekura Tahiti representative will assist you to the vehicle for your transfer to your overnight hotel.
Papeete, the capital and commercial hub of French Polynesia, hosts the government offices, hospitals, banks, airline and travel agencies, boutiques and black pearl shops. The Central Market (Marché Central) is a must, located 1 block behind the waterfront. You will see traditional Tahitian crafts, flowers, fruits, fish and other produce. The waterfront is attractive, with a tree lined promenade along a marina with an international yachting community.
Day 2 Fly Papeete to Bora Bora
Please wait in the hotel lobby area for your transfer to Papeete airport for your flight to Bora Bora. Upon arrival you will be transferred to your accommodation by boat.
Bora Bora - Unquestionably the most mythical of the Pacific islands remains the island of all dreams. So much has been written about Bora Bora, and yet it is hard to find the right words to describe the magic that emanates from this island.
Seen from the air, the view has been compared to that of "a tiny emerald in a setting of turquoise, encircled by a sheltering necklace of sparkling pearls". The airport, built by US forces in 1942, is located on a palm fringed motu about 20 minutes by boat from the main village of Vaitape. The view of the main island from the airport is truly breathtaking, and as you travel across the spectacular lagoon you will soon understand why it is the main area of attraction for most visitors.
Days 3 Tour - Full day Lagoonarium & Shark Feeding
Travel around the island of Bora Bora by outrigger canoe, cruising the most beautiful lagoon in the world. A stop is made near the reef to wait for young sharks, which are attracted by the smell of fish thrown into the water. Equipped with snorkel gear, you may enjoy the underwater view of those sharks and the colorful corals around the site. From here the tour continues to the natural lagoonarium. Each kind of tropical fish has their own park: Rays and sharks, turtles, giant mussels, lobsters and many varieties of multi-colored fish. Fresh local fruits and coconut drinks will be offered, and you have time to walk around this small island, before the return to your hotel.
Days 4-6 At leisure, Bora Bora
This island offers a multitude of activities and excursions, one of the most popular being the shark's "breakfast" where from chest-deep water you watch local divers feed 4' to 5' reef sharks by hand. It's a lot of fun and totally safe. The same routine is done with a large group of friendly stingrays.
Tourist facilities are not too numerous, and understated enough so as not to alter the landscape's beauty.
Day 7 Fly Bora Bora to USA (Via Papeete)
Say goodbye to Tahitian paradise as you transfer by boat to the airport for your return journey to the USA.
