Itinerary
Day 1 Fly USA to Papeete On arrival you are met and greeted with a traditional flower lei and transferred to your overnight accommodation in Papeete.
Transfer to the domestic terminal for your flight to Moorea. Less than 10 minutes away from Tahiti by air or less than one hour by ferry are the deep, spectacular bays and white sand beaches of Moorea. The craggy volcanic peaks, reflected in the tranquil waters of Cook's Bay and Oponohu Bay, rise like a shark's jaw from the island's basaltic base. The lush mountain slopes are covered with rain forest or pineapple plantations, and white sand beaches border crystalline lagoons. Day 3 Tour – Moorea half day circle island tour with Belvedere Moorea, which means 'Yellow Lizard' in Tahitian, is a triangular island and the northern side is punctuated by two large bays – Cooks and Opunohu. Stop at a Pineapple plantation to learn about this famous and most important resource on Moorea. Continue to the Belvedere lookout area for spectacular views. En route, stop at a 'Marae' (ancient open air temple) to learn about the ancestral customs. Arrive at the Belvedere and experience the panoramic views overlooking the Cook and Oponohu Bays and over the Rotui Mountain. Also enjoy a visit to the Agricultural School and discover the variety of local fruits, trees and flowers. Days 4-5 At leisure, Moorea Only 40 miles around on a well paved road along the shore, this dramatic and lush island can easily be circled by car, scooter or on bicycle for the more physically inclined. You can also enjoy horseback riding along the beach or the interior, hikes to hidden waterfalls or visit the Belvedere's very spectacular scenic view point. For a truly spectacular Tahitian Show, the best anywhere in Polynesia, go to the Tiki Village where you will enjoy a memorable lagoon-side dinner and spectacular show. The owner, Olivier Briac has also made this unique Tahitian environment famous for his spectacular Royal Tahitian Weddings which have been a favorite of movie stars such as Dustin Hoffman as well as the international jet-set. There is no town to speak-of on Moorea, but you will find a few areas along the road with clusters of shops selling miscellaneous goods, local crafts and colorful hand printed fabrics (pareos). Day 6 Fly Moorea to Bora Bora Transfer to the airport for your flight to Bora Bora, where you are met and transferred to your accommodation. Day 7 Lagoonarium and Shark feeding full day tour Travel around the island of Bora Bora near the reef to wait for young sharks.

Days 11-13 At leisure, Taha’a Sharing a common lagoon with Raiatea and accessible only by boat, Tahaa produces about 80% of all vanilla in French Polynesia. Taha’a is the only island in the Society Islands that can be completely circled by boat inside the protected lagoon. With its many deep bays and small deserted motus on the reef, Taha’a is an ideal island to escape the 20th century. Here you can explore the reef and discover the beauty of its multicolored lagoon, enjoy a picnic on a deserted motu or go hiking in the mountains and through the vanilla plantations and learn the mystery of these "orchids". With only a handful of guest houses and two small hotels, Taha’a is slowly awakening to tourism and yet it still maintains an authentic flavor of Polynesia. Day 14 Fly Taha’a to USA Transfer back to Raiatea airport by boat, where you board your flight to Papeete to connect to your international flight to the USA. Hotels Papeete
