Full-day Bora Bora lagoon cruise with guided snorkeling for stingrays, black-tip reef sharks, and manta rays plus lunch on a private motu.
“Tour was great. The weather was not the best, water was choppy. Manu and Moana were great hosts and we ended up being able to see everything even if the stingrays stops were choppy and not as clear. 100% would recommend. I would recommend bringing your own snorkeling gear if you have it. I will not dock them for not having the best snorkeling gear since they provide for everyone. But I do feel the experience would have been better had I brought better gear. Manu was willing to record some underwear video for me when I was struggling without any floatation devices. Family dinner was good! Not best tasting…”

“Due to the ship arriving slightly late, we missed our originally assigned tour guide. By chance, we ended up with Hine instead. Unexpectedly, she brought an unexpectedly wonderful experience to our rainy day trip. She proved to be sincere, kind-hearted, and full of enthusiasm, showing special care for the elderly. She demonstrated exceptional patience with my family members and showed thoughtful consideration throughout. Despite the awful weather, we enjoyed constant laughter and joy along the way. Her presence made the entire experience truly worthwhile. We all adored her - she made us feel such warmth and familiarity, just like family..”
