Papeete – A Slice of Island Paradise
The lush palms and tall grasses of Papeete shimmer with emerald hues as your flight descends into the airport.

Detailed Description
The honeymoon of your dreams in French Polynesia becomes a reality during your 12-day Moorea, Bora Bora, Taha’a, and Tahiti itinerary. Your romantic adventure begins with your arrival in Papeete, the main town on the island of Tahiti. Your private transfer greets you at the airport and escorts you to a private resort overlooking the black sands of the tranquil island. The remainder of the day is yours to relax on the serene beach, linger in the waters of the quiet pool, or visit the vibrant marketplace in the heart of town that combines the island cultures from across French Polynesia.
The next morning, you travel into the heart of the jungle terrain on a private 4x4 excursion in search of waterfalls, lagoons, and spectacular island views. Your private transfer greets you at the hotel and leads you on a short ferry ride to the island of Moorea. The tropical mountain landscape drops into stunning valleys. You arrive in the comforts of your beachside resort with a stroll through the exotic gardens connected to the nearly 20 acres of the property. Then, you visit the Moorea Dolphin Center for insight into the behavior of the dolphins. Continue your exploration of the island gardens and enjoy the aromas of a historical vanilla plantation.
Take to the mountains for pristine views and a fun adventure while on a scenic jeep safari in search of flora, avifauna, and panoramas, eventually ending at a pineapple distillery. Next, you fly from Moorea to Bora Bora. Your private transfer escorts you along the water to a narrow islet off the coast of the main island framed by a lagoon to the west and the South Pacific to the east. Upon arriving at your resort, you can partake in a couple’s spa treatment to ease into the unforgettable luxury of the island. Dive into the ocean to snorkel amongst the coral, schools of fish, and giant manta rays. In the evening, you have a romantic couple’s dinner, listening to the water lap against the beach.
Circle the coastal roads and discover hidden coves or inland trails on a full-day bicycle tour of Bora Bora to enjoy the island at your preferred pace. You travel to the island of Raiatea and continue by private boat to the small atoll of Taha’a. Your stunning overwater-bungalow offers pristine views of the horizon and images of the palm forest lining the sands. The remainder of the day is at your leisure to bask in the beauty of your resort and the life of Taha’a.
Wake up to the sounds of the ukulele and a romantic room service breakfast brought to you via canoe. In the afternoon, you explore a family-owned vanilla plantation and pearl farm. Treasure a day of drift snorkeling that takes you from the shoreline over the coral gardens near your resort. In the afternoon, you take to the water on a catamaran for a private sunset cruise offering the best views of the sky, island, and water.
