Why is
Tahiti one of my favorite places on the planet? It is so incredibly beautiful with the crystal clear waters of the protected lagoons,
the jagged peaks that the clouds rest on, then you’ve got
the people and culture! It all paints a picture
of perfection that you will fall in love with. I have
brought groups to Tahiti 14 times now. On our last 3 trips we actually snorkeled with humpback
whales and we will have that chance again!
This
trip will have it all with our 10-nights of island hopping
bliss.
We
start off with 5-nights on Moorea. This is a small island that is mostly unchanged over the last 50 years. It's quaint
pensions and cute restaurants, palm trees that dip over
the water and the dreamy, multi-hued water in the lagoons
that the reef protects. We’ve been given an incredible
group discount at the beautiful Manava
Resort, a truly upscale, 4-star resort situated
in a picturesque setting with an infinity pool, white
sand beach and over-water bungalows. We've
stayed here many times now
and
everyone always loves it.
There’s plenty of great sightseeing
and tours to do in Moorea including scuba diving
and their famous shark feeding,
snorkeling with sting rays, dolphins and whales, visiting
off-shore
motu’s (small islands), 4-wheel jeep safari, motor
scooter rentals where you can
ride around the whole island or just relaxing by the pool.
Once
again, this resort is walking distance to several great
restaurants that are not overly expensive. Restaurants will
even send vans to pick people up.
The
stated price is with Garden Rooms but we also have Beach
Bungalows and Overwater Bungalows reserved. See info below
regarding upgrades. All have air conditioning, television
and mini bar. The garden pool bungalows offer their own
private plunge pool! If you’ve always fantasized
about staying in an overwater bungalow, this is your best
chance with our group discount. Our stay will also include
the fabulous breakfast buffet.

Next
up is 5-nights on Bora
Bora. We will fly on prop planes soon after we land in Papeete.
Our stay here is at a great
hotel called Mai Tai
Hotel. We've brought several groups here as well and
it's just perfect. Most people will get oceanview rooms
(sign up early to guarantee) but you may also upgrade
at this hotel to beachfront or over-water bungalows (see
info below). It’s
the perfect location where we are able to walk to several
restaurants in the neighborhood rather than depend on the
resort. Yes, it's true that Bora Bora and Moorea CAN be
expensive, but done right, where you can walk to local restaurants,
it is no more expensive than home. We'll have more great
tours planned here including a 4-wheel drive tour, a wave
runner tour, snorkeling circle island tour where you can
pet sting rays, scuba diving and more.
Bora Bora is an island that is completely magical. Undoubtedly
the most celebrated island in the South Pacific - Bora Bora
is French Polynesia's leading lady. Her beauty is unrivaled
and her fame, unwavering. Bora Bora is one of the few places
on earth that everyone hopes to witness in their lifetime—and
once you see it, you are forever enamored. The inevitable
love
affair
with this island begins right before you touch down. The
view from the plane window is a moment you will not soon
forget. Have your camera in hand as you begin your descent
and prepare for the moment when iconic Mount Otemanu comes
into view. From that point on, each experience will only
continue to exceed even your highest expectations. Once
seen, Bora Bora is never
forgotten. From the day you arrive until the moment you
part ways, you will be in awe of how her soaring mountain
peaks, turquoise lagoon and luxuriant overwater bungalows
somehow look even more spectacular than the pictures.
Lastly,
we fly back to the main island of Tahiti called Papeete
where we'll enjoy a nice, half-day tour of Tahiti in the
afternoon before we fly home that night.
We’ll
be flying non-stop (just 8-1/2 hours) from LA to
Tahiti on Tuesday
night to spend a very full 11-days in paradise
returning the morning of July 4th. We get terrific group
rates from our hotels due to our frequent visits over many
years so this really is a very good
price for this luxury vacation. $200 deposit will sign you
up.
