Sailing tour introduction

Sailing round-trip from Papeete port, Tahiti, uncover the world-famous Society islands of French Polynesia by small ship. Bora Bora, Taha'a, Moorea, Huahine, Raiatea - islands sculpted by sky-piercing, moss-green peaks and lined with vivid turquoise lagoons. Island hopping allows you to see every landscape, from geometric ridges strung with waterfalls on the high islands to flat, desert-like atolls where lagoons far outsize the landmass. There are many sides to the Islands of Tahiti, yet they are all connected by Mana. Mana is a life force and spirit that surrounds us. You can see it. Touch it. Taste it. Feel it. And from the moment you arrive, you will understand why locals say the islands are embraced by Mana.

Your knowledgeable guide will share Moorea's rich history, vibrant culture, and diverse ecology. Explore the lush Opunohu Valley, ascend Mt. Tohi'e'a, and visit Cook's and Opunohu Bays. Stop at the Moorea Fruit Juice Factory to taste refreshing juices and liqueurs made from local fruits. After the tour, enjoy free time to explore Moorea before we set sail for Raiatea after dinner.

Day 3 Raiatea

Raiatea

Early in the morning, we sail across the lagoon to reach Raiatea, known as “faraway heaven” and “sky with soft light.” Once called Havai’i, Raiatea is considered the homeland of the ancient Polynesians. Enjoy a variety of optional activities, such as a Faaroa River tour and Motu beach break, or visit the Anapa family Pearl farm. We will spend the night in port.

Day 4 Taha'a

Taha'a

Around noon we'll sail to the island of Taha'a, which shares a magnificent lagoon with Raiatea Island. The fertile island is covered with banana, watermelon and coconut groves.  The island also acts as a vast natural greenhouse for the treasured Tahitian vanilla orchid. Our optional half-day excursion will allow us to explore the beautiful interior of the island by 4x4 vehicle. Taste the local fruit and admire breathtaking views of the magnificent turquoise waters of Ha'amene Bay. You may also visit to a pearl farm and a traditional vanilla plantation. In the afternoon, you will have plenty of time for swimming and snorkeling. Late departure to Bora Bora. Overnight at sea.

Day 7 Huahine

Huahine

Huahine, once home to Tahitian royalty, is considered the cradle of Polynesian culture. The two islands maintain the largest concentration of ancient marae (temples) in French Polynesia, some of which are believed to date back to around 700 AD. Huahine is a colossal tropical jungle burgeoning with coconut plantations, vanilla orchids, banana groves, breadfruit trees and watermelon fields. Our optional halfday tour takes us by 4x4 vehicle around the island to visit the small villages of Fare and Maeva, an archaeological site, and a vanilla plantation. After lunch we'll set sails to Papeete. Overnight at sea.

Customer reviews

How customer reviews and ratings work

We use the Average with Prior (also known as Bayesian Average) to calculate the total rating for each sailing cruise

Since new cruises could have very few reviews, each review can significantly impact the average score, potentially leading to misleading representations of the total score (e.g., one very positive or very negative review skewing the overall rating). To mitigate this, we use a "prior" or "default" score.

This means that each cruise, by default, starts with a rating of 4, which is calculated from 5 hypothetical reviews, each rated 4. This assumption provides a baseline level of performance that is neutral-to-positive.

For example, if a new cruise receives a 5-star review, the total rating will be adjusted to 4.17. Here's how it is calculated: (4 × 5) + 5 = 25 and then divided by the total number of reviews 6 (5 default + 1 actual review), resulting in 4.17

As more reviews come in, the weight of the actual reviews increases, and the influence of the prior diminishes.
