Moorea Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

We didn’t get do the jet ski because of dangerous high winds, but the ATV was a lot of fun and we went to some great overlooks and learned a little about the culture along the way.The company refunded the jet ski portion of the trip promptly.

Fantastic morning whale watching with Christophe and Ivy. Very experienced and knowledgeable. We were lucky enough to swim 3 times with whales. Detailed briefing as we left dock so we knew how to behave and stay safe in the water. Welcomed snacks and drinks between swims. Highly recommend.

I’m unbelievable once in a lifetime experience! Olivia and Stephane were amazing!! so grateful for the knowledge and expertise to make it a safe and fun experience. The whales were spectacular and out of this world.

A Wonderful ExperienceThe staff were excellent, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was great. Our captain was friendly and made the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this company!

This was a great tour. Our driver,Ron, was amazing. He provided lots of local information and history. He adjusted the itinerary to accommodate some bad weather, allowing us to see all the sights under the best conditions. I would highly recommend this tour and driver.

We had the most amazing day in Moorea on this private catamara tour. The water and landscape views were out of this world. Along our cruise we saw turtles, flying fish and the ultimate highlight were the spinner dolphins! I absolutely recommend this private tour 100%!!

AMAZING EXPERIENCE! And I don’t mean just the whale encounters. Our guide Lise and our captain Thibaut were amazing! They did everything they could to get us near the whales and just when we thought we were going to run out of luck and time they decided to go overtime and try one more time! And boy did it pay off! We were able to swim with a mother and her calf!! And it was the cutest, most playful little baby! It was an experience we will never forget. We did other whale tours with other companies in Moorea but this experience was by far the best! They really went above and beyond to give us the best chances to swim with these magical creatures and took really great care of us. We will be forever grateful for their efforts and kindness.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ **Fantastic ATV Adventure – Highly Recommend!**We had such a wonderful experience with the Temana & Moorea Activities Centre ATV adventure! I did the tour with my 9-year-old daughter and we both absolutely loved it.The tour was really well organised, with plenty of stops along the way to take in the most beautiful lookouts and scenery around Moorea. We also stopped at a little local mini market where we tasted delicious homemade jams and smoothies, and we ended up buying some beautiful, really good-quality sarongs.There was also cold water available at many of the stops, which was such a thoughtful touch, especially in the heat.We were so pleased we chose this tour. It was a fantastic way to see more of the island, experience some local flavours and have a bit of adventure together. We would definitely recommend it, especially for families.One tip — if you have time, **book a jet ski tour to finish your day!** We didn't book one, but we heard so many people at the centre raving about their jet ski experience afterwards that we wished we had added it on!Thank you Temana & Moorea Activities Centre for such a memorable day! 🌴🤙🏼

Great outing with a funny and friendly team! We recommend it!!

Yoann was our guide and Papi Niko was our driver and a second scout. Great guys but Papi does not speak English. Yoann is very knowledgeable about the whales and their behaviors, which was helpful in predicting when they would dive and when they would come back up for air. We located a mother and her baby pretty quickly but there were already 3 other boats there so we had to wait our turn. Be patient, there could be a lot of waiting during this excursion. When we entered the water, you have to swim quickly and it can be tiring but we had wetsuits and were very buoyant so no issues. The water was flat and very calm the day we went.Other tours that were there were not following the guidelines and that did not help with the whales behavior. They were chasing the whale and not remaining in a tight group as you are supposed to do. Yoann spoke to them to no avail.We did swim near the whale and it was awesome. The other groups behavior kept her further away than she probably would have been but it was still amazing to be in the water with her. She was stunning to watch and it made you realize just how small we really are! We only went in the water once, due to regulations set by the authorities, but t hat was all we needed, we swam with the humpback! I would recommend this excursion, it is worth the cost and Yoann is excellent at what he does.

Worth a booking!! We had such a great time with our guide, Mata. He was so easy going and really seemed to enjoy showing us around.

We had a wonderful trip around Moorea with Willie our guide, he was kept very busy explaining in French then again in English! The road up Magic mountain was a little rough, but Willie took it very slowly and we made it safely to the top. Fabulous views! Would recommend this trip.

It was challenging swimming in open water. But the reward was great to experience sharing a moment with one of the largest mammals on the planet.

Kiki was a great guide on the water showing us the two bays and helping us find turtles, black tip sharks and rays in the water. He knew the water and respected the sea life. You spend lots of time on a jet ski moving fast so you should be comfortable on the water. Thrilling to encounter a stingray. Incredible day. Highly recommend!

It was an amazing experience. We got to see the whales and swim close to them. For sure an unforgettable trip! Also the team, captain Mahai and Frank were very professional and helped us throughout the tour. Really recommend!

Splendid day on the lagoon accompanied by an incredible crew!This excursion allows you to learn more about the island of Moorea, its landscapes, its lagoon, and its culture.Moana Ori and Mamaia are adorable, and will turn this excursion into a true human adventure. Do not hesitate to talk with them, ask them questions about life in Polynesia, they will answer you with a smile and kindness.Book with your eyes closed and enjoy this day ✨
