Let's feel together the whispers of ancient spirits, protectors of the place while visiting the Polynesian stone temple. Breathing the air of Vaipahi water garden and following the sacred path, going through water springs with its clearest water, we feel chosen - 100 years ago; only high priests had the right to walk down this magical place.

The views that we will see during the tour are majestic. Every time driving around the island, I contemplate gorgeous landscapes covered with lush vegetation. A great pleasure for me to share my admiration with guests.
