Hello, I am Natalia, the certified guide in Tahiti Island. I am looking forward to sharing my love for Tahiti with the guests of French Polynesia. Knowing, that Tahiti Island is a hub to all islands of French Polynesia, I recommend my tour as an introduction to the understanding of history and culture of this country and as the best way to get very practical and useful knowledge about French Polynesia. I love mixing my tours with interesting facts, anecdotes, different perspectives, and humor; I used to interact with my guest, adapting the given information to your personal needs. I always make sure my guests come first and will do my very best to give you the best day of your holiday. I like to see my guest admiring the nature marvels of Tahiti and I always do my best to present different aspects of Tahiti, of her island population and the rich cultural and historical heritage. You might be interested to get some details about me and my background, so here they are. After getting the master grade in the sociology of art and culture, I continued my studies in the language field - yes, I always loved to learn new things. Wanting to discover the world, one day I took a plunge and started to travel through the world with an ethnographic project to which I dedicated 10 years. I definitely enjoyed meeting new people; getting in touch with new cultures, that let me understand better the beauty and the diversity of this world and people leaving on our awesome planet. I was a traveler journalist and a blogger, I never could stop sharing my experience. After I arrived in French Polynesia, I really fell in love with this amazing country full of stunning beauty, mysticism and legends. After traveling across Polynesian island by a sailing boat, I was charmed by Polynesians who are very generous and friendly people, living in harmony with nature. I decided to stay and chosen Tahiti as my new home. Take the tour with me and let's discover the hidden secrets of the island. I am also ready to follow your ideas about your visit to Tahiti and to tailor your best tour together.

Tahiti tour: nature, history and love
Overview of your Papeete tour
Tahiti tour is truly special to me, and I’m excited to share my feelings about the miraculous places we’ll visit. For me, this tour is all about Nature’s Wonders, History, and Love. As we admire the magnificent, towering waterfall, we’ll delve into a Polynesian legend about the love story that inspired its creation. Prepare yourself to experience the roaring force of the Arohoho Blowhole. Next, we’ll feast our eyes on a stunning black sand beach with a breathtaking view of Mo’orea—a place where Marlon Brando fell in love with his co-star Tarita, who later became his wife, sparking the most dramatic chapter of their lives. At Venus Point, we’ll uncover the tales of Captain Cook’s adventures and explore the story of the mutineers from the Bounty, from their rise to their ultimate downfall. I’ll also share the poignant history of the first missionaries, who brought what they believed was a new civilization to the South Pacific—a transformation that instead led to a devastating impact on the local population.
Your Papeete tour itinerary
Begin your adventure with a scenic drive from Papeete, passing dramatic black lava rocks and crashing surf. Visit the Faarumai Waterfall, surrounded by lush greenery, cascading into a serene pool (25-min drive, 25-min visit). Next, marvel at the Faaone Twin Waterfalls, symbolizing masculine and feminine energies, resonating with Polynesian mana, the spiritual life force. We’ll then visit the Arohoho Blowhole, where waves roar through an underwater tunnel (closed in 2024, replaced by the Tahara’a Viewpoint). Explore Motu Anapa, a lava rock formation tied to Polynesian legend, and admire surfers riding its waves. At Pointe Tapahi, enjoy sweeping views of black lava beaches and a popular surf spot. Discover Venus Point, where Captain Cook observed the Venus Transit, and take in the history of early explorers. End at Tahara’a Lookout for panoramic views of Matavai Bay and Papeete. Fully customizable, this tour offers a tailored and unforgettable Tahitian experience.
