Day 2: Tahiti Island Activities - Street Food Experience
On this day, get ready to experience Tahiti's modern local street food culture with your private guide. In Tahitian, "matete" refers to a market where locals buy seasonal fruits, vegetables, and fish. You will visit local vendors and taste authentic local food, such as seasonal fruits, snacks, fish dishes, and juices, to name a few of the delicious tastings from the three different culinary cultures: Tahitian, Chinese, and French. Depending on the season and availability, you will experience a minimum of 10–12 tastings. You will also be visiting a few historical sites in Papeete City.
Operating days are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday (not available on major/bank holidays). The departure time is approximately 9:00 in the morning from city hall. The approximate length of the excursion is between 3 and 4 hours for a half-day tour.
After a delicious breakfast at the resort, be ready for a private guided island tour to explore the natural wonders of Tahiti. This experience is an introduction to the heart of the island of Tahiti in a comfortable 4WD vehicle. Your guide of the day shares information about the flora of the island and the use of plants in medicinal traditions, talks about the valley's flora and fauna, teaches about the island's geological history, and tells the stories and legends of long-age Tahitian chiefdoms. During the exploration, stop at natural pools and rivers for swimming. Eventually, the tour ends at the legendary "Lake Vaihiria," home to the sacred eel that brought the coconut tree to life. The breathtaking viewpoints are only going to make this experience vivid and colorful. This itinerary is subject to change based on weather conditions.

The trip was terrific with great planning on your part. Most of the adventures were not mainstream and somewhat off the beaten path which made it especially enjoyable!! We felt taken care of and you all were readily available to respond to questions and issues. I would highly recommend your company and friends have already expressed interest based on our pictures and excitement.

Claudia does an excellent job of communicating. HOWEVER…you paperwork requirements are constipated — a real impediment to doing business. Fire the lawyers or accountants over that.
