Best evening cruise in Bora Bora! - We had a great time with Manu and his crew getting to drink wine and watch the sunset. The entertainment was top shelf between the crew and passengers. Definitely take this drop if you want to see the stars and learn about Polynesian culture, AND have a lot of fun laughing. Everyone was so nice, we could have done this tour multiple times.

Beautiful evening - We went out with Manauu and Tahi they were interactive funny and informative. They told us about life on Bora Bora, sang and gave an informative session . There was a full moon but they were able to show us many constellations and explain the Polynesian migration! We had some bubbly fruit and canopies. 100% recommended

Polynesian stars - Booked this tour through the Royal Bora Bora Hotel. We were picked up from hotel dock and taken out on the lagoon to watch the sunset. Crew fed us with snack, champagne and beer. Then we were transported to a motu to have guide Patrick educate us on the Polynesian navigators and showed us how the stars were used to guide them. Captain Moana and Patrick both serenaded us with a ukelele and island songs in their own ancient language. With no light pollution it almost seemed like we could touch the heavens. Great trip for all ages.

An “AWE” inspiring tour! - This is an exceptional experience! Our guides were fun, knowledgeable, professional and provided exceptional information about the island, it’s people and of the sights in the night sky! A stunning boat ride, an exquisite sunset, a bit of bubbly with yummy canapés to a private island. Clean restrooms were a delightful addition to the ambiance, with well lit pathways to our comfy Adirondack chairs for max sky viewing pleasure!! Thanks to the team for a really romantic and memorable night!!

Exceptional service and kindness - This trip was one of the highlights of our month in French Polynesia! Tanya and her family took us out and there were just 2 of us!! We felt very special and cared for. Very informative. My only suggestion is to charge double!! Tour is way under priced for the level of professionalism and care given guests. We also took their 4x4 island tour and it was also excellent. Thanks so much Tanya, Lulu, and Captain.

Amazing Gazing - The Stargazing tour was amazing. We were given fresh coconut and sparkling wine to start After the sun went down we laid on the front of the boat to watch the stars come out. Tonya, our guide, was very knowledgeable and sweet. We had good conversation and we were able to get to know her and hear about her wonderful family. Tonya made our last night of vacation extra special. We can’t wait to go back.

Beautiful sunset tour, sadly no stars - I had a wonderful evening watching the sunset and sipping on champagne. Our guides were very friendly and provided a memorable evening out on the lagoon. The only thing missing was the stars since it was overcast. Otherwise, it was a wonderful evening set in an exceptionally beautiful setting.

Disappointed had to look a stars on a boat with a covered top. - We were supposed to go to a private island to look at the starts. Instead, they anchored the boat, which had a cover over the top. It was impossible to get a good view of the stars.
