Thought I'd give a heads up. I checked the currency rate and found that paying for the excursion in (their) local currency will save you approximately $14 each. That would be $30 per couple. Of course I'm comparing US $'s. Might be different depending where you're from..

Wow! This has been great to hear that a few Olivians will be on this adventure! I look forward to meeting everyone.

We have not decided what we are doing for the rest of the time in Bora Bora as our budget for excursions is a little tight. Still waiting to hear what excursions from the Paul Gauguin will be offered this time for some of the other stops. There are a few that we have looked at on their website that we may want to consider if offered. Otherwise the 4x4 adventure is one we are considering, so thank you to Teresa & Julie for posting that.

Have a great day!

Hi Alison and Joanne

Thanks for putting the info up about this tour. We were thinking of doing this one but it will be great to do it with some of our PG cruisemates.

I just sent an email to the company requesting for us to be added on. They might be able to fit us on.

Our plans for BB are to do this trip in the morning of our first day then 4x4 trip around the island (we have put info about this on the Olivia forum and are still looking for 4 more people to join us.) then we are going to go to Bloody Marys for a drink.

Then on our 2nd day in BB, we are going to do the waverunner trip in the morning and head over to the PG private motu in the afternoon.

There is so much to see and do - 2 days isnt enough!

Will let you know if we are on the trip.

Alison,

Thanks for sharing the info about this excursion. I'm officially on the reservation list. Of all the snorkeling excursions I've looked at this appears to be the best of them and the price can't be beat especially when Laura mentioned that all the beverages are included in the price of the tour.

The Tahiti trip is getting better and better!!!!

Welcome aboard!

That is great news, I look forward to meeting with any ladies from our cruise. Now it is just the part about being patient that we have to cope with.

Thank you I had emailed them last night about the same time as when I asked how you were able to book. Hopefully I'll hear something back soon.

Hope theres not a requirement on having to have 2 people to book like some of the tour operators have..

Thanks for all the info about this tour as I was trying to find the best place to snorkel whit in Bora Bora..

With the time change it depending on when I emailed them as to when I received a response, but usually by the next day at the latest.

How long did it take after you emailed to hear back from them?

Click on the icon that looks like a phone on the right side of the website and their contact info will pop up.

There is no email address on the website;nothing to click on to contact them. I went on Facebook and plugged in their name and sent them a message but never heard anything back. Sorry but am going to need your help - do you have an email address for them?

Thanks, Sondra

Hello Ladies!

Great to have some more Olivia women on board, we look forward to meeting you! We also hardly ever book outside of the cruise line excursions for the same reason. We definitely wanted to go out on day one in Bora Bora so we did not have to worry and can get a great overview of the area.

For anyone else booking all you need to do is e-mail the company directly via their website. Laura at the office is great and will take care of you.

Have a great day!

Thanks

Hey, we're in! My partner and I are avid snorkelers and this sounds great! I hope another couple joins us so it will be 6 Olivians. Usually don't book excursions outside the cruise line for fear of being late and them not waiting for us but since we're spending 2 nights in Bora Bora no fear about this. Thanks for sharing this and look forward to meeting you both and BEING IN TAHITI!
