Itinerary
Day 1
Day 1
Papeete
Depart 22:00
Papeete is the spirited, slightly ragged capital of French Polynesia — not the languorous paradise of travel-poster imagination, but a working harbour city of fresh produce markets, baguette bakeries, and Tahitian outrigger canoe clubs that provides an authentic counterpoint to the pearl-still lagoons of Bora Bora and Moorea nearby. The daily Marché de Papeete is the city's essential experience, its stalls piling high with vanilla pods, monoi-scented oils, black pearls, and the most exuberant floral arrangements in the Pacific. Moorea, visible across the Sea of the Moon and just 30 minutes by fast ferry, offers a dramatically quieter alternative. The dry season, May through October, brings the finest weather.
Day 2
Day 2
Moorea
Arrive 06:30Depart 18:00
Moorea is a volcanic island in French Polynesia, separated from Tahiti by a narrow channel known as the Sea of the Moon, celebrated for its twin cathedral-like bays, jagged emerald peaks, and lagoons of almost surreal turquoise clarity. Visitors should not miss savouring authentic *poisson cru* at a beachside roulotte and exploring Ōpūnohu Bay by outrigger canoe or guided hiking trail. The ideal season to visit is May through October — the dry, austral winter — when skies are reliably clear, humidity is gentle, and humpback whales pass through the surrounding waters on their annual migration.
Day 3
Day 3
Fakarava
Arrive 12:01Depart 17:00
Fakarava is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve atoll in French Polynesia's Tuamotu Archipelago, offering some of the world's most spectacular diving — including drift dives through shark-filled passes — and pristine pink-sand beaches. Must-dos include diving the Garuae "wall of sharks," visiting a black pearl farm, and stargazing from an uninhabited motu. April through November brings the driest weather, with June and July featuring the legendary grouper spawning.

Easter Island — Rapa Nui to its Polynesian people — stands as one of the most remote and compelling destinations on Earth, a volcanic outpost 3,700 kilometres from the nearest continental shore, its hillsides and coastline populated by nearly 900 monumental stone moai whose purpose and method of construction remain the subject of ongoing fascination. The UNESCO-listed Rapa Nui National Park encompasses the island's most significant archaeological sites, including the quarry of Rano Raraku and the ceremonial platform of Ahu Tongariki. November through April brings the warmest, driest conditions for exploring this extraordinary living testament to Polynesian civilisation.
