Must do for a history overview! - Great tour! It was a little difficult finding the tourism office, but Christian waited for us to find it which we really appreciated. He is extremely knowledgeable about the history and city. We did this on the first day and I'm glad we did, because we got a good overview of the city. The tour lasted a little over 3 hours, but Christian dropped us off right at a lunch restaurant.

Excellent and Enlightening Tour of Papeete - Christian is an extremely knowledgable and friendly guide who provided an authentic and very worthwhile experience in Papeete. We learned a great deal about Papeete’s lost history and changes over the centuries. Christian also connected that history to modern life in Papeete via food, customs, local art, and his own city experience. We highly recommend Christian to learn about Papeete in addition to enjoying the rest of the beautiful islands!

Fun and informative tour! - Excellent tour with Christian in Papeete! It’s my guess that this city is more of a jumping off point for lot of travelers traveling to the other islands. However, we spent two days in Papeete before our cruise and took this tour on our first day. So glad we did! We learned so many things about the culture and history of the islands. Plus, we got a great introduction to the city itself and helpful recommendations for food and drinks from Christian. He’s exceptionally knowledgeable, definitely passionate and provides an excellent and fun tour. Highly recommend this for anybody with a few hours or days until Tahiti!

Do NOT skip this tour on Tahiti - You will love it! - This was an excellent fun tour by our passionate, funny & knowledgeable tour guide, Christian, who opened up aspects of Papeete & Tahiti that we would never have seen or known about otherwise. Christian is deeply versed in the history & culture of Tahiti. It was fascinating learning about the continued influence the French have on the culture and history of the Polynesians in this part of the world. If you're short on time in Papeete, Christian's tour is a great way to get the most from your trip.

Great tour of Papeete with a very knowledgeable guide! - Really comprehensive tour of the best sites in Papeete with our very knowledgeable guide and excellent ambassador for Tahiti, Christian. We had great photo opportunities and learned all about the history and culture of Papeete and Tahiti. We ended with a wonderful lunch (not provided by the tour) at an oceanside open-air cafe.
