Must Do!!! - I highly recommend adding this tour to your Bora Bora itinerary! Pick up was prompt and seamless right from the hotel dock! Mat was our guide for the day. He provided us with a wealth of knowledge about the island and marine life. He was attentive and made us feel comfortable in the water. We saw manta rays, sting rays, eagle rays, sharks and even lucked out with a pod of at least 50 dolphins. The highlight of the excursion is the coral garden; a wondrous place full of healthy coral and fish! Lunch on the private motu was perfect! If your are looking for a customized tour with a fantastic guide, please don’t hesitate to use H2O! I would do this tour 100 times if I could.

Mind blown! - Wow... this was the highlight of my trip! The boat arrived in the morning to pick us up (2 couples). It was clean and had a cover for some shade. 1st stop was an epic snorkeling spot. 2nd stop was to view the Manta Rays (we saw 6!). Next was lunch. A beautiful beach setting, delicious BBQ, clean restrooms, and a walk to the other side of the Motu. After lunch, 3rd stop was more epic snorkeling. We had an option for a 4th stop but decided against it and he drove us around while narrating island history. Bora Bora was unbelievably beautiful and spending the day with Vincent made it even more special.

Dream Excursion! - This couple's tour was nothing short of fantastic! From the knowledgable, friendly, and patient owner, Aimee, to our very capable, funny, and personable guide, Hiro, they all took great care of us. We booked online before we left home and easily met Hiro at the dock in town. This was our first time---we are now dreaming about more! As far as the boat goes, it was in great shape and very comfortable. The motu lunch was filling and fun as we sat at our own shaded picnic table in the water with views! Next we were able to make pareos to bring home as gifts (bring money) and watch an entertaining demonstration of coconuts being "husked" and then tasting the water, meat, and finally the milk. Of course, the main event was the all-day snorkeling which cannot be surpassed, as Hiro expertly took us to the best spots to view not only multitudes of colorful fish, but also eagle rays (30-40!), manta rays, a sting ray, a sea turtle, whales, dolphin and gorgeous coral! This small family run business is well worth your consideration. Book it now before it sells out!

Highlight of our vacation - deserves six stars! - This private full-day snorkeling tour was the highlight of our Bora Bora vacation! Our guide (Hiro) was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating - we were fortunate to catch eagle rays, manta rays, and a stunning collection of fish and coral at some of the most popular and gorgeous snorkeling sites around Bora Bora. This was our second day of snorkeling in Bora Bora - the first was with a different group tour and while that was a great, having a private tour with Hiro was a next-level experience. There is so much to see in the waters that one day tour just isn't enough - with the second full day private tour, we were able to customize it to spend more time in our favorite place from the first tour (coral gardens) as well as explore some new spots which weren't part of the first tour (including the aquarium) Lunch was a delicious and authentic home-cooked meal with a ton of variety - we definitely went back for seconds and thirds of some of the dishes. We also got to enjoy a coconut show where we learned how to husk and crack coconuts and drink fresh coconut water as well as squeeze a few drops of our own fresh coconut milk. If you are coming all the way to Bora Bora, *definitely* set aside multiple days to explore the lagoon and I strongly recommend booking this tour.

Adventures above and below - We had a wonderful time snorkeling! I have been on many, many snorkeling trips and this has to be one of the best. We did a half day shared trip with H20 and had so much fun we also signed up for a full day private tour. Both were great! Our private tour was on what would be your typical 20’ waterski boat in the states. There was comfortable, upholstered seating for us and the boat was in great shape. Our captain and guide, Rudolf (sp?) really cared that we were having a good time and was in the water with us, helping find rays and matching our activities and snorkeling spots to what we were comfortable doing. We ended up going outside the lagoon into the Pacific itself for part of the day, for some more exposed snorkeling in very clear water, which was great. We never felt rushed and Rudolf also really got into his job, which made the day great. He was funny, professional, knowledgeable… everything you would want in a guide. Lunch was on the beach and there was BBQ chicken, mangos, bananas, poisson cru, coconut bread, coconut cake. Our table was right in the water and it was great. After lunch we walked to the other side to see the Pacific (tip: bring flip flops with you to lunch, the coral path is tough to walk on). Do remember that you are going on a trip to see nature and there may be murky water or may be no rays to be found, mother nature can be fickle. We had a short glimpse of a manta ray and saw lots of eagle rays, beautiful coral, and fishes

Don’t even think twice; book this now. - Well, there are no words. I’ll begin my saying that I have been quite lucky to have explored the globe, and have tried out many tours along the way. Without a doubt, this was the best tour; the best day, of my life. From start to finish, Aimee and David were impeccable. While there is usually some level of discomfort or awkwardness with any host or hostess, not once did myself nor any of my friends, feel as though we weren’t truly comfortable; family. Of course, the tour itself was also incredible! I’ve been to Bora Bora quite a few times… but David’s knowledge and comfort in the water, not only made me swim in places I hadn’t before— but I did so feeling totally safe and excited to swim. If you are lucky enough to have the chance to book this, DO IT. (Oh, and lunch was the best food I’ve had in Bora Bora, which also helps.)

Amazing!! Thank you! Merci beaucoup! - My husband and I booked full day private snorkeling tour. We had a great time even though rain was on and off throughout the day. Thank you Diego for giving us such amazing snorkeling experience. My husband is a good swimmer but I am not. Diego was always there for me when I needed extra help. He was there in the water guided me throughout each snorkeling sites. I felt safe in the lagoon when he was round, so that my husband can freely film the whole snorkeling experience. Prior to this, we had half day group snorkeling tour to prep this. I didn’t realize there is no toilet on the boat, sorry I just can’t pee in the ocean. Hint, don’t drink too much coffee in the morning before tour. With private boat tour, we stopped by island shore, and there we had lunch and I was able to use restroom there. Lunch was actually really flavorful or either that I was hungry. If I ever go Bora Bora again I would just book full private tour. The only negative part of trip was unpredictable tropical rain. We really tried to check weather daily to pick a dry day but weather keep changing. Thank you Diego, next time to Bora bora will contact you again!!

Spend a day with David. - My wife and I love to scuba dive in Bora Bora but for the last two years we’ve booked two full days with David snorkeling. You get to see beautiful shallow coral reefs you would miss diving. A perfect break between dive days. On My favorite is the south fringing reef. David is energetic, graceful host who really knows the island both above and below the surface. Thank you David!

Amazing day on the water! - Gwen and I spent the entire day with David our guide stopping at several snorkel locations withing the reef... amazing coral, eagle rays, moray eel, large reef shark and more. We ventured outside the reef where the deep water was amazingly clear and the reef itself was beautiful from that side. David did an excellent job finding interesting animal life that we would definitely have missed if we were on our own. He tried several times to find the elusive manta rays during the day but was unsuccessful.. but he wouldn't give up. On our way back he wanted to make one last try at locating them and he did. For 20 minutes we watched as two mantas circled our boat, diving and coming back close to surface and boat. Thanks David for an amazing day!

Best snorkeling tour of the island - This was one of the best days we had. They took us to the best spots and saw so much. This is a must do when you come to Bora Bora. We got to see Manta Ray's, eagle Rays, sharks, and tons of fish. Clean new boat and amazing Captain!!
