“We’re thrilled to have added French Polynesia to our portfolio.

Whilst each itinerary is bespoke, the team have curated a sample 15-day island hopping itinerary, with another selection of sample journeys available online.
15 days island hopping in French Polynesia with Wayfairer Travel
Wayfairer’s 15-day island hopping escape visits the most enchanting parts of French Polynesia, uncovering the region’s natural wonders, local communities and calming tranquillity.
Exploring Tahiti’s black volcanic sands and admiring the views of Matavai Bay will occupy the first couple of days, before guests hop across to the island of Mo’orea to spend the next three nights. Fully immersed in the Polynesian way of life, here they’ll be able to enjoy fishing and cooking lessons, and experience an unforgettable two-hour horseback tour at the base of Mount Torui.
A catamaran and domestic flight takes guests on to their next stay – three nights in the breath-taking Tikehau overwater bungalow, set above a turquoise lagoon with abundant snorkelling and kayaking opportunities. Onwards to Bora Bora, the ‘pearl of the Pacific’, guests will embrace the slow life, take in the archaeological masterpieces and local culture, before heading to Taha’a’s “Vanilla Island”, to spend the final three days. Here, guests can enjoy the opulent Pearl Resorts’ amenities and embark on a scuba diving adventure.
