Imagine waking up in your own overwater bungalow, diving straight from your deck into warm turquoise waters, and gazing at lush mountains rising from coral-fringed lagoons. Welcome to The Islands of Tahiti - where French chic meets island luxury in a tropical paradise you’ll never want to leave.
Often simply called "Tahiti," this island wonderland actually spans five breathtaking archipelagos, known officially as French Polynesia. From the lively island vibe of Tahiti itself to the stunning beauty of Moorea and Bora Bora, each island offers unforgettable experiences: swim in crystal-clear lagoons filled with colourful marine life, lounge on untouched white-sand beaches, or explore lush, verdant landscapes.
Whether you’re seeking laid-back luxury, a romantic escape, or thrilling adventures on land and sea, French Polynesia is your perfect match. With world-class resorts, mouth-watering cuisine, and dreamy experiences at every turn, your ideal island getaway is waiting right here.
Chat to our Tahiti travel specialists and let’s find your perfect island paradise.
5 hours from Auckland to Papeete, 6 hours and 26 minutes from Wellington to Papeete and 6 hours and 50 minutes from Christchurch to Papeete.
The ideal time to visit Tahiti is from May to October, when the weather is sunny and perfect for outdoor activities. November and April also offer delightful conditions with warm temperatures and fewer crowds. Even during the rainy season, Tahiti's lush landscapes and warm climate create a uniquely enchanting atmosphere.
New Zealand is ahead of Tahiti by 22 hours (April – September) or 23 hours (late September – early April). Because Tahiti does not observe daylight saving, the difference changes when New Zealand clocks move forward or backward.

John AlbertNice to meet you! I love traveling with my husband, whether it's hiking the Camino de Santiago, biking through Latvia, or relaxing on beach holidays in places like Greece and Fiji. Recent highlights include cruising Norway and exploring Puglia, Italy—though I’m always guilty of overpacking!

For as long as I can remember, travel has always been a huge part of my life. I grew up travelling multiple times a year, so it's no surprise I chose a career in the travel industry to carry this on in my adult life!
My love of travelling and experiencing different cultures is what drives me to create bespoke travel itineraries for all of my clients. I truly believe that travel sparks our imagination, feeds our curiosity, and reminds us how much we all have in common.
I have explored various parts of the world along with our own backyard and will continue to do this to not only fulfil my desire to travel more but also to advance my knowledge of locations that may be of interest to my clients.
Excelling your needs, wants and expectations before, during and after travel is my main priority. I would love to create a truly amazing trip and memories that will last you a lifetime!
