Excursions Moorea?

[lallarebecca]

We´ll have one day in Moorea during our upcoming cruise and since it is my first time there and I have no clues about the island I would like all your advice!

 

Any excursions that you can recommend? Places/things that should not be missed etc.? All advice is highly appreciated!

 

I´m in my early 30´s and will be travelling with my mother in her early 60´s, we are both healthy and reasonably fit, but we do not like something to extreme when it comes to excursions. However we love the sea, and especially snorkelling.

 

Thanks!

Best things to do on Moorea Edited November 16, 2013 by Tikiintahiti

That's a shame about not being able to venture around Moorea in a 4WD vehicle. We went on the AITO shore excursions, which is a 4WD vehicle, open air seating in the back, and they take you up these "very" steep roads on Moorea, in fact the roads had to be surfaced with cement, so the vehicle gets a grip, but WOW what a view you get at the top of Belvedere Lookout, our cruise ship looked so minature from the lookout. It is so popular that the local police had to ensure there were no accidents with vehicles coming & going at the lookout. After that drive the AITO drivers tooks us to various farms, and also to a ancient Polynesian site, which has the old stones surrounding which was once a place of worship, etc.

After a great day touring in the AITo vehicles, were finished up in the Pineapple Farm shop, and I bought a bottle of Coconut Creme (17% proof) which dear wife & I occasionally have a small sip (very nice)
