  • What are 10 things you need to know before your trip to Tahiti? If you are planning a trip to French Polynesia or eagerly awaiting your departure this presentation is for you.
    Have you ever gotten to your destination and learned something you wish you had known before you got there? Today, on this Tahitian Moment Live, I will cover some of the most common questions I get prior to departure and some insider tips I have learned from my 17 trips to French Polynesia and all my clients who have travelled and provided me feedback as well.
    I will cover topics such as what currency you should bring to French Polynesia. What about pre-booking excursions and what do I bring on them? Do I need reservations for the spa or for dinners? How do I get between Islands and to and from resorts? Do you tip in Tahiti? Are there unique souvenirs I should be looking for while I am there?
    Polynesian hospitality is like none other so if you do find yourself in the islands with questions there will be lots of help, but this video will set you up for a great vacation with the most important things to know in advance.
    Remember to book your trip with a Tahiti Expert to give you a flawless vacation experience!

    Carl, in the short span of time I have tuned in to your TH-cam shows, I have learned so much about the Tahitian Islands - its culture, nature, lifestyle, and the plethora of things to do. You provide so many interesting aspects of the Islands, as well as the Do's & Don'ts in planning a trip. You have taken so much time with my wife and I in planning our vacation, and offered up valuable suggestions along the way. Patience is truly a virtue, and you certainly have that.
    For anyone new to this TH-cam page that is planning a vacation to Tahiti, do not go it alone. Reach out to Carl and have him arrange the trip for you.

    A tip on taking photos my wife likes to use live mode on the iPhone. Good for those actions shots like sharks and rays, If you think you just missed that photo you can go in and look at the 3 seconds and perhaps you did get the shot.

      I definitely suggest prebooking transfers. Taxis are most often available but there are times there may not be any. We always do pre-arranged transfers for our clients.

    I’m headed to French Polynesia for 5 weeks, first visit. This was helpful, thank you!
    So, to confirm, don’t tip in restaurants, whether formal or casual?

    • @TahitiByCarl
      @TahitiByCarl  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Tipping is a very personal thing - but in French Polynesia it is Europena style so no you don't need to tip 15 - 20%. You might just round up your bill if the service has been good.

    I'm reading you no longer need to provide vaccination information or take tests to enter French Polynesia. Is this correct for March 2023?
    Also, where do you buy the adapters? I have not used one before

    • @TahitiByCarl
      @TahitiByCarl  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes French Polynesia no longer requires vaccination or tests. If you are coming through the US and not American you do need to be fully vaccinated though.

I have no international service with my phone carrier and I'm also hoping to buy prepaid sim or a cheap phone to get Gps, cell service, and internet out there. Any info there?

    I just came back from Tahiti and Moorea. Tahiti is just overrated and extremely expensive for what it can offer. Moorea is beautiful but still extremely expensive. People are very nice.

    • @TahitiByCarl
      @TahitiByCarl  ปีที่แล้ว

      Sorry to hear you felt it was over rated. That is definitely not the consensus of my clients who often fall in love with it and return for another visit. I am not sure what you did, where you visited, tours and resorts etc. If you want to visit again give me a call to help you with the planning and booking - that could make the difference. Without a doubt it is a more expensive destination though. Glad you were able to see it.
