The guide was very knowledgeable of the history and local historical and interesting facts and related information to French Polynesia in general and the local culturally significant locations in particular. I'm very glad I was able to take this excursion with this guide.

Christian was a great tour guide who gave us a lot of information about the city and the island. It was a Sunday, so most everything was closed, but we were still able to get a good tour!
Great walking tour of Papeete

Great walking tour. Christian was very knowledgeable about the city of Papeete and the history and government of Tahiti more broadly. And I swear he knew half the population of the city. Great tour!
Would do again.

Very nice walking tour where you can truly get the flavor of the locals and local businesses. The island is clearly struggling from the one two punch of historic destruction form the typhoon followed by two years plus of covid oppression. Our guide was friendly, helpful, and provided a lot of island and local history. We got to see the local market, businesses, government facilities, and historical monuments. There are no museums that provide that kind of information. If you can make the walk be careful of high curbs and uneven walk surfaces. Definitely worth the time and money. If you get the opportunity take this tour. You will enjoy the walk and the history.
In depth tour

Good to learn about the history surrounding Papeete and visit some of the places most tourists don’t see. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. He was happy to modify the tour to suit our needs and allow time to shop at a local handcraft market that was not on the usual tourist route. Highly recommend this tour.
