Of course, the priority task of each tourist is the beach, the sea, the sun. But on Tahiti besides this, there is very good, and most importantly an interesting excursion program. I will tell about the most interesting excursions in more detail. I want to note that group excursions are usually held in English, it is very rare in Russian or if you organize an individual excursion with a guide, but for money it will be more expensive.
