The excitement, the anticipation, the slight anxiety

over the trip can finally end. Today your tour to one

of the most exclusive, most remote and most

beautiful places in the world, Tahiti, begins.

When you arrive in Papeete, one of our maverick

tour guides will collect you from the airport and

escort you to the hotel where you can shower, put

the jet-lag to bed, and ready yourself for the

adventure (please note, check-in is from 2pm and

today is a free day)

DAY 1 (FRI) ARRIVAL IN PAPEETE

Our day begins with a bit of formality. We'll sit you

down and explain the entire tour - what we do,

what we expect, how you can have a kick-ass time

with Bamboo. We'll also ease any anxieties you may

have about being here - we get it, it's an isolated

island.

Once through the orientation, we'll head into the

city to the "Cultural Centre" in Papara. There, we'll

spend time learning about Polynesian life, from the

local cooking and crafts to the dances and tattoos.

It's basically your insightful introduction to the

country and, better yet, the organization directly

supports educational opportunities for young

Polynesians - you're giving back already.

Once through and fully "cultured", we'll make a pit-

stop at the Cave of Maraa; so spectacular we've

even lost a breath or two.

From there, we'll head back to the hotel and get

ready for the night's meet-and-greet dinner at the

famous Royal Tahitian - flower crowns aren't

required but definitely encouraged. There, you can

get to know the other travellers better, dine on

Tahitian favourites and, if the cards are right,

maybe take a late-night dip in the sea.

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

DAY 2 (SAT) PAPEETE

How bad can a morning be if it begins with riding

the waves to your second paradise in two days?

After a much-needed breakfast (coffee cures all,

right?), we'll pack our bags and board the boat to

the island of Moorea. For those who don't know,

"Moorea" is the only correct answer to the question,

"Where is paradise?", as you'll soon find out.

Upon arrival, we'll amble to our beach bungalows in

Haapiti and briefly entertain the idea of ditching

the tour altogether and instead opt for a life on the

island forever. Once realizing that idea's flawed (it

may take a few hours...or days), the adventure

continues.

Largely known as surf capital, Haapiti's lagoons also

cater to some of the most wild and exotic lives in

French Polynesia. It's a place where, if you're brave

enough, you can swim with sharks and stingrays.

Those looking for lighter, less-adrenaline-inducing

entertainment can instead watch for dolphins and

whales (peak season is August - October).

Just another casual day in Moorea.

Meals included: Breakfast & Lunch.

DAY 3 (SUN) PAPEETE - HAAPITI

Still enchanted with Haapiti's charm, today will

involve a bit more work and less play. We've

carefully selected a local NGO responsible for

maintaining the conservation, education and

research of the region's infamous lagoon. The

organization will introduce you to reef and pollution

issues in addition to the problems currently facing

the region's sea turtle population. It'll be the basis

for our volunteering excursion in Haapiti, so listen

up. Depending on the needs of the NGO at the

time, we may be invited to join on a beach cleaning

initiative or coral cutting for the construction of

their underwater structures.

Following the interactive introduction, you'll have

the afternoon and evening to yourself, which can

easily be filled with swimming, exploring, endlessly

reapplying sunscreen, getting mesmerized by the

sparkling seas or, like any member of the BamFam,

psyching yourself up for tomorrow's work.

Meals included: Breakfast

DAY 4 (MONDAY) HAAPITI

This morning, the difference-making begins.

The NGO will have us cutting and preserving coral

reefs, cleaning the island's beach fronts and

teaching local people the importance of

sustainability and environmentalism.

After some chill out time in the afternoon, at

sundown, we've arranged for a proper 'Happy Hour'

and barbecue to satiate the appetites worked up

throughout the day. Be prepared for a sunset that

we can only describe using cheesy cliches, so we'll

just say "it's darn beautiful".

Meals included: Breakfast & Dinner

DAY 5 (TUE) HAAPITI

Today we are all heading back to the island of Tahiti

and taking a trip to one of French Polynesia's most

sacred destinations: Fare Hape.

Crossing from Moorea to Tahiti by boat, we'll then

hop on an epic 4x4 jeep journey into the center of

the island to spend the next two days at a secluded,

ancient village hidden in the mountains and jungle.

For thousands of years, Fare Hape was virtually

untouched by the western world, and the sacred

Polynesian rituals and beliefs lie at the heart of

Tahitian values. The day's highlights center around

understanding this 1,000s-year-old culture,

including astronavigation, and simply building old-

world houses from natural materials.

We'll also introduce you to the local Haruru

organization who invests and protects the island's

sacred grounds. While here, they'll have you

constructing Polynesian homes, planting medicinal

herbs, clearing the jungle, river damming, and

essentially helping to build the infrastructure for an

entire irrigation system - high-level tasks for a

volunteer...but you're BamFam so this shouldn't be

daunting, just bare in mind it can vary. It really

depends on what the association needs to be done

for the preservation of the place and culture. Every

time is different but we will have the biggest impact

possible.

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner.

DAY 6 (WED) HAAPITI - FARE HAPE

Yesterday we learned about the jungle and today

we'll explore it. Wandering through like Tarzan and

Jane, we'll follow the sounds of the jungle, tracing

animals and veering towards the faint crashes in

the distance. The crashes, of course, can only mean

one thing: Waterfalls. Who's up for a swim?

After a dip (and lunch), it's back to Fare Hape to

continue our projects.

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner.

DAY 7 (THU) FARE HAPE

Bidding farewell to the local people of Fare Hape we

head off to the remote area of Teahupoo on the

south-east coast of the island.

On an island already coated in stunning coastlines,

Teahupoo's serenity and peacefulness is the only

way to wrap-up an otherwise adventurous tour.

Upon arrival, we'll take you on another special boat

tour. The gorgeous caves of Vaipori await, as well as

island enclaves so remote they rarely see any

human exploration, making you, effectively, a

modern day Magellan.

Lunch will be cooked fresh from the boat deck,

which features a view of epic proportions.

The day concludes with even more lounging and

even more stunning sunsets and even more

delicious meals and even more drinks...because

that's just life in this paradise.

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner.

DAY 8 (FRI) FARE HAPE - TEAHUPOO

We're taking off the Bamboo ball-and-chain and

letting you into the wild world of Teahupoo this

morning. Packed with one-of-a-kind nature, feel

free to explore the surrounding waterfalls, go

hiking, kayaking, or even just spend the morning

sun-tanning along the waterfront. Just get back by

early afternoon so we can shuttle you to Papeete,

where we'll gather for our final group meal and

toast to Tahiti...on our private boat of course!

Meals included: Breakfast, Dinner

DAY 9 (SAT) TEAHUPOO - PAPEETE

Do...do we even want to address the

goodbye? We've reached the end of the tour

but only the beginning of our friendships.

Don't be sad it's over because the Tahiti

adventure will forever live inside each of us.

We'll snap a final group photo, which we'll

then keep under our pillow case, only to look

at late at night and remember the fun we

had.

Beyond that, we'll help you arrange any

transport you may need to the airport and

see you off to your next destination, be it

home, another leg of your vacation, or back

to the bungalow where you contemplated

moving just days ago!

Just remember that, with Bamboo and

Discover Tahiti, you're leaving a legacy for

the causes we've supported, and we hope

Polynesian culture will hold an extraordinary

place in each of your hearts and souls

forever.
