A Beautiful Katak Trip - We enjoyed this kayak ride along a placid river surrounded by jungle. James gave us a lot of good information about many things and his wife wove a basket for us. The kayak was especially nice because the seats had backs unlike many others we saw.

Beautiful - I recommend this kayaking activity with James Polynesian passionate mauruuru we keep beautiful memories and beautiful explanations along the river kayaking.. To be redone and I highly recommend it

Mauruuru - It was a great time with our amazing guide, who explained the flora and fauna around the river. We were able to move at our own pace, accompanied by beautiful anecdotes. Mauruuru for this wonderful moment!

Raiatea River kayaking with Patrick - An enchanted break on the Ra’iātea River – authenticity, calm and generosity During our stay in Polynesia, we had the pleasure to live a private kayaking trip with Ra’iātea Kayak, an experience that will remain etched in our memories. Accompanied by Patrick, a guide of rare generosity, we explored the only navigable river in all of Polynesia, a place imbued with calm and serenity, far from the noisy engines and the hustle and bustle of classic tourist circuits. The silence was disturbed only by the birdsong and the gentle lapping of our paddle — a real soothing nature bath. Patrick was passionate and exciting, sharing his knowledge of the surrounding flora and fauna with accuracy and enthusiasm. His ability to transmit his love for this land makes the experience deeply human. Halfway through, we had the pleasure of enjoying a fresh coconut, opened by hand with a smile and simplicity. And as if that wasn’t enough, Patrick gave us a beautiful hat braided with his hands, a touching gesture, reflecting genuine generosity and a sincere Welcoming. This kayak ride on the sacred river of Ra’iātea is much more than an activity: it is a real encounter, a suspended moment where you feel connected to nature and people. A huge mauruuru to Ra’iātea Kayak and Patrick for this magical break. To recommend without hesitation to all those who seek to discover Polynesia otherwise, away from the crowds, in respect and beauty of the living.

Wonderful - A person with a heart as big as the world , close to nature and who loves more than anything to transmit the jewels of his island . We loved both the visit and the person and his little chip which is just as adorable To do without hesitation!!! miss out would be a shame

Amazing experience - Amazing experience!!!!! You don't need kayak experience to do this. It is a very gentle river with a knowledgeable guide. You won't regret it!

To do without hesitation - Very nice morning with Patrick Quiet 2h30 kayak ride on the river. Very enriching experience , wonderful landscape . We were in small committee with 4 kayaks. No need for physical condition, achievable by all

A beautiful day - Amazing excursion Beautiful landscapes and a guide who took the time to show us all the bridges of interest while taking care of us. Thanks again to Patrick our guide for his kindness, benevolence, fruit tastings and braiding demonstrations

We had the most wonderful adventure - This was the most fantastic day. Our guide, James, and his wife, we’re so informative, friendly, and really went out of their way to explain everything about this island, the plants, trees, fruit, topography. They spent so much time with us, taking us around the botanical gardens, stopping to give us coconuts, and making us so happy and welcome. we kayak frequently, and this was the best double kayak we’ve ever been in. We saw other tour groups in kayaks without backrests and they must’ve been suffering for three hours. We had the most comfortable back rests. We highly recommend the tour. we’re so glad we didn’t take the excursion from the ship and booked this ourselves on TripAdvisor.

1 hour late but nice walk with private and exciting guide - Having booked 2 days before, no one showed up on the D-day:( I had to call, and finally they came 1 hour late. But I got a ride with a private guide who taught me a lot about the fauna, flora and life of the inhabitants of Raiatea. So I was not disappointed with the experience, even if it only lasted 2 hours instead of the 3 announced.
