The largest island throughout the country, Tahiti is called the Queen of the Pacific. With its exotic waterfall and canyon adventures, exquisite tropical gardens, and romantic alfresco dining, Tahiti is also often referred to as the "Isle of Love."
All international flights arrive in Papeete, the capital city, and the gateway for all travelers entering the islands. Papeete is a bustling cosmopolitan center with a mixture of Tahitian and French influences. There are world-class resorts, spas, fine dining, and unique restaurants, nightclubs, vibrant markets, pearl shops and boutiques.

SHOPPING: In the heart of Papeete, is the 155-year-old pubic market called Le Marché. Here you can purchase souvenirs and shop from hundreds of charming stalls filled with Tahitian-made handicrafts, oils, hats, bags, necklaces, wall hangings, shell jewelry, vanilla beans, fruits, flowers, and more.
DINING: At the end of the day, enjoy dinner at popular resort or local restaurant.
