Step into the slippers of a local as we snack our way around Moorea with your local guide. Tama'a means to eat in Tahitian and we will be doing just that as you and our taste buds will discover the best local spots.
During your food tour you will taste and visit authentic local finds that will offer unique flavors where locals like to eat. You will be taken off the beaten bath and discover local "snack shops" and road side fruit stands. The food in Tahiti consists of three cultures; Tahitian, Chinese, and French. On the Tama'a street food tour we will seek out hidden food gems from all three backgrounds.
Guest will experience 10-12 tastings, depending on season and availability. The tour will take between 4-5 hours.
We will also stop at some breathtaking sites, and get a little cultural history of the island. The tour stops in the main town of Maharepa.
Come join us for a unique Moorea experience with Tahiti Food Tours, and learn about the Moorea culinary scene.

A must-do on Moorea!! Heimata is the best!!

5.00The food tour with Heimata was one of the most unique. informative and fun tours we have taken in any country. Heimata, self-proclaimed "half professional/half flintstone" was born and raised in Moorea and provides you with local history with a culinary twist. He is a trained chef with a sharp wit and a plethora of information. He is extremely personable and very well-loved on the island as is apparent by the welcome he receives everywhere he goes, including just driving down the road. I have to admit that a few of our family members were hesitant for this "food tour" but it is much, much more than that. He will introduce you to the local flavors, the various cultural influences and even the best "snacks" on Moorea. He was so kind that he allowed us to continue to contact him during our trip for restaurant and local activity recommendations. We whole heartly recommend Heimata and his food tour when in Moorea!!
Fun and interesting food tour
