5 hours from Auckland to Papeete, 6 hours and 26 minutes from Wellington to Papeete and 6 hours and 50 minutes from Christchurch to Papeete.
The ideal time to visit Tahiti is from May to October, when the weather is sunny and perfect for outdoor activities. November and April also offer delightful conditions with warm temperatures and fewer crowds. Even during the rainy season, Tahiti's lush landscapes and warm climate create a uniquely enchanting atmosphere.
New Zealand is ahead of Tahiti by 22 hours (April – September) or 23 hours (late September – early April). Because Tahiti does not observe daylight saving, the difference changes when New Zealand clocks move forward or backward.

Anne MarieWith a couple of years of
experience in the travel industry, I am passionate about all things travel —
culture, adventure, food and leisure. Most importantly, I love turning your
travel dreams into reality.
Travel has been a part of my life since I was three years old, those early
experiences sparked a love for travel that has only grown over time. In 2021, I
achieved a Level 4 Certificate in Tourism, Airline and Flight Attending which
opened the door that brought me into the world of travel.
I’m excited to discover new destinations and help others do the same
My love for travel started with adventures shared with family and friends which taught me the importance and significance of creating meaningful memories.

I have travelled to over 40 countries and I am always plotting what's next - however, the more places I experience, the longer the longer the list gets! I love the anticipation of a new adventure and learning as much as I can from every new journey. I am a self-described travel enthusiast, so being able to talk travel every day and share my passion for travel is a dream come true. I love helping people realize their travel dreams and being able to live vicariously through experiences.
Getting to know my clients and learning what's important to them is something I really enjoy, and helps when creating an itinerary that's is as unique and as special as the traveler.
There is nothing more satisfying to me than a client popping in after their journey with tales to tell of the adventures they've had. I love hearing peoples stories and experiences as every experience is so different - there is no universal truth or one size fits all option when it comes to travel!
For me travel is inspiring and transformative - it allows you to learn more about the world around you, and in the process, more about yourself.

I have had a lifelong love affair for exploring the world. Raised in a family that prioritised travel, I inherited a passion for all things travel. I have lived in different countries (London, USA, Argentina) and I am fascinated with the rich tapestry of culture, people, religion and food in new places.
My love for travel has taken me to some of the world’s most amazing places!
From Mauritius to Bahamas and all in between, I have been privileged to experience the world and being able to speak and understand 5 languages English, Afrikaans, Dutch, German and Greek) certainly comes in helpful.
I have grown up in South Africa, spending most of my adult life there, being able to show my clients what makes this region so unique is a privilege. Africa was my backyard after all and even after living in NZ for almost 12 years, my heart still beats to the African Drum.
For me, choosing a favourite destination is impossible. But .. Bali has literally captivated my heart, and even though I have been there 20+ times, I still always find new things to uncover. As does the Maldives, Mauritius and Seychelles, these islands just have the “it” factor
I also love ocean cruising, especially Mediterranean and the Caribbean. Cruising offers such a great variety and a chance to see multiple destinations and experiencing iconic landmarks and locations from your hotel on the sea.
I WOULD SAY MY PASSION IS MAKING MY CLIENTS DREAM HOLIDAYS COME TRUE AND I PRIDE MYSELF ON MY EFFICIENT SERVICE AT ALL TIMES.
