Thanks! This was so useful. I loved how unpretentious you guys are…not trying to show off or use fancy editing or trying too hard to be funny or hip. This is the best video I’ve seen so far on Tahiti; and I’ve watched many (most are vanity clips that offer zero useful information). Looking forward to more of your videos.
Oh thank you so much ! That makes us feel really good, as we try our best to just educate people on what to expect when traveling to certain countries. We want to eliminate any worries people might have when booking their trips. We are very glad you are enjoying the content !
Exchanging cash doesn’t usually "avoid fees", it’s the most expensive rip off ever - the spread on the exchange rate is usually ~2+% vs like 0.5% via ATM withdrawals using your bank card. The bank might charge a fee dollars for the service but it’s at a vastly superior rate in many cases. Bank dependent obviously, but just something to be aware of.
Just found your channel. Love it. Cash really is king if you’re going to live like a local. Resort living you can get away with living on a card, but to be independent and do your own thing, you’re totally right to get cash. New subs.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful experience, loved every minute of it. Did you guys used any specific website or travel agent to book your trip? Thanks
Thank you so much for the kind words ! We are very glad you enjoyed it. No we use a travel agent or any special website to book our sites. Tarah just loves researching and booking trips. We actually are in the plan of starting a series involving showing all of our tips and tricks to planning your vacation. Hopefully this was helpful !
Is the food cheaper at Vaitape or main island? It looks like most resorts have a complimentary boat/shuttle to the main island. I am wondering if it we can save money if we eat lunch at main island instead of the resort.
It is, it’s just the inconvenience of having to leave to eat can get a little annoying or time consuming. But it is cheaper on the main island
Do you know if you could exchange UK pound sterling at the airport or was it US dollars only ? Thanks
Yes you can exchange all different currencies
Do you know if the Hilton Moorea have a place to cook?
We are not sure, you’d have to ask them directly. We didn’t stay at the Hilton Moorea
la orana....planning a trip to the french polynesia for my husband's bday. Can I book different islands once in Tahiti or should I do it beforehand?
You can do it there, but there is limited availability on the planes so I would recommend doing it beforehand. Depending on the islands, there are certain days they fly. You can look online and find the days they fly. If you have trouble, email them and they can help you plan it out!
@@Fittwotravel thank you very much for the input...I'll do it beforehand
Did you need to get a Visa before entered to French Polynesia for couple days? Thank you.
No we did not need a visa
What kind of food is allowed to travel in with from US? Our flight gets in really late & I have food issues. But it doesn’t sound like there is much we can bring in?
From our understanding, you can bring things that are packaged, so like protein bars, jerky, canned tuna… You can’t bring like fresh meat or home cooked meals. I think as long as it’s in its original container and sealed, it shouldn’t be a problem.
thank you!!! @@Fittwotravel
What phrases in French did you wish you’d known?
What’s the best month to visit Tahiti?
Between may and October is generally the best time
This was useful but I'm surprised you didn't talk about mosquitoes since you were both scratching throughout the whole video!!
Haha yeah we don’t really talk about mosquitos because wherever we go we get bit. Both of us just have blood they love, and we haven’t found anything that helps. But mosquitos 🦟 are prevalent for sure
@Fittwotravel I live in Akaska so I understand!! When I lived in Missouri I took garlic pills to avoid getting bit by ticks. It worked!!
I enjoyed your video very much & look forward to visiting French Polynesia next fall for the 1st time. Thank you for sharing!! Happy trails! 👣 🌞
That’s awesome ! You will have a blast! Hopefully you get great weather. Did you check out our other videos on the French poly ?
Yes we used to scarf down garlic pills, they seemed to work sometimes but not all the time. Hopefully one day the mozzies will get tired of us
@Fittwotravel I have. I've wanted to go there for YEARS but thought it too expensive but it's not!! Yay! Thank you.
Were the mosquitoes bad?
We aren’t the best people to base that on, as we are mosquito 🦟 magnets. We get bit wherever we go. I would say they were bad, but not as bad as other places we have gone.
How much cash did you end up needing?
Was roughly $1500 usd that was used cash wise. We used card whenever we could.
“Francs?” Even France doesn’t use Francs. Lol 😄 At least not in over a hundred years (1999 to be exact ;-) It’s all Euro in Europe…but go on. Do they like their own currency?
Idk 🤷🏾 what to tell you that’s what they use there. I imagine they like using the currency fine, everyone uses it.
@@Fittwotravel I just laughed when I saw that (I still have French francs from my first trip to France 🇫🇷 🙂I wonder if I can use them…but maybe theirs are Tahitian francs and those are different 🤷🏻♀️
