Bora Bora Experience (Rohivai Tours) · Boat pickup from your hotel
A six-hour boat safari with Bora Bora Experience (Rohivai Tours): three snorkel stops for stingrays, blacktip reef sharks and coral, then a Polynesian picnic on a motu. Pick it if part of your group would rather not drive a jet ski.
There is no jet ski on this tour. That is the point. A safari boat picks you up, from your own hotel if it has safe sea access, and spends the day on the lagoon. The first stop is a marine sanctuary where you swim with stingrays and blacktip reef sharks. A second stop may have manta rays (the listing says they are not guaranteed). Then comes a coral garden, and lunch is a Polynesian-style picnic on a small motu under the coconut palms.
The boat pickup is a real plus if you stay at a motu resort. The listing lists 18 pickup points, from the big resorts to Matira Beach. The boat can come to your jetty if there is enough depth, a sandy bottom and no coral, and the jetty is big enough. If not, the crew meets you at a nearby point. Ask when you book.
Drinks are included: water, fruit juices and soft drinks, plus a towel and snorkel gear (give your fin size). The listing does not allow feeding the animals. It needs good weather and a minimum number of guests: if either fails, you get another date or a full refund. You cannot get a refund once the tour has started. The listing says the tour is not suitable for pregnant women or wheelchair users.
Pickup by boat from your accommodation or a nearby point, then about 20 minutes across the lagoon.
Snorkelling at a marine sanctuary with stingrays and blacktip reef sharks.
A second sanctuary where manta rays may show up. The listing does not promise them.
Snorkelling over coral with tropical fish.
A Polynesian-style picnic on a small islet with coconut palms, then free time and a walk.
About 20 minutes back across the lagoon to your drop-off point.
One of the best tours we have done.

Maybe. The listing says the second stop may have mantas and that they are not guaranteed. Stingrays and blacktip reef sharks are at the first stop.
Often, yes. The boat comes to your accommodation if there is safe sea access and a jetty big enough for it. If not, you meet at a nearby point.
