4 Days from USD $1,100* per person, double occupancy
Rates, itinerary, conditions and availability subject to change.
Tour Code MQ-106

To travel in the Marquesas is to discover again what time is, time for oneself and time for and with others.  It is also about time for silence and time for interaction, time to find oneself, time to enjoy.  The value of time is the first and foremost gift that the Marquesas offers to travelers.

It is sitting on the terrace of your bungalow, watching the night approach.  It is getting up and dawn, listening to the birds, the sea, and the life of the islands waking up slowly.  Life in the Marquesas is walking hand in hand in the woods.  It is a day cycling, horseback riding or walking, with long silent moments, broken by the guide suddenly telling you about his genealogy, sharing the legends learned from his ancestors, from his tribe, from his land or from a stone.

It is discovering again the most simple joys and gestures.  It is strolling along the road, crossing the village, and going to the Chinese grocery shop to buy some bread, stopping in the main square to watch local sculptors.

All these unforgettable experiences make up the beautiful and mysterious life of the Marquesas, an ideal eco-tourism destination.
