Marquesas Islands Vacation Packages

Find the best travel deals for the Marquesas Islands

Travel agencies specializing in trips to French Polynesia, working in partnership with Air Tahiti Nui, offer several vacation packages to The Islands of Tahiti (Moorea, Bora Bora, the Tuamotu Islands, and many others). Among our packages, enjoy a trip to the Marquesas Islands to discover these remote, wild, and authentic lands.

In the Marquesas vacation packages we’ve carefully selected, your international round-trip flights with Air Tahiti Nui are included, departing from Paris, Los Angeles, Sydney, Tokyo or Auckland Airport.

Each package also includes hotel stays on the islands selected by your travel agency (Ua Pou, Ua Huka, Nuku Hiva, Hiva Oa or Fatu Hiva for example), or a cruise package that allows you to reach the Marquesas archipelago by sailing across the Pacific Ocean.

So, choose your preferred transportation method to get from Papeete, Tahiti to the Marquesas:

• A flight on a local inter-island airline departing from Tahiti Faa’a Airport (PPT) will allow you to set off on an adventure to explore your destination on your own and spend your nights at a hotel or a local guesthouse.
   

•  An all-inclusive boat cruise (breakfast, lunch, dinner, excursions, nights in a cabin on the boat, etc.) departing from the port of Papeete will offer you a wonderful Polynesian adventure.

The Marquesas Islands: The Land of an Entire People

When the light falls on the Land of Men, the steep cliffs and lush mountains offer a majestic view of an authentic and untamed French Polynesia. Nuku Hiva, Ua Pou, Ua Huka, Hiva Oa, Tahuata, Fatu Hiva… numerous islands make up the Marquesas Archipelago, at the northern tip of The Islands of Tahiti.

Here, there are no lagoons or international hotels & resorts like those found in Moorea or Bora Bora. The Marquesas Islands embody the raw charm of a powerful and spectacular natural landscape, where wild horses roam freely. Between exceptional landscapes and unique archaeological sites, every trip to the Marquesas Archipelago is filled with new discoveries.

During your trip, you’ll even be able to see the largest waterfall in French Polynesia, Vaipo on the island of Nuku Hiva, and the largest tiki, Takaii, on the island of Hiva Oa.

Among all The Islands of Tahiti, Marquesan culture is particularly rich in legends, symbols, and arts of all kinds. Marquesan sculpture, jewelry, tapa, dance, and tattooing are all expressions of this magnificent culture, recognized throughout French Polynesia and around the world. It holds many secrets that are still being revealed today through archaeological discoveries and the study of ancient symbols.

The history and spirit of these amazing islands alone are worth a journey to the Land of the Marquesan people, discovering their magnificent ancestral culture.

If you choose a cruise package, please note that excursions with a local guide are planned for passengers. You can spend the day on one of the islands, explore a Polynesian valley imbued with Mana (Polynesian spiritual power) on a hike, enjoy a Marquesan dish in a village for lunch, or stroll along a black-sand beach during the day, then return to the ship at nightfall.

Tours and activities: visit unique islands in French Polynesia

The Marquesas Islands are the farthest from Tahiti and the other Islands, located about 1,500 km from Tahiti - a little less than a 3-hour flight between Tahiti and the Marquesas (Tahiti to Nuku Hiva or Hiva Oa, for example). The archipelago can also be reached by a cruise ship. So, choose a cruise package across the South Pacific to the Marquesas or a travel package that includes nights in a hotel or guesthouse on the Marquesas Islands to fully enjoy this unique archipelago.

Take the time to tour the islands to enjoy all the different sporting or cultural activities and landscapes. Across the Marquesas Archipelago’s reliefs, hikes, horseback rides, or 4x4 tours with a guide will allow you to explore the marvelous landscapes that captivated the painter Paul Gauguin and the Belgian singer Jacques Brel. During your trip to the Marquesas Islands, you can follow in the footsteps of these two artists and visit the cemetery on the island of Hiva Oa, where their graves face the ocean.

Nestled within lush green bays, magnificent beaches await. While most Marquesan beaches are adorned with stunning black volcanic sand facing the ocean, you’ll also find beautiful golden sand in some coves, such as Anaho Bay on Nuku Hiva. Experience the islands in peace and quiet for an unforgettable stay.

Finally, you can choose a Marquesas travel package focused on scuba diving tours. Thanks to its unspoiled ecosystem, you’ll encounter numerous species, each more fascinating than the last, in an environment very different from that of other Polynesian islands.
