Creator's Key Takeaways
I can't believe the WinStar staff didn't kick us out of Basel and Bamboo.
The postcards and the magazines and all the things that you see on the internet about Tahiti, it is not a lie.
We were on jet skis going around Bora Bora. That was the excursion. Jet ski around Bora Bora. How stupid and ridiculous is that? Crazy.
The service is unmatched. So much so that I recognized people that I had seen on different Winstar cruises.

Is a Tahiti cruise really as beautiful as the photos make it look? In this episode of One Slice at a Time, Stephanie and Ryan talk about Ryan’s recent Windstar Cruises Dreams of Tahiti sailing aboard the Star Breeze. Ryan shares what it was like to cruise round trip from Papeete through Moorea, Raiatea, Bora Bora, Huahine, and private motus in French Polynesia. We cover Bora Bora jet skiing, drift snorkeling, Windstar’s small-ship service, Polynesian culture on board, private island events, overwater bungalow stays, flight logistics, hotel tips, and what travelers should know before planning a trip to Tahiti. Ryan also gives his honest pizza review from Papeete, because even in French Polynesia, the pizza must be judged. Planning Tahiti, Windstar Cruises, Antarctica, the Galapagos, or another big trip?
