点评:What a wonderful introduction to Polynesia! Vahio was an exceptional guide—knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about his home and culture. Throughout the hike, we learned as much about Polynesian history, culture, and life today as we did about the incredible landscape, flora, and fauna around us.
What stood out most was Vahio’s genuine pride in his Polynesian heritage. The Polynesian people have so much to be proud of, and Vahio is a wonderful ambassador for that pride. His stories and perspective added so much depth to the experience and gave us a much richer appreciation of the place we were visiting.
We actually did this hike only two hours after stepping off an overnight international flight—and it turned out to be the perfect way to start our trip! Fresh air, movement, beautiful scenery, and fascinating conversation were exactly what we needed to stave off the jet lag.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for an experience that combines hiking, nature, culture, and a genuine connection to Polynesia. Thank you, Vahio, for such a memorable welcome!

最令人印象深刻的便是瓦希奥对自己波利尼西亚血统的由衷自豪。波利尼西亚人民有太多值得骄傲的地方,而瓦希奥正是这种自豪感的最佳代言人。他的讲述与见解极大地加深了我们的体验感受,也让我们对所到之地有了更为深刻的认识。
实际上,我们在搭乘国际长途航班抵达后的两个小时就立刻进行了这次徒步——结果证明这是开启旅程的绝佳方式!新鲜的空气、轻松的活动、绝美的景色,再加上饶有趣味的交谈,正是我们克服时差所需的一切。
对于任何希望获得集徒步与亲近大自然于一体的体验的人来说,这绝对值得一试!文化,以及与波利尼西亚的深厚联结。感谢瓦希奥,给了我们如此难忘的欢迎仪式!
