Tahiti is an island paradise that everyone should visit. The problem is that visiting the French Polynesian island is often associated with costing a lot of money :(
While these overwater bungalows are amazing, save by opting for an Airbnb or local guest pension.
Rent a Car
Taxis on Tahiti are very expensive and public transportation isn't all that reliable. The better option is to rent a car and pick it up from the airport.
Shop locally
Rather than eating out, hit up the local markets. Carrefour and the Papeete Market are great alternatives.
