Best in Mo'orea since 1925
About Us
A family-run business
Albert Transport
Originally from Zürich, Switzerland, Albert's father arrived in Mo'orea in 1925. He felt he had discovered paradise on earth, so he decided to move there as a farmer and fisherman, living exactly the way Polynesians do. Albert was born in 1939. He started work at a very young age, performing a variety of jobs on Tahiti and Mo'orea until 1961. At that time, he had saved enough money to purchase a second-hand "4L," which he used as a taxi. His hard work helped him acquire a better car later on, followed by an old bus. This was the beginning of Albert Transport, which received an International Award for Best Excursions in 1999.
Our Story Continued
Albert then built a small hotel called "Motel Albert," still open today. All of Albert's extended family—12 children and 19 grandchildren—now play a major role in the local economy. As they grew up, Albert's children worked in various tourism activities: Taxi, scooter rentals, car rentals, excursions on land and on the sea, as well as in pearl farming.
