Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban on Luxury Yacht

Actress Nicole Kidman and husband Keith Urban did not cruise on Octopus either ICE but on one of the hugest private yacht in the world the Rising Sun that belongs to founder of ORACLE, Larry Ellison. They spent 4 days in Bora Bora then took the private jet for back home.

The Rising Sun luxury yacht was so huge (5 biggest yacht in the world) that when I saw it in the habor, I didn't notice it was a private yacht but a Cruise ship like you daily see with thousand of tourits abord. So I won't say private yacht but private cruise ship.

So let say that in the same week we have 3 luxury yachts that belongs to 3 of the top fortune in the world at the same place. Do they kno each other? if yes, Wow they must have some great discussions about business (Oracle + Microsoft) Finance (Russian business man) and entertainment (Nicole Kidman and Urban Keith)

Tahiti, Bora bora is the hottest spot for celebs and top fortune meetings.

I understand why, because the most nicest parts in the world have too many paparazzi for people magazine and they hate these, specially when they are in vacation. So Tahiti, Bora Bora are still without paparazzi.

Celebs, Top Fortune, Welcome to my country.

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are also back to Tahiti

It's the second time that actress Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are back to Tahiti. They arrived friday with Air Tahiti Nui Flight 012 from Australia.
According to some rumors, she is pregnant (6 months) and they have schedule to make a private cruise on a luxury yacht.

There is only 2 luxury yachts in the Papeete Habor. Is their cruise on the Octopus or ICE? I can't tell you more.

Paul Allen - Octopus is back to Tahiti

Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen and family arrived in Tahiti with their private Jet Boeing 757. The Octopus is really a huge private yacht, Basket ball playground, helicopter, submarine....

Also another luxury yacht called ICE and is in the list of top 10 most luxury yacht in the world is here too, same as Octopus but way smaller with helicopter and pocket submarine. Owner could be Roman Abramovich a Business & Finance Russian Billionaires.

Are Roman Abramovich and Paul Allen friends? I really think so because when 1 yacht is here the other is joining to it.

Honeymoon or Vacation for Stars in Bora Bora

Are you Britney Spears, Brad Pitt, Bill Gates or another millionaire? Yes then this is your exclusive travel planning for your next vacation to Bora Bora.

For all others, if you're rich enough and want to have a luxury vacation or honeymoon or if you're just curious to know how stars take their vacations then read this report.


Why do they come to Bora Bora ?

Bora Bora is the famous island of all stars and top 500 fortunes.
If Tahiti and her islands are the crowning glory of the South Pacific then Bora Bora is t he sparkling gem in the middle of that crown. The island which was once nicknamed "the Pearl of the Pacific" really deserves its reputation of 'the most beautiful island in the world". Located 260 kilometers from the main island of Tahiti (about 45mins by place), Bora Bora has a population of around 6000. Bora Bora is t ypified but a central peak, an ancient volcano, Mount Otemanu, which is a staggering 727 meters above sea level. Bora, it is only 32 kilometers, and this on a sunny day is still the best way to appreciate the amazing blue hues of the lagoon.
Movie stars, millionaires and celebrities have been regular visitors, for decades; to this gem of basalt rock which is always breathtaking even to the most travel hardened visitors.
Also they want to have their own intimates far away from paparazzi, journalist and the crowd so Bora Bora is t he perfect island among others.
There are white and beaches, five star hotels, restaurants, walking tours; biking tours there are even submarine tours.


Security, need a bodyguard?

You don't really need a bodyguard when coming to bora bora but it can be helpful if he is also the driver/chauffeur and help you with luaguages.
Otherwise there is a several security companies in Tahiti you wish to contact them prior your visit.

What happens is that in the main island Tahiti, it's crowdy and many people could recognize you if you're a celebrity person but in a smaller island like Bora Bora ther e are no risk to be disturbed along your vacation trip, of course you never knows if there aren't paparazzi hiding somewhere for a nice shot of you wearing swim suits.

Sometime it's better to come with a bodyguard that can handle any situations because we already seen a scene where famous soccer player Diego Maradona got into a good ol' club brawl and bonked someone in the head with a glass. The club was in Bora Bora. And the victim was none other than the 1999 Miss Bora Bora. The former Polynesian booty ambassador, Tumata Vaimarae, and Maradona's daughter Gianina had a bit of a tiff and an unidentified man struck Gianina. Maradona threw his glass and, with him being more of a foot guy and all, he managed to clock the former Ms. Bora Bora inst ead of the dude. She required nine stitches and filed a complaint that could have tossed him in jail for three years. To settle the situation, he paid her $5,870


How to come to Bora Bora ?

You can come with your private jet like Nicole Kidman "Gulfstream's" or Microsoft founder Paul Allen "Boeing 727" or rent a jet with pilot at Blue Star Jet (http://www.bluestarjets.com/) but if you're like John Travolta a qualified commercial pilot that comes to Bora Bora with Kelly Preston (Movie The experts) then you can hold the yoke and land your jet to Tahiti.

For others who don't want to fly with a jet but a commercial flight in First Class, there are several airlines that departure from Los Angeles, New York, Paris, Tokyo, Australia, New Zealand... and land in Tahiti.

Air Tahiti Nui, Air New Zealand, Air France, Hawaiian Air,... as you're familiar with these Airline companies, book with them.

The touch down will be at FAAA INTL Airport in Tahiti and like Nicole Kidman and other stars, you can take the Beech Craft private airplane that can be book at Air Archipel and head to Bora Bora smal l airway. You can also take a regular flight with the local airline Air Tahiti but you���ll have to wait for departure schedules and flight with regular tourists.


Business man like Paul Allen and the Baldwin's don’t take the Beechcraft but have their own luxury yacht (Octopus and Triton) and use their helicopter located on top of the roof to reach any island they want.

World top 10 biggest and luxury yachts that came to Tahiti in the past are Paul Allen's "Tatoosh" sold by previous billionaire owner Craig McCaw and "Octopus" a 416-foot witch includes a pool, a 4wheel drive car, 2 helicopters, a basketball court, a movie theatre and a full assortment of water sports toys like a mini submarine.
Peter B. Lewis (car insurance business in Ohio) own "Lone Ranger", Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich came with the huge "Le Grand Bleu" yacht that have a speedboat and a sailboat on top, Oracle Founder Larry Ellison 452 foot, the biggest yacht in the world "Rising Sun" that looks more like a cruise ship than a yacht came several times to Tahiti. Italian Prime minister Berlusconi also have his sail boat in Tahiti for a long period, he said during the election that if he were defeated he would set sail on a yacht to Tahiti -- a splendid way to celebrate his forthcoming 70th birthday.
