Christelle Holler was born in France and grew up in Lyon. She moved to Tahiti 20 years ago.
Tahiti Private Expeditions, she has brought her focus on the company’s marketing and strategic developments and PR for the past 11 years.
After graduating from business school, Christelle joined the pharmaceutical industry in the USA and Europe as Operational Manager, also in charge of European public relations and events before discovering the high-end hospitality industry working for the Aman group.
Her background naturally led her to join the yachting industry a few years after her move to Tahiti. She started as a stewardess aboard a couple of luxury charter yachts travelling to the various islands of French Polynesia.
She and her husband founded Tahiti Private Expeditions 12 years ago to meet a growing demand for excellence in diving and local knowledge onboard superyachts. She acts as Managing Director focusing on marketing / communication and strategic development.
Additionally, Christelle consulted for 8 years with the local board of tourism. She initiated the first steps of promoting the destination to the industry worldwide – through events overseas, seminars, familiarization trips, working with the press while raising local authorities’ awareness of the superyacht development potential in the South Pacific.
Within this frame, she managed to bring Tahiti as the Gala Destination Sponsor in 2014. She is also a member of the Marketing and Educational Committees.
Of course, she is also an experienced keen diver!
