Enjoy a half-day tour from Port Vila visiting two of Efate Island's most iconic tourism spots. This tour takes in the Blue Lagoon, where due to a quirk of nature the saltwater mixed with freshwater springs is unnaturally blue. Then on to freshwater based activities to be had at Eden On The River – a must see destination for all ages where their tropical eco tours blend education with a touch of adventure (light snacks available here at own cost). A complimentary 600ml bottle of water is provided with the tour!
This tour is also available for passengers off a cruise: Starts 45 minutes after the cruise ship actually berths and lasts around 3-4 hours. Guests will also be given an opportunity to shop at the best priced duty-free shop on the island, and then returned in good time before scheduled departure.
Morning tour starts at 8:30am (includes duty free shopping)
Afternoon tour starts at 1:30pm (includes duty free shopping)

What To Expect
Blue Lagoon
A wonderful quirk of nature! The water is slightly salty and so blue perhaps from the limestone fresh water springs and the tidal sea water. Try the rope swings into the water. Refreshments included, local organic fruits in season & juices
Eden on the River
Efaté's favourite freshwater destination and activity provider. Visit Eden on the River to experience nature and culture based activities for the whole family.

Fun and beautiful nature

4.00Not so much of a tour but a taxi to destinations. However blue lagoon is lovely as was Eden cascades. I would recommend water shoes for the cascades and the sliding down on an inner tube requires a bit of skill , but is fun. The stairs down are short but steep and there is handrail steps to the water at the bottom of the cascade
A must for Port Vila

5.00We did the Eden River and Blue Lagoon tour with Willy and Martina. Willy did a great job of navigating around all the potholes in the road on the way. Martina is lovely, she made sure we were all ok and having a good time. She is a wonderful tour guide and full of information, answering all our questions. The Blue Lagoon is a refreshing spot on a hot day and Eden river was another good spot- we could not pick our favourite. Definitely a tour worth doing. This is our second booking through Viator where we received no contact details for the tours so did not know who to look out for. The communication is lacking and disappointing for such a big company
amazing locations

5.00We did the 1:00 pm Blue Lagoon & Eden River tour and it fit our cruise schedule perfectly. Pickup was right at the cruise terminal, with a quick hotel stop before heading out. The air-conditioned van was comfortable for our group of 11, and our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to understand. Eden River required a short walk down some slippery steps with handholds—worth noting if you’re not steady on your feet. The river was cool and refreshing, and our guide safely got us out early due to rising water from upstream rain. The Blue Lagoon was stunning. By the time we arrived, most visitors were gone, so it was peaceful and beautiful. Refreshing swim and great photo spot. We were back to the ship by 5:10 pm and caught the last tender with no stress. Highly recommend.
Great time.

5.00This was a nice relaxing experience. Swimming in the Blu Lagoon and floating in the river. Our guide was friendly and informative. Would definitely recommend. Drive to Blue Lagoon is long and bumpy.
Great Tour

4.00Great tour but felt rushed at Eden. Could easily make this a full day tour. Easy to find the tour guides when you walk to the left after getting off the tender.
Avoid this tour

1.00What was meant to be a half day trip last 2 hours. Our driver was late arriving, took us to the Blue Lagoon and back. No stop at Eden River, no duty free shopping. I would have said something but I just wanted to get back in one piece. His driving was erratic, dangerous and all whilst he was drinking alcohol while driving me and my children around. Give this one a miss!
Excellent tour and so much fun!

5.00We visited Port Vila as one of our cruise stops. The tour organisers clearly communicated the meeting point and there was no issue finding the tour bus. Both swimming holes were wonderful. The tour ended back where we started, right near duty free shops and our cruise tenders. I would say that whilst we knew the tour wasn't starting until 9.30am due to our cruise ship using tenders rather than the port, not all tour members seemed to know that and thought we were running late. We found this tour really great value for money. We enjoyed the local knowledge from our guide Justin and our driver John got us around safely on some pretty sketchy roads!
