We were very impressed with our guide Elora’s knowledge of local history, geography and life in Vanuatu in general. She was very personable and was happy to divert to answer any questions our small group of six asked her.

This tour is a great option to do on your first day in Port Vila. You will get to see local markets, beaches, independence park in as little as 2 hours. We even enjoyed local morning tea on this trip.

Pick up at the hotel. Driver and additional guide. 6 stops in and out of Port Vila. Interesting explanations about the history and culture of Vanuatu. Stop at viewpoints with an overview of the surrounding area. Last stop at the market with accompaniment and explanations.

A great little informative trip around Port Vila. Our driver, Roy (rainbow) was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions about the town, the island and life in Vanuatu in general. Lovely photo stops, we enjoyed ourselves very much. Highly recommend doing this with Eco Tours.
