Your island adventure begins with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity visiting Pepeyo Cultural & Educational Village. This village experience begins with a bus trip from all hotels OR cruise ship port. A short drive 12km away from Port Vila Township lies this perfect setting nestled in the heart of the woods of Teouma. Visitors will be greeted by the chief and his warriors with clubs, spears, bows and arrows. Hear tales of cannibalism in the not-so-distant past and learn about the primitive but effective spears and other methods used to trap wildlife like pigs, chicken, and fish. See how locals test if a fish is poisonous: if ants avoid the fish, it's poisonous, but if they eat, the people do too. Next, is at the stunning blue lagoon. Upon arrival, be amazed by the stunningly clear waters and the jaw-dropping beauty of this untouched island paradise. Finally, our final stop is at Eden on the River where breathtaking views and an imposing mini waterfall await you . After your swim, enjoy a very generous BBQ lunch serving up tender and juicy Vanuatu steaks, chicken, sausages, salad and rice. At the end of the tour, enjoy drop-off back to your pickup destination, for cruise ship guests we will drop off back at the port. *Please note that lunch at the Blue Lagoon is only applicable on cruise ship days. For our hotel guest (on non cruise ship days) lunch will be usually served at Eden on the River.
