Transforma tu Viaje: Cultura Islandesa y Blue Lagoon Mágica

Our driver was prompt with picking us up and taking us for the start of our amazing day. The cultural village was amazing and we learned a lot about tribal life. This tribe was not from Efate island, but from Futuna Island - but that didn’t matter, what he had to teach was still important. The fire walking was intense, how they don’t hurt themselves I still can’t figure it out. Afterwards we went to the Blue Lagoon for a swim - such a beautiful place. The water so clear at times I thought I could touch the bottom. Lastly was Eden on the river. This is where we had an amazing BBQ lunch wish some great salads. We decided not to swim here, we went for a walk down the river instead. Such a beautiful spot on the river.

Great cultural experience tour and a good way to see the island. Of course the performances are for tourists but hey, that’s what these things are. Swimming in the lagoon was the highlight.

Beautiful island tour. Such a great wayvto get an overview of the spectacular nature of the island. Tour guide was friendly amd welcoming. Food was great and the scenery was beautiful! Definitely recommended!

Generally the he excursion was good, especially the Vanuatu village and blue lagoon. However, the excursion got off to a rocky start. They took us to a market/store (for duty free) for a 20 minute stop (there were no souvenirs). They said we could leave our bag in the mini-bus. When we came out, our bus was not there and was told it was being use to pick up other people. And would be back shortly. It came back 40 minutes later a full hour. First, our bus should not have been used for another purpose, especially with our stuff in it. We could not do anything during those 40 minutes as we were told the bus would be right back.

When we first arrived the tour operator tried to over crowd a mini van. On both groups refusing the travel arrangements we were taken to another van that this time had an extra seat and we were squashed in as tight as we could with no aircon and had to rely on windows and movement to get air into the cramped cabin. Was a horrible experience travel wise. The lunch is a VERY light lunch we were all still hungry after the lunch that was put on at blue lagoon. No water was offered throughout the trip. I would not recommend booking a tour through this operation based on our experience. The other group that we were travelling with felt the same as we did. We did another tour the following day with Vila Hope and it was like chalk and cheese. Completely different experience and only wish we went through them on the first day.

This was advertised as a guided tour but there is no guide, only an uncommunicative bus driver. The places we were taken to were well worth seeing but we were not told anything about the locations and not told of the arrangements for lunch. Yumi Tours had numerous tours to various activities and the driver dropped us off and left us to pick up other customers. At our last stop we were left waiting for about 30 minutes after all other tourists had left and we were very concerned we’d miss the cruise ship departure.

Recently booked Yumi Tours for a shore tour during our Pacific Island cruise. We had Julian as our driver and he was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and such a friendly man. He was so patient with our group as we asked a million questions. My favourite stop was the Blue Lagoon where Yumi provides a BBQ lunch. The food was delicious and there was plenty to go around. I did not take my partner or children with me during the cruise but I loved Vanuatu so much I will be heading back in the near future to show them the wonderful island and will definitely be booking with Yumi again. Fantastic service. Well done.

Absolutely fantastic day! Vincent our tour guide was just wonderful sharing information about Vanuatu as we drove through, he was informative and also threw in a few jokes which was great! Cultural tour was amazing, learning about the ways of the people in the village and how they are trying to preserve their culture. The lagoon was great we had a great time but it just felt so man made, not very natural feeling- but we did have a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed our time. Thank you Yumi Tours you were great!

We arrived via cruise ship and before we where off the boat our tour guide called to confirm location and meeting point. First stop was Eden an amazing place where I could have spent all day. From just relaxing in the river to jumping in fro. Rocks and trees with the local guides. Next was Blue Lagoon enjoyed also was a bit colder due to the wind but had more fun jumping off the rope swing and various other activities. Lunch was served as a buffet BBQ. Get selection of food and very tasty. Cultural Village was great to get an insight into some of the traditional customs. The enjoyment in the little kids was great to see. Duty free shopping was last and wee the credit card got hit with such cheap liquor.

We went with Yumi tours from the cruise ship port and the experience was excellent. Our guide, Ricky, was a great host and gave us heaps of insights into the culture and history of the island throughout the tour. The cultural village was a big hit with the kids. 5 stars
