Day 12 - Port Vila, Vanuatu.

In the travel industry, an honest review is hard to come by. And, this is a personal opinion after a single-day visit.

I would not personally recommend single or inexperienced travelers choose this particular town.

Seventy-eight countries into my experience, I found it more challenging than one might hope for a vacation destination.

Bait-and-switch pricing for transportation, lack of understanding of the difference between AUS, US, CAN dollars led to raising of voices to intimidate not just at me, but other cruisers I chatted with over the following day. Pre-arranged and pre-paid arrangements are recommended for Port Vila…if you must.

Otherwise, Vanuatu was delightful!

Day 11 - Luganville, Vanuatu. Explored the island and its key sites as a main support area for Allied Forces during WWII. Lovely people!
