Volcanoes, Blue Holes and Three-Hour Flights
Vanuatu sits just a few hours from Australia's east coast, but it feels like a different world. Active volcanoes, blue holes hidden in the jungle, underwater wrecks you can snorkel through, and a Melanesian culture that is among the most vibrant in the Pacific. Port Vila is the gateway, with waterfront dining, local markets and day trips to surrounding islands. Beyond the capital, places like Espiritu Santo, Tanna and the outer islands offer the kind of raw, unspoiled beauty that is getting harder to find.
Vanuatu Holiday Packages
Our Vanuatu holiday packages take the guesswork out of getting there and getting around. We can bundle flights, accommodation and transfers into a single booking, and can add tours, meals and island-hopping options depending on how you want to spend your time. Whether you are after a resort week in Port Vila, a dive trip to Santo's SS President Coolidge, or a volcano trek on Tanna, we build the package to fit.
All-Inclusive Vanuatu Holidays
If you would rather have everything covered before you land, an all-inclusive Vanuatu holiday takes the daily decisions off the table. Packages that include meals, drinks, activities and resort amenities, allows you to relax without worrying about additional costs. These work particularly well for couples wanting a low-key escape or families who want predictable costs. Our team can match you with the right all-inclusive Vanuatu resort and holiday based on your budget and what matters most to you.
Vanuatu Family Holiday Packages
Vanuatu is a natural fit for families. The resorts around Port Vila cater well to children, with pools, beach access and guided activities. Outside the resort, kids tend to love the market visits, the snorkelling and the chance to see something genuinely different from home. Our Vanuatu family holiday packages can focus on resorts with proper family facilities, interconnecting rooms and a good balance of relaxation and adventure. The short flight time from Australia's east coast is a bonus when you are travelling with younger children.
