You step off Port Vila’s tarmac into warm, green air—sea-breezes one way, forest humidity the other. The track slopes away from the coastal road and the village roofs thin into palms; a local guide moves ahead, calling out plant names in English, French and Bislama. Footsteps meet packed earth, a river dares you to cross on a mossy log, and the jungle seems to watch as you ply paths used for generations.

No technical experience required; participants should have a moderate fitness level and be comfortable walking on uneven, sometimes muddy trails.
