Take in rich tropical landscapes on a panoramic drive to the charming Botanic Gardens of Lifou. Follow your guide on a walk through the garden to see the lush and colorful vegetation, including everyone’s favorite -- the vanilla plant.
Don’t miss the towering Cliffs of Jokin, whose walls were once the island’s barrier reef. The breathtaking 120-foot-tall cliffs consist of layers of ancient, fossilized corals and marine life -- a fascinating glimpse of pre-history.
You will have the option to walk down a 200-step pathway for a closer seaside view.
Notes:
Shade is limited; to avoid sunburn, wear light, long clothing suitable for use as a cover-up. Bring a hat and sunglasses; wear biodegradable/reef-safe sunscreen. Bring bottled water. Modest attire is required; knees, shoulders and midriffs must be covered; short shorts and swimwear are not allowed. It is important to ask permission before taking an individual’s photograph. The transportation is not air-conditioned or equipped with a PA system. Local escorts and students will act as guides. Limited tourism infrastructure is part of the charm here; you are trading breadth of guide experience for authentic interaction. Please bring your spirit of adventure and bear with any language difficulties or operational surprises that may crop up. Restroom facilities are rustic. Large groups will be split into several smaller groups, with the guide traveling on the largest vehicle and offering narration for everyone at the various points of interest. The drivers of the smaller vehicles often do not speak English but will do their best to point out the highlights for you.
