Why the name?

2 Waves Express

The name 2 Waves Express represents both the ocean waves that bring travelers to Vanuatu and the warm waves of welcome you’ll receive from our local team. We started as a small operator guiding day tours, and like the rhythm of the sea, we’ve grown into a trusted inbound agency connecting people, culture, and islands.

Our Journey

From our beginnings in Port Vila, welcoming cruise ship guests and short-term visitors, we’ve evolved into a full-service travel partner for adventurers, families, and groups. Our passion is to show you Vanuatu beyond the postcards — with authentic encounters, smooth logistics, and tailor-made itineraries that celebrate island life.

our Team

At 2 Waves Express, our team is more than travel specialists — we’re storytellers, guides, and local hosts who know Vanuatu inside out. From planning and logistics to warm welcomes and cultural connections, we’re dedicated to making every journey seamless and unforgettable.
