Nice introduction to the island - Great trip. Enjoyed the chocolate factory and the visit to the distillery. Great tour guides and tastings at both locations. Coffee visit was really just a coffee shop, but interesting nonetheless. The handicraft market was not impressive and I'd suggest another location instead.

83 Islands Distellery. - A very professionally run young organisation. The staff are very friendly and helpful. A good selection of rums, gins and liqueurs. A definite place to go to if you are in Port Villa.

Well thought out, good value tour. - This is my second Yumi tour on my trip so far and both have been fantastic. Good drivers/guides. Take you to lots of places you'd have to pay more by taxi to go to otherwise and all entry included. No hidden costs anywhere in the tours. The guides at the coffee factory, chocolate factory and rum distillery were all so knowledgeable and friendly. Most tours aren't available to book as a solo traveller but Yumi has been flexible and has booked me onto tours on dates with other travellers already booked on so I did not have to pay an additional fee or miss out on a tour. Would highly recommend this company run by locals!

An excellent tour that is flexible as well. - Hello everyone. Today in Port Vila we did an excellent tour with a non-Princess tour provider called Yumi tours. Our excellent driver and guide, Joseph, first took us to Tanna coffee that we are told roasts all the coffee for Vanuatu. It was the first decent coffee I’ve had in a week! Then we went to Aelan chocolate and tasted lots of delicious 70% dark chocolate 😋. Next stop was 83 Islands Rum distillery, so-named because there are 83 islands that make up Vanuatu. This place was awesome. Think full flight wine tasting but with rums and gins and liqueurs! We finished the day with a trip to the markets to contribute some money to the locals. The best part of the tour was how flexible the driver was. The tour was only meant to be 4-hours. It was 6-hours by the time the all aboard time made us call it quits or we were going to be taken to an excellent lunch restaurant as well. You hear so much negativity, I thought I’d give this tour a big plug because despite the weather, etc., it was truly excellent! Highly recommended!

Thank You To Moses - What an awsome fun thing to do .. highly recommended for any chocolate coffee lovers too. Yumm altho I was distracted by the paintings and cats ... it was such a fun filled day. Learning about their foods and what islands produce what. The Distillery itself was interesting and new. To strong for me but glad partner could try and enjoy the different tastes.

Fantastic Experience!!! - Had an absolutely FANTASTIC DAY! Moses was our tour guide and he was awesome, very personable and punctual with a good sense of humour that was greatly appreciated :D The coffee and chocolate factory staff were lovely too! The coffees were excellent brews and you can definitely taste the differences in each chocolate sample when you try it. The best part for my parents was the distillery tour though! The front and bar staff were awesome and the information was very clear and succint. For a place that has only been open five years, they have all the makings for a fantastic rum manufacturing location. We recommend trying the Grapefruit variety especially. My parents were very merry on the journey home, great sing along in the van haha. Overall, it was great tour and great day! Would recommend if you enjoy a good day out (and a good drink).
