Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 24, 2025
Taxis

Taxis are readily available directly outside the arrivals terminal. They are not metered, so it is crucial to agree on the fare with the driver before starting your trip. A typical fare to downtown Port Vila is around 1,500-2,000 VUV. Official taxis can be identified by a 'T' on their license plate.

Rental Cars

Several car rental companies have desks inside the arrivals hall, including international brands like Hertz, Avis, and Europcar, alongside local operators. It is highly recommended to book your vehicle in advance, especially during peak season. A valid driver's license from your home country is usually sufficient, but an International Driving Permit is advised.

Public Transportation

The main form of public transport in Vanuatu is the privately-owned minibus system. These vans, identifiable by a red 'B' on their license plate, operate on flexible routes and are a very affordable option. You can usually hail one from the main road just outside the airport entrance. Tell the driver your destination when you get in.

Note this on the bottom of that page. "Flight information is provided by FlightStats, and is subject to the FlightStats Terms of Use." www.flightstats.com would be the best spot to ask your questions as this website only links to there. Good luck!
