Ekasup is a working ni-Vanuatu village a short drive east of Port Vila that runs cultural tours for visitors. The guides — villagers in traditional dress — walk you through kava preparation, medicinal plant gardens, basket weaving, and a custom dance.
It is undeniably a tourist set-up, but the families are warm and the explanations are detailed, and you come away with a much clearer sense of how village life actually functions. Tours run twice a day; book through Port Vila operators or directly.
