Get the girls together and be a Galavanting Goddess. « less

What can I say, we loved it! I enquired about this experience before we arrived but did not get around to booking it, so thought we would have to miss out. A quick enquiry once we got there and JoJo kindly accommodated us. Because we gave such short notice she was not able to arrange the full fashion parade, which... More

We found this to be a 6 star experience and loved our afternoon being goddesses. The location is amazing and so is the range of fashion. I could be called a fashion fan as I am professionally involved in the fashion industry and I know the JoJo Vanuatu label from Europe where it is highly sought after and very rare.... More

This 3 hour experience was delightful! Jo is very knowledgable about fashion, trends and colours. The location is absolutly stunning and the massages will melt all your cares away. There is a wide selection of clothes and accessories to choose from and the fashion parade gives you a great exposure to a few key pieces.My two suggestions are an air... More

This had been organised for us by a very capable member of our large group of travellers, and I admit to not looking into it very thoroughly before I arrived, so really didn't know exactly what to expect. However, the reality exceeded any expectations I would have had. The day started when we were picked up by the very debonair... More

What a unique and unexpected experience in port Vila! I was unsure what to expect and very pleasently surprised by the Jo Jo Vanuatu experience. I felt like I was very fortunate to be part of my own private fashion parade whilst sipping Moët. I also came home with two gorgeous dresses straight from Paris!!! Congratulations Jo Jo and thank...

We were at JoJo Vanuatu Beach Club for the Galavanting Goddess Experience last Wednesday!!! My partner and I had an awesome time!!! It's an experience that anyone visiting Port Vila should have, both men and women. My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed the fashion show, the massage and the wonderful hospitality of Jo and Rob and their wonderful butler, Albert!... More

From the moment you step out onto the balcony of Jo Jo's and look out over the water, you know that the afternoon is going to be a magnificent experience. For all ten of us Galavanting Goddesses, it was a wonderful time enjoyed by all. Champagne, fashion, massage, spa and dancing, all shared with Jo Jo and her beautiful staff,... More

Met at our resort by a man in a luxurious white tuxedo and top hat, but not forgetting where we are...no shoes and a sarong! Served champagne while taking in the breath taking view of the coral reef in a stunning private tropical setting. We were treated to JOJO VANUATU's unique fashion show AND then a man with the most...

There is only one place in my opinion that is a must see and do in Vanuatu and that is Jo Jo's Galavanting Goddess Experience. From the time you are picked up at your resort by Bert and then taken to Jo Jo's breath taking home the experience is unforgettable. Champagne, high tea, fashion parade beyond compare, shoulder and foot... More
