Starting from
₹3,47,999 / person
Overview
See Tonga from the water and from the ground. This 9-night trip pairs a cruise leg with land nights across Nuku’alofa · Vava’u · Ha’apai, so you wake up in a new port without repacking, and still get proper time ashore at Swimming with humpback whales (Jul – Oct) and The Vava’u island group by yacht. Cabin, excursions and port transfers are all arranged.
May – Oct is the sweet spot for Tonga (South Pacific), and we plan departures from Surat around it — flights via Mumbai or Ahmedabad, 4★ hotel + cruise cabin hotels locked in writing, and this itinerary from ₹3,47,999 per person on twin sharing.
Explera's Surat desk runs the whole journey end to end — flights, stays, transfers, guided sightseeing, Tonga visa assistance and insurance — with a written day-by-day plan before you pay and a human on call 24/7 while you travel. Every departure is fully customisable to your dates, budget and travellers.
