Car Rental
If you're renting a car, start from any location in Aore Island and head to the ferry terminal. Take the ferry to Espiritu Santo, which typically operates every 30 minutes. Once you arrive on Espiritu Santo, follow the signs to East Coast Road. Santo Horse Adventures is located at Lope Lope Adventure Lodge on East Coast Road. The drive from the ferry terminal to the lodge is approximately 25 minutes, and you can enjoy the scenic views along the way. Note that you may need to pay a ferry fare, which can vary based on vehicle size.
Public Transportation
For those using public transportation, take a taxi or a bus from your accommodation on Aore Island to the ferry terminal. Once you arrive on Espiritu Santo, you can hire a local taxi to take you directly to Lope Lope Adventure Lodge on East Coast Road. The taxi ride will take around 25 minutes and should cost between 1,500 and 2,500 Vanuatu Vatu, depending on negotiations. Ensure that you confirm the fare before starting your journey.
Bicycle Rental
For the more adventurous, consider renting a bicycle to explore the island. Cycle to the ferry terminal from your accommodation on Aore Island, take the ferry to Espiritu Santo, and then continue cycling along East Coast Road to reach Santo Horse Adventures. It's about a 25-minute ride from the ferry terminal to the lodge. This method allows you to enjoy the local scenery and culture more intimately, but ensure you are prepared for the physical activity involved.
