Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

U- Power will provide you with your own tour guide and life jacket. Snorkelling equipment is available.
The tour takes you around the harbour area and some beautiful coastal views with an opportunity to snorkel or just go for a swim. There are no change rooms or toilet facilities so make sure you are dressed for the occasion. The company will take photos and post it on Facebook for you to access. The boat can accommodate two people however if you want more speed one person per boat is recommended as the boats does not have the most powerful engines. If you are lucky, like we were you will see sea turtles. Fun experience and no boating experience required. Highly recommended for the whole family.

We didn't expect that this was going to be so fun. We tried to get on the jetboat but it was booked so we took our 6 year olds on this. We had such an amazing time on the Zegos on the beautiful chrystal clear waters of the harbour ... our guide made it so much fun for us. A real surprise for us and the kids absolutely loved it.

Mark and his team are outstanding. The quality of service, safety induction, equipment and time taken to make us feel comfortable was exemplary. Very friendly team, took the time to lock our belongings away and even walk me to collect something. The adventure itself was awesome! So much fun, the entire time that was promised and they took great photos for us, sent them the very next day at no charge. Highly recommend. The 30mins was great, but I would go back and do 60mins in a heart beat.

I really want to say that it was amazing, but my boat was really slow and when I told Andrew during the tour he said you need to keep pushing the accelerator to full throttle. But I have been driving boats all my life and I knew there was something wrong with it. I did what he suggested and it made no difference. My partner doubled his mum on a boat and they were much faster than me. The guide was way ahead as his was really fast, I was far behind all of them. And my partner said my motor was blowing a lot of smoke.
I was looking forward to a swim but we stopped behind Iririki Island in the water not off the beach, this is not what it said online, and I couldn’t as I wouldn’t be able to pull myself back on the boat. Andrew was nice but we were a bit disappointed overall with the experience. And the price of over $300 aud seems very steep for 2 boats and less than an hour.

We had so much fun on the Zego. I would recommend the hour trip as this gives you some time to do some snorkelling halfway through. Bring your own if you can or you can borrow snorkel gear from UPower. Very easy to operate and we felt safe at all times.

This hour tour was lots of fun, but my boat had stiff steering & a stiff gear box.
It was a fun & picturesque tour. With a lovely stop for snorkelling in a deep blue drop off.
The guides were fun & patient with slow boats & with stiff steering & gears.
The 5 of us in my group really enjoyed this time.

Well, this was the best ever. We found this to be exciting, exhilarating and well worth the spend!
Unlike so many other excursion, this one seemed to be time endless. My wife that does not swim and does not like to venture more then a few feet away from shore (unless on a cruise ship), absolutely loved this experience!
This is one major big "tick" for us and, will definitely do this again!

So much fun and an adrenaline rush as well! What a great way to see Port Villa harbour and the islands from a different perspective. Great fun and would absolutely do again! We just did the 30min UPower tour & thoroughly enjoyed it!

We went on this as it said 'One Hour High Speed Adventure' - what we got was 42 mins of driving a little boat at 12 knots around the harbour.
We were very disappointed as it cost 14000 vatu for my wife and I.
If you want a high speed adventure, check out Joe's Jetski hire! For only 3000 vatu more you get a full hour at 46 knots roaring around in a brand new Jetski, not a tired old smokey toy boat!

Has anyone booked there’s online? We have been given a bank account to pay into to lock in the booking, just wanna make sure it’s safe.
Also, how hard is it to get there from the cruise dock?
Written 14 July 2018
We booked through our cruise line however other people just turned up on the day and got a much better deal than what we did. Its super easy to get there too as it's right in the city centre. We were actually already in the city part then we caught a taxi back to the boat thinking it was elsewhere (5 min drive from the city to the boat) and when we got on the mini bus we ended up right back where we caught the taxi from! So really easy to get there and really friendly people to deal with!

How can I book and find out price?
Written 1 June 2018
I think it's in person at Port Vila. That's how we did it anyway. You can't miss it, half way along the beach front. Sorry can't remember the price but it was reasonable.

Has anyone been on this ride with their 5 year old? the age restriction is 5 on the Upower website but P&O have their own restriction of 8 years and they won't let us book through the cruise. Anyone been on a cruise and booked directly with the company? any issues? timings I should consider?
thanks

We visited in October and took a 7 and 9 year old on the zegos. They are very safe and life jackets are provided.They can sit in front of the adults as our children did and also steered them. Our boys had a ball and it was one of their favourite things they did.
