American Samoa Shore Excursions

[Orlando Vic]

We were in Pago Pago, American Samoa last month and, like numerous cruise ship passengers, did not book tours with the ship. We simply got off the ship to look around. There were some vendors set up nearby and one of them was a tour company called Best Tours - American Samoa. There were a lot of people wanting their 3-hour tour ($40 USD) and we were one of the lucky ones to get seats. They took us to parts of the National Park and to some small villages. The memorable thing about the villages was seeing school children walking home. Without exception, every single one of them wanted to engage us in some way, be it conversation or just exchanging smiles and waves. I have never seen such a happy, friendly and welcoming bunch of children anywhere. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and, had we known about this tour company in advance, would have made reservations by email.

We were there in December and canceled the tour we booked on the pier after we saw the bus. It fits one person per bench as shown in the picture, but the lady booked more people which meant two passengers would be squeezed on a bench meant for 2 school children. We took a taxi whose driver showed us around.

Great information. Thank you. None of the 3 ship tours appeal to us so it is nice to know that we can do something else.
