We really enjoyed the stay in Nuku alofa. I have
called Tonga two times in the past and your
new jetty is a big effort. The pier sice is perfect
for our ship size. The pilot service and mooring
was perfect. Our passengers enjoyed the
zime in your nice City very much. The Security
Guards were friendly and helpful. All in all a very
professional operation. Our passengers really
enjoyed the music band and the welcome and
farewell songs.
Many Thanks for your support, we will see is in
the future!
All the best
