PERIODO MIGLIORE PER IL CLIMA – LA NOSTRA ESTATE

http://www.tongaturismo.info

 Quasi i 2/3 degli abitanti vivono nell’isola più grande, Tongatapu.  Nuku’alofa, è il centro nel quale lo stile di vita locale si avvicina a quello europeo.

I legami familiari e le tradizioni del villaggio sono ancora molto importanti nella cultura tongana.

Per la costituzione tongana il giorno sacro è il sabato, ma si festeggia anche la domenica; per motivi religiosi.

I tongani derivano dal gruppo di stirpe polinesiana con qualche traccia di sangue della Melanesia e rappresentano il 98% della popolazione.

Il 2% è rappresentato da: meticci europeo-tongani e gente proveniente dalle altre isole del Pacifico. Poche  centinaia i cinesi.

Il turismo è  abbastanza importante per l’economia di Tonga.

-Tonga è soprannominata la “Perla del Pacifico del Sud

-Il Regno di Tonga è visitato da 100.000 turisti ogni anno. 

Lingue
Il tongano è la lingua ufficiale del Regno, anche se l’inglese è  parlato dalla maggior parte degli abitanti di Tonga .

Valuta
Il dollaro tongano è il Pa’anga .

La maggior parte delle principali carte di credito sono accettate .

I centri principali hanno sportelli per il cambio di denaro e altri servizi bancari.

Clima 

Da dicembre ad aprile è estate e le temperature sono più calde e più umide.

Nei mesi invernali, da maggio a novembre, il clima è  fresco e asciutto ; LA NOSTRA ESTATE CORRISPONDE AL MOMENTO MIGLIORE PER UNA VISITA (ma va ricordato che nel nostro inverno è bassa stagione e i prezzi sono più bassi).

Tonga gode di un clima che è estremamente confortevole e piacevole; sempre intorno ai 23 °

Orari d’apertura degli uffici
Lunedi a Venerdì 8:30-04:30 . Il Sabato dalle 8.30 alle ore 12 .

-La domenica la maggior parte delle caffetterie e bar è chiusa.

-La domenica il cibo è disponibile solo in hotel e resort .

Acqua potabile
Nei centri e località principali l’acqua del rubinetto è trattata e sicura.

Nelle zone più periferiche, è consigliabile bere acqua solo in bottiglia .

 Elettricità

Elettricità a Tonga è 240 volt AC ciclo Hz/50 . Portare gli adattatori internazionali per le prese locali.

Aeroporto Internazionale
Situato sull’isola principale di Tongatapu , Fua’amotu International Airport riceve voli internazionali da Fiji , Nuova Zelanda, Australia , Samoa e Stati Uniti.

ATTENZIONE: a Tonga si è molto conservatori, soprattutto nel vestiario:

-la legge tongana (non si tratta di limitazioni dovuti alla religione islamica, qui la popolazione è prevalentemente cattolica)vieta di apparire in pubblico senza una camicia e non son accettati: 

 abiti corti,  pantaloncini o gonne, bikini ecc in pubblico o quando si nuota in spiagge pubbliche; non nelle spiagge private degli alberghi.

Mance a Tonga
La mancia non è prevista, ma è sempre apprezzata per un servizio molto gradito.

 Lo sapevate che 

A differenza di Fiji , Samoa e Tahiti , il Regno di Tonga è non mai stato influenzata dalla colonizzazione . 

Tonga è ancora fedele alle sue antiche culture e tradizioni . 

In gran parte sconosciuta dalle orde turistiche ,

-Tonga rimane l’ultima destinazione incontaminata nel Sud del Pacifico.

I collegamenti aerei sono il meglio per spostarsi da un’isola all’altra.

Due compagnie aeree si occupano di voli interni:

-Airlines Tonga Air Fiji (Airlines Tonga; 23690; www.airlinestonga.com; Teta Tours, Railway Rd angolo Wellington Rd, Nuku’alofa) e Peau Vava’u (www.peauvavau.to).

ATTENZIONE: I voli spesso sono annullati o riprogrammati all’improvviso, ci si deve adattare.

Numerosi traghetti garantiscono i collegamenti interni tra i principali arcipelaghi, ma hanno un numero cabine limitato e il viaggio normalmente costa di più rispetto alle tariffe aeree.

-I traghetti partono dal Queen Salote Wharf a Nuku’alofa, gli orari non sono fissi; controllate prima della partenza.

-Le compagnie sono varie, noi segnaliamo:

-Shipping Corporation of Polynesia(Nuku’alofa; 23853; scp@tonfon.to; Queen Salote Wharf; Vava’u; 70128; Ha’apai; 60699) che collega Tongatapu (Nuku’alofa), Ha’apai (Ha’afeva e Lifuka Islands) e Vava’u (Neiafu), quelli della Uata Shipping Line (Walter Line; 23855; uataline@kalianet.to; Queen Salote Wharf) che collega Tongatapu a Vava’u ed ‘Eua, e quelli della Tofa Shipping (21326), che collega Nuku’alofa a ‘Eua.

Sulle isole più grandi, è presente una fitta rete di linee di trasporti pubblici (come minibus) e di taxi, questi ultimi si riconoscono per la lettera ‘T’ sulla targa di immatricolazione.

-In ogni isola  è possibile affittare un cavallo (che deve essere domato, dal momento che sono consegnati senza briglie e sella e quindi occorre essere davvero abilissimi cavallerizzi)

l’automobile è la scelta più sicura.

Le agenzie di autonoleggio sono numerose nelle capitali e negli aeroporti.

Le bici sono facilmente nolleggiabili sulle isole.

A Tonga si arriva in prevalenza passando per l’Aeroporto Internazionale di Fua’amotu, a circa 15 km in autobus a sud-est del centro di Nuku’alofa (alcuni voli atterrano anche all’Aeroporto Internazionale di Lupepapau’u, sull’isola di Vava’u).

Per chi proviene da Nuova Zelanda, Australia, Isole Fiji, Samoa, Hawaii e Los Angeles, il collegamento aereo per Tonga è diretto.

Per chi proviene da altre parti del mondo è necessario fare scalo in una di queste località:

Auckland (Nuova Zelanda) e Nadi/Suva (Isole Fiji) sono gli aeroporti con più voli per Tonga.

Il miglior modo per raggiungere il sud Pacifico,  per il vero viaggiatore,  è farlo a bordo di una nave merci; ulteriori informazioni sul sito della compagnia californiana Freighterworld (800-531 7774; www.freighterworld.com)

CAMBIO

Le valute più gradite per il cambio:

-il dollaro statunitense

-dollaro neozelandese

-dollaro delle Fiji

-sterlina inglese

In seconda battuta sono scambiati anche: yen ed euro  senza troppe difficoltà.

I travellers’ cheque sono cambiati a condizioni molto vantaggiose: la commissione è di soli 10 seniti.

-Sono accettati tutti i maggiori tipi di assegni.

Le carte di credito si possono usare in molte strutture turistiche.

– Le carte Visa e MasterCard sono le più diffuse.

Per completare la transazione vi verrà addebitato il 4-5% di commissione.

-Esistono anche  sportelli bancomat, che accettano Visa, MasterCard e Cirrus, a Tongatapue alle Vava’u.

La Western Union ha filiali in tutto il paese, mentre MoneyGram è rappresentata dalla Westpac Bank of Tonga.

Suggerimenti

Tonga è una delle mete meno care del Pacifico.

-Si può vivere anche con T$35 (14 euro) al giorno, esclusi i trasferimenti tra le isole.

-Sistemazione a due letti a prezzi medi con la possibilità di svolgere alcune attività costa intorno ai T$110 (44 euro c.a.) al giorno a testa

-soluzioni più lussuose con  una spesa di almeno T$240 (97 euro) al giorno.

Non si usa lasciare mance e contrattare i prezzi. Secondo le usanze locali una mancia è considerata come un regalo e impone  l’obbligo di contraccambiare il favore.

-Un prezzo, è quello definitivo richiesto dal negoziante. Chiedere lo sconto qui è da maleducati.

  10. Today, I went to the beachfront with my children. I found a sea shell
    and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.”
    She placed the shell to her ear and screamed.

    There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.

    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell
    someone!
