Excellent and fun adventure!! - Excellent and fun adventure! Dougie and his staff, including Cookie and Nicky, provided an outstanding, fun, enjoyable, and safe adventure from start to finish. We traveled upstream by motorboat, visited a Fijian village (where all the villagers were attending Sunday church services), swam in a striking waterfall, ate a Fijian lunch by the waterside, and then negotiated a series of thrilling rapids while floating on tire tubes. While on the water, Dougie, Cookie, and Nicky serenaded us with a series of lovely and moving gospel tunes in the Fijian language. A marvelous excursion from start to finish. Highly recommended!

I would give more than 5 stars if I could! - We did this tour on a cruise ship stop. It was absolutely amazing and I highly recommend it. We would be likely to do it again on another visit to Suva. We were a family group (mum, dad and two kids 8yo and 5yo). We were a bit concerned about how the kids would go with the river tubing but it is very safe. We all had life jackets on and the 5yo sat on dad's lap in the tube. The 8yo was fine in his tube and was the first in the line of tubes next to the guide as we went down the river. We all felt very safe and the kids loved going through the rapids and getting splashed. The trip starts by getting everyone ready with life jackets and tubes. At this point leave anything you won't be taking with you (change of clothes). You can hire reef shoes and dry bags as well which was great. Then a trip up the river on a long boat. There were 7 of us in the boat with our guide, Cookie, and our boat captain. It is a bit difficult to get in the boat and if you have mobility issues this may be a barrier to doing this tour. The team were amazing though and I am sure would help you if you needed it. First stop was to drop some tubes off for later in the day. Then we went to the village. I am generally sceptical of village tours as sometimes they are quite contrived. This was very genuine though. We walked through the village very respectfully. No one was on show and Cookie explained how these tours have improved the lives of the residents which was lovely to hear. Next was a waterfall swim a bit down river. This involves a walk of about 5 minutes and if you have mobility issues may be difficult. Lunch was next and absolutely delicious served in the middle of nowhere. Amazing. Then it was time for river tubing. We were given a safety briefing and then helped into the tubes. Riding down the river was fabulous. Cookie took great care of us and the other members of our group. All of the guides were great. Knowing exactly where their group members were at all times and knowing which places in the river to avoid and which ones to head for. It was probably about 45 minutes of floating down the river in the tubes and we went through several rapids. The scenery is stunning! Back at the start we had time to change and get a hot drink if we wanted and then we were taken back to our cruise ship with plenty of time before all aboard time. We loved it. Their 5 star rating is very well deserved. My one thing I would do differently is to (as our van driver said) accept that you will be wet all day. It was intermittently pouring with rain throughout our day in Suva. They had recommended in the pre your info we bring a change of clothes. We did for the kids but didn't for ourselves thinking we could just put our clothes back on over our bathers. It was fine because it was nice and warm but having a clean change of clothes back at the base would have been nice.

Great adventure - The trip was a blast. The guides were great and a lot of fun. The waterfall was awesome and the food was good.

Great day out - Great day out. Authentic village visit. Nice waterfalls. Fabulous Gorge scenery along the river. Best part was River tubing downstream and over small rapids. Loved our guides singing. It was wonderful as we floated along.

River Tubing with a Serenade! - Fabulous day! Dougie and Cookie made this day unforgettable. They so appreciate (all of them do) tourists to their home. The lunch was great and authentic. The float was so fun and when all the guides gathered together to sing us down the river with some gospel songs, it was beautiful!

Fabulous day in Suva Fiji! - A wonderful day you need good water shoes because there is some walking over uneven surfaces. Walk to the water fall is fairly steep

So special - loved every moment. - The tour that kept on giving. We loved every moment of our tour. The educational bus trip to the river, the longboat ride up the river, the visit to the remote village, the dip in the water at the waterfall, the wonderful bbq lunch, our entertaining guides were so happy, helpful & caring. The tubing was so much fun & the surprise singing performance by our guides while floating down the river in such a beautiful remote environment was so special & something I will never forget. Thank you Cookie, Ben, Molokai & the other guides!!
