Excellent tour! - Our driver, Kei, as well as being friendly and personable, turned out to be a fount of knowledge on the subject of Nadi. He talked about how Fiji was settled, the make up of the community, and the character of the people. It was incredibly interesting to talk to him about all things related to Nadi. We visited the Hindi temple, Namaka market, Viseisei Village, and the Garden of the Sleeping Giant. All along the way, we received mini tours from locals who worked or lived in these places. All in all, a fascinating tour that we thoroughly enjoyed. Kei is a gem, and if we do any Nadi tour again, we will request that he be our guide!

Suva church and village experience - The trip to the church on the longboat was a good experience. The village people were warm and welcoming and shared a wealth of information.

Fun culture experience - We really enjoyed this tour. It was just the two of us, in a clean, comfortable van. The guide was very knowledgeable and very kind. It was cool seeing a different side of Fiji. Would definitely book again.

Great half day tour. - Wonderful tour showing a quick bite of a few sites in Fiji. Although extremely hot and humid, we enjoyed the village tour the most because our guide told us so many things about village life and the Fijian people. When I booked my children were free, so it was much more economical than booking a tour where they were half the adult price. I believe we got value more for money this way.

Not amazing, but lovely guide who drove us around - It was pouring on the day of our tour, but it was still enjoyable. The visit to the village was a little underwhelming. We were given an insight into the history of it, but really nothing to see there. On the way out there were the local ladies selling tourist stuff at inflated prices. The walk through the Gardens of the Sleeping Giant was nice. The visit to the temple was also underwhelming, lots of scaffolding everywhere, as it's undergoing renovations. Our visit to the market was nice. The highlight of our trip was our lovely driver Kumar, who was very interesting to listen to, and was very informative on all things Fiji. He was very accommodating with everything along the way. So the tour itself 3 stars, Kumar 5 stars.

Poorly Managed Tour - Tour Guide, Mr. T., ceased counting passengers heads when returning to bus resulting in wasted time. Having more than 30-minutes at FIJI MUSEUM would have been nice. If guide had used mic and passengers used earbuds, those at the end of the single file line walking through the Market would have had a clue as to what we were about to see ... when the line moved forward.

Forced Shopping tour. - I am requesting a full refund of this tour. We paid an extra $10 each for one if their pick up points. The company charged the pick up site to cruise port and did not notify us or 2 other couples. We waited 45 minutes past pick up time in high temps before one member of the group got through to company and someone came to get us,if not we would have been left. The tour was over sold and my wife and I were left in an EXTRA vehicle with a driver. Saw the rest of my family at first stop and not after that. My wife and I were basically excluded from the tour. I expect Viator to make this right and refund our fees.
