    Special visit to a local...

    karinroberts63, Mar 2026
    Special visit to a local village on a Sunday when children were participating in a church service. The singing was wonderful. The Garden of the Sleeping Giant was lovely. While the Hindu temple was stunning, stepping on the hot concrete walkways with our bare feet was agony. It was a relief to be traveling in a nicely air conditioned bus during our visit. The tour guide and driver were top notch.

    Friendly Nadi

    Nick_W, Mar 2026
    What a great tour this was.Our tour guide was waiting as promised at the cruise terminal and we were on the road in no time. Transport was a mini bus with driver and a second tour guide giving us a great insight into Fiji culture and history.My wife is in a manual wheelchair and they kindly helped with pushing her around at each of our stops , which we are very grateful for. We enjoyed the whole experience and recommend to all.

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    The guide was wonderful. ...

    anita_c, Feb 2026
    The guide was wonderful. But the young man at the temple did nothing and said very little. He only talked to us when asked and the answer was very short. I think he needs more training dealing with people.

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    Thank you for your feedback. we will liaise with the temple to see if this can be improved however the people at the temple do not do any guiding or escort. our guide will be the one doing all the guiding and explanation. thank you once again for your feedback and for taking this tour with us. Vinaka

    Nadi experience

    Kevin_S, Jan 2026
    The village visited try the hard sell of items they claim are made in the village We had a one on one driver who was excellent and didn’t rush us at all. Great knowledge and English

    Response from Host, Jan 2026

    Thank you for your feedback. Villages do sell things to make some money and they use most of the items that can be taken abroad. we are glad you enjoyed the trip with our driver who is experienced in driving and taking tours. Once gain thank you for your feedback. Vinaka

    Dan_B, Dec 2025
    We had an amazing trip! If you don’t know much about Fiji, this tour is incredibly informative. Our guides, Ville and Eddie the driver, were fantastic. I definitely recommend this trip if you have some time to spare!

    Response from Host, Dec 2025

    Bula Vinaka Great to know that you enjoyed this trip. indeed this tour showcases the 2 main cultures in Fiji. Thank you for your feedback and this will be conveyed to our guide and driver. Vinaka

    Camille_D, Nov 2025
    Henry was a wonderful guide. Took great care of us. The gardens were lovely and had another excellent guide there. The temple is incredible. So glad we got to go inside and see the amazing paintings. Shopping was at a very nice store. The village visit was good. A lot of pressure to buy from the ladies in the village. Overall an great tour. Again, Henry was a delight.

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    Bula vinaka Many Thanks for your positive feedback. This is much appreciated. Henry is one of our pioneers and knows all tours very well. He is one of our best drivers and takes the best interest of our clients at heart. this tour is a very interesting tour as you have said which involves both majority cultures in Fiji. Thanks you once again for doing this tour with us. Best Regards

    Excellent tour!

    Carol_S, Apr 2025
    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!

    Response from Host, Apr 2025

    Bula Vinaka Many thanks for your kind feedback. Kei is one of our top drivers. very knowledgeable and takes pride in showcasing Fiji. This tour is a mixture of both culture of both main cultures in Fiji and also a relaxing Garden visit and opportunity to meet with the locals. we are greatly pleased that you enjoyed this tour with us.

    Kris_K, Apr 2025
    I was the only one the tour so got the guide to myself. The guide was super friendly and accommodating to my needs during the tour. Despite the weather we managed to cover all the sites.

    Response from Host, Apr 2025

    Bula Vinaka Great to know you enjoyed this tour and you were lucky to have the guide to yourself. Although this tours minimum requirement is 2pax, we cater the tour for 1 pax not to disappoint any guests. thank you for the feedback and enjoying this tour with us. Vinaka

    Suva church and village experience

    Katherine_K, Apr 2025
    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.

    Response from Host, Apr 2025

    Bula Vinaka We are glad you enjoyed your tour however we do not have any tour that goes in a long boat. can you advise which tour you took. Thank you

    Poorly Managed Tour

    Robert_H, Apr 2025
    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.

    Response from Host, Apr 2025

    Bula Vinaka Thank you for your feedback. our guides do need to count heads so that they do not miss any passengers behind. we will take your suggestion on board for the Fiji Museum timing. currently we do not have such mics and ear buds to provide to the passengers. we refrain from such due to hygiene issues. clients can explore the markets on their own within the time frame. We do apologize if the tour was not up to your expectation. our guide had covered all the aspects of this tour. Vinaka

    Forced Shopping tour.

    Ronald_P, Apr 2025
    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.

    Response from Host, Apr 2025

    Bula Vinaka Thank you for your feedback. after our investigation we can conclude the following: 1. The we had 51 passengers booked for this tour on this day. our coach is a 48 seater. 2. we had a 48 seater and a Prado (4 seater) allocated for this day's tour. 3. According to our guide, the pickup time given was 0830hrs from Lautoka Wharf and since there was 4 seats yet to be filled, he waited for another 15mins, the bus had left the Port at 0845hrs with 44pax whom all have booked with Shorex . 1 pax did not show up 4. At 0826am ,we received a message from you that you with 5 other passengers (6pax) were waiting at Lautoka Fisheries Wharf . which is another wharf away from the main port where the ship was. 5. we had informed our driver, who was waiting at the main gate outside Lautoka Wharf to check on the 6 pax where he had to connect the 3 pax to our main Bus which had to wait for you at Field 40 Junction due to you not being at the right pickup point. we had inconvenienced other passengers. 6. Our driver had to drop 3 passengers and come back for the other 3 pax at the Fisheries Wharf. 7. Our driver did explain to you that he can join your wife when they reach their first stop which was at the Garden of Sleeping Giant in which they did 8. there was a few minutes stop over at Jacks bus bay if guest wishes to do some shopping 9. As mentioned $10.00 each you had paid - this was not paid to us. I believe you may have paid this to the taxi driver which you may have taken from the main wharf to the fisheries wharf. in the first place you were not to go to the fisheries wharf when the pickup was from the main wharf. this tour was not oversold as we can cater for more than 100 pax for this tour as we have numerous vehicles. you were only separated from your family due to your own miscommunication. we do not have any idea who directed you to the fisheries wharf as we never do any pickups from there. The pick up location is clearly stated as from the Port on this website.

    Wonderful tour

    Kathryn_L, Mar 2025
    We had the most wonderful tour guide Bill (Vill) he was very knowledgeable, funny and very polite and nothing was an issue.

    Best of Nadi

    Guide & driver excellent, friendly & communicative. Enough time at each point of interest, which were all impressive.

    Response from Host, Mar 2025

    Bula Vinaka Thank you for your kind feedback. we are glad you enjoyed your tour with us and this tour is one of the best selling tours which focus on both major cultures in Fiji. also showcasing the friendly people of Fiji.

    Fun culture experience

    CARLY_S, Feb 2025
    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.

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    This is great feedback and nice to know you enjoyed our tour. this tour is a mixture of both major cultures in Fiji and well executed......we are proud to have a very knowledgeable guide. see you again on this tour soon....

    Not amazing, but lovely guide who drove us around

    Tides_M, Jan 2025
    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.

    Response from Host, Jan 2025

    Bula Vinaka, Thank you for your kind feedback. this is much appreciated. During rainy weather it does make the tour dull as you are restricted to the vehicle or shades. we will look into the Village issue and thank you for highlighting this. we will pass your comments to our driver of the day. Vinaka.

    Great tour to discover Nadi in a short period

    Becky_A, Jul 2024
    I ended up being the only person on the tour so it was amazing. I got a personal tour of Nadi and great suggestions. It was extremely hot and humid so I was extremely glad for the AC in the van. I did feel like the Garden of the sleeping Giant was a bit rushed by the garden employee. My driver said I could stay longer but it was so hot so I passed. I wasn't a fan of Viseisei Vuda. I felt like I was being pressured to buy from them. Sri Siva Subramaniya Swami Temple was beautiful, I came prepared and brought socks, if not you can't go inside unless you are barefoot and it was too hot for that.

    Response from Host, Oct 2024

    Bula Vinaka Thank you for your feed back. much appreciated.

    Good tour

    Alisar_M, Jan 2024
    Very friendly driver, saw several sights. Probably easier to rent your own car for more time and see a lot more of Fiji.

    Response from Host, Oct 2024

    Bula Vinaka Thank you for your feed back. much appreciated.

    Perfect to discover Nadi in a short time

    JeanLouis_S, Nov 2023
    Perfect half day tour to discover the main attractions of Nadi and surroundings, plenty of opportunities to take photos and to discover different places. Very knowledgeable guide.

    Response from Host, Nov 2023

    Thank you for your great feedback. Discover Nadi does cover most of Nadi and this tour is the best seller. we are happy that you enjoyed this tour with our best guide. Vinaka

    great tour!

    Jacqueline_L, Aug 2023
    this was such a lovely tour! Kaiyum was a great tour guide and driver and kept us entertained the whole time. we visited all of the sites and also stopped at a cafe for some coffee and snacks. the garden was great as well and it was a wonderful time overall. to note, i had to check in at the tour area right at arrivals (tour transport fiji i think, they have a store area). the whole experience went from around 8:30-1:30 but i think timing could be longer or shorter depending on what you need, i had an earlier flight so we were a little rushed at the end.

    Response from Host, Nov 2023

    Thanks you for your great feedback. this is much appreciated and Khaiyum has been awarded.

    Highlights of Nadi are worth your time!

    Mark_P, Jun 2023
    Great first day of vacation. Hindu temple is impressive—but you must be able to walk barefoot around the large grounds. The village stop was very informative, and crafts were interesting. 30 minutes at Jack’s gift shop was plenty. Tour of the farmers market was interesting, and even bravely tried kava. Garden of the Sleeping Giant was magical, and ended with a yummy fruit mocktail. Very nice intro to Fiji & Nadi.

    Response from Host, Jun 2023

    Bula Vinaka many thanks for your great feedback. we are honoured to received such good feedbacks on this Tour. this is one of the best tours which portraits both main cultures in Fiji. we are glad you enjoyed this our with us. Thank You

    Excellent tour especially if staying at the resorts on Denarau Island

    Cameron_W, May 2023
    We had a fantastic experience with this tour and our driver (Pradeep). With this tour we had our driver taking us to the different areas (Village, Sleeping Giant gardens, Temple and shop). Each of these destinations you are taken on a tour of the destinations by the people that run the destinations. Pradeep was great driving us between the locations and provided us with additional information about Fiji, stopping every so often to provide us with a little bit more information and history of the Nadi area and the greater Fiji area. Could not fault this tour for the price and if you are based on Denarau Island staying at the resorts it is definitely worthwhile to see what Nadi is like.

    Response from Host, Jun 2023

    Bula Vinaka thank you so much for your nice feedback. Definitely this tour is a great tour which showcases both main cultures in Fiji and you get to know more about Fiji and its people. we are happy that you enjoyed this tour with us. i will pass this feedback to Pradeep as he is well versed with this tour. Thank you and hope you will visit us again sometime in the future.

    A nice introduction to the Nadi area

    Karin_C, Mar 2023
    We had a very pleasant guide, William, who showed us around in a relaxed manner and was always ready to stop for photos or answer any questions. It was a nice overview of Nadi and surroundings and a great introduction to the culture and the general area of Nadi.

    Response from Host, Jun 2023

    Bula Vinaka, Many thanks for your positive feedback. this is much appreciated and we are glad to know that you enjoyed this tour with us. William is one of our senior staff and is well versed with this tour and about Nadi.

    Great Nadi introduction.

    Elizabeth_M, Mar 2023

    Bula Vinaka Many thanks for your feedback. Emi is a great guide and most passionate about her work. our driver's are also well trained to take any tour and on safe driving with GPS fitted in all our vehicles. once again thank you very much. Vinaka

    Good overall tour

    John_S, Jan 2023
    Our guide and driver were very good. We were late to leave, which was a bit annoying as we are very punctual people. The air conditioned bus was a relief on a hot day, as was the water that was provided. A little too much time was spent at the village and we could have used more time at the sleeping giant. The punch that was included at the sleeping giant was delicious.I would have liked to go into the temple and did wear a dress for that, however it was too hot to take off our shoes and this was required. You can go to the temple if you have socks on, which I did not know and did not have. Masks were not required which is whatever, but just an FYI

    Response from Host, Mar 2023

    Bula Vinaka Thank you for your nice feedback. we have taken on board your suggestion and thank you for giving such. there is always room for improvement and glad to hear from you. this is one of the best tour of ours. we are gald you enjoyed this tour. Vinaka.
