An unforgettable highlight of any trip to Fiji!

5.00This is definitely a highlight of any trip to Fiji. We were picked up at 8am from our hotel. Zac, our driver was very entertaining and knowledgeable as well as helpful. We stopped in town to shop for a bit. You can purchase gifts for the people in the village or give money at the end of the tour which is very nice since they open their village to you and treat you like honored guests. The villages are rustic so be prepared. You can't wear hats or sunglasses in the village, wear sunscreen and shoes with good traction as their is not a dock for the boat at the village. We basically climbed a dirt cliff without much to hold onto. The staff and locals are there to help. Be prepared to take off your shoes when you enter the chiefs hut and the community hall, sit on the floor though chairs were provided for those with mobility issues, participate in the cava ceremony and dances. It's an unforgettable experience and jet boat trip back was a blast. Captain Lap was great!
Making memories!

5.00We had such an awesome day enjoying the unforgettable hospitality from the people in Naveyago. Our guide (Zac) and boat driver (Laps … aka Hot Laps) made the day so much fun and we learned so much about village life and Fijian Culture. Would highly recommend!
Amazing day out!

5.00Don’t know where to start. Such an amazing experience. The jet boats are fun, but it is the welcoming villagers and the staff that make the day. Capt. Laps explains the Fijian story so well. Special mention to our return driver Zak. He is a great asset to this company. His willingness to share his story capped off a great day. If you can only choose one tour whilst in Fiji, make it this one.
Great experience

5.00Leaving Sigatoka with an excellent driver, Zac, we had a great commentary in the bus from Lady Gaga as we headed for the launch site on the river. From there Captain Jack took over in the jet boat and showed his superb driving skills. Arriving at the village we were treated to a wonderful education in the Fijian culture. From the cava ceremony, a greeting, including us all as members of the village for the day, a traditional lunch of all the produce from the village and culminating in being musically entertained. I cannot rate this trip too highly and it was a really valuable insight into real Fijian life. To cap it all Captain 🧑✈️ Jack gave us five high speed spins in the jet boat. Don’t think about this trip just do it. 😀😀😀
Half day lunch is late - take dry clothes!

3.00We booked the half day tour from Denerau which is 1hr 10mins from the start of the tour. Good driver. In Sigatoka, the sign on process took ages. Lot of waiting around for bus to the boats. Recommend eating at that stop. Amusing woman guide on bus to jetty. Great jetboat trip with Captain Jack. We weren't told to bring change of clothes and towel and got soaked by the 360 spins - which were fun! So do take dry clothes - they have towels. Getting from boat to shore only mud-cut steps. 10 min. walk to village then kava ceremony (for those who want), no village 'tour' just a talk. Lunch was at 3.30pm! Food laid out on floor but they did have seating option for us older people!
