Unfortunately I had to cancel my tour due to sudden illness (stomach upsetting ) on the way. The driver picked me up from my resort on time. We stopped at the supermarket, toilet break. After that I became nauseated, and had some vomiting. And also diarrhea started. By the time the driver stoped for toilet for me, (he managed parked the van in such an efficient way!), I became so sick, I felt like lay down somewhere! Then the driver organized a taxi to take me to the hospital. I couldn’t think of anything at that movement but I thought it’s better to get treatment for my symptoms. I’m so glad I did that. Soon after I arrived the medical clinic, I was able to see a doctor straight away and she gave me IV infusion. After I had rested there, I was able to go back to my resort. Unfortunately I couldn’t enjoy the tour I was looking forward to experiencing but I’m thankful to the tour driver “ Scott” ! Thank you, Scott.
This was an incredible...

This was an incredible experience, the guide was knowledgeable and funny! Very easy to talk to. Showed us Fijian culture and their beautiful land. Waterfall was mesmerizing and truly was an awe of the beauty! Drive was far from the Marriott so be prepared for a long day of driving. But totally worth it!
