It was very well organised. Enjoyed every part including the boat ride up the river to the village visit, to the food, waterfalls and the tubing. Staff was very friendly and experienced

The river tubing was recommended to us by another guest at our hotel. She could not stop raving about the tour so we decided to join in, and we loved it. The tour was really well organised, the pick up at our hotel was as planned, the staff was fantastic and very accommodating to family with young kids. The visit to the village was very interesting, we learned a bit about their culture and daily life. Unfortunately due to the weather we couldn't go for our hike but everything else went as planned. As we were tubing down the river the guides sang a traditional song to us, it was a wonderful moment. The lunch was delicious as well. We were lucky to try some of the local food. We had an amazing time! Thank you!

We love this River Tubing crew! Took a girls trip to celebrate our 50th birthdays this year and this was the perfect adventure for our Fiji trip. Dougie was the best guide with his crew member, Sai, and Captain Cossi on our river boat named Trin. They made sure we were always laughing, feeling safe and comfortable. Sai pulled us through the river so that us girls can relax. We had such a memorable experience especially the authentic lunch and tour of the Village. We enjoyed every moment! Captain Cossi is thee best! Thank you River Tubing Navua River Crew!

We had such a great day with River Tubing Fiji. The boat ride down the river was beautiful, peaceful, scenic, and honestly my favourite part. The staff were so friendly and knowledgeable, and we loved stopping at the local village that’s only accessible by boat. The waterfall swim was amazing, and they took photos throughout the day which you could purchase. Lunch was delicious too. The tubing was super fun, especially the fast rapids. There was more paddling than expected and we did get a bit of friction burn on our arms from the tube, but it didn’t take away from the experience at all, just something to be aware of. There were kids on the tour who loved it and managed everything easily. Highly recommend!

Two old women out for adventure. We had tubed the water canals in Kauai which was a scream a minute. This is several years later and slightly different but Patrick Danford chose to take care of us and a lady with her 6-8 yr old daughter. He helped us in and out of the boats and paddled us down stream with his flip flops (which did not match). He told us of the story of the Danford family of which they are ALL members. It begins with a friendship between Mr. Danford and the cannibal Namosi High Chief. To hear the whole story, you must go. The family is now 7-9th generation and growing. The best [art was in the middle of the downriver run, the family gathered us all up and began to sing. The water falls on one side and a very tall bank on the other made the acoustics amazing. Although we could not understand the words, it was heartfelt. If you get to do this, take to give away as many flip flops as you can. Most of the fellas have big feet but they use their flip flops like fins.

It was a very long bus ride from Nadi. We started at 6:00am and got back around 6:30pm so be prepared for a long day. The boat ride was fun and the lunch spread they had was very good. It was unfortunately raining so a little bit cold but it was so nice floating down the river in the tubes. Be prepared to use some arm muscles to paddle yourself. Overall a wholesome experience
