Vuda Lookout, Vesisei Village, Market, Temple & Garden of Sleeping Giant Tour

We had the most amazing and wonderful trip, our guide Tui was fantastic and an absolute fountain of knowledge, there was no rush at any of the sights and we felt that we got to really see and understand the amazing highlights. Our driver Jonny also made us feel safe and he was also friendly and helpful They both made our trip one we will remember Vinaka Tui and Jonny, sota tale.

We went on this trip on our honeymoon with our 15 month on old son, Naveen our guide was excellent and really made us feel like family. Next time we are in Fiji will be using these guys again!

This was an Excellent tour and cultural experience, that we would highly recommend. Our family were well looked after by Neveen, Who was very knowledgeable, welcoming and was a great guide for our family including children. We felt like family and thoroughly enjoyed our time.

I was picked up separately from the rest of the tour group from my hotel and someone from the other pickup held up the tour. I had to wait a while with the first driver who was nice enough to give me the wifi password. I wasn’t able to get settled in the other vehicle when the others arrived. I had to go straight into the temple; this didn’t endear the rest of my group to me. The group were all seniors and I had nothing in common with them as I’m a lot younger. The tour guide was really nice, helpful and informative but I felt like I was on an old people tour that was slow as molasses. I liked the garden of the sleeping giant and the Vudu lookout. The Vudu lookout stop has a beautiful view and the fruit was really good. I really disliked the village stop. It felt like the only reason we were brought there was to buy useless crap. Women set their merchandise and make you feel guilty for not wanting to buy their crap. Plus, who do you choose??? I understand that it helps their village but I feel like there has to be a less obnoxious way to go about it.

Had a lovely tour with our guide Bob. As expected we visited the produce market and were directed to specific vendors to purchase goods. But we walked around and looked for the best displays of fruits and vegatables. Came prepared with our shopping list for the week, so it was a success. Enjoyed the Orchid and Botanical gardens and our small group took the long loop. The included lunch/snack was local fruites and vegatables at the view point. It was as expected and a lovely day.

We were picked up exactly on time and enjoyed everything about this tour. Our guide/ driver was knowledgeable and informative and willing to answer any questions. We visited the Hindu temple and he helped explain a lot about the Hindu religion. We visited the local fruit market and he helped us find and choose the things we wanted. We enjoyed the garden of the sleeping giants and he got us there ahead of the tour buses. The visit to the Fijian village was a real highlight as we learned more about their culture. The last stop at the Vudu lookout gave us wonderful views of the island as we enjoyed fresh fruit and juice. One suggestion- take something to clean your feet after walking through the Hindu temple. You have to remove your shoes and your feet end up pretty dirty by the time you finish. We were fortunate to have some wipes to get the dirt off before putting our shoes back on.

Really nice tour. Great views, refreshing fruit and drink included. Our guide Bobby was awesome, patient and knowledgeable. My daughter and I were picked up in an air conditioned car and it was just the 2 of us on the tour. Bobby stopped anytime we wanted to take a photo of something and was very friendly.

It was a great half day tour and our guide Vincent was very informative. He knew about local culture and attractions and explained all the way. Although it was cut short due to rain we saw a few famous attractions within 3 hours. Can recommend to anyone looking for a action packed short tour.

My husband and I enjoyed seeing Fiji from many viewpoints. We drove through Nadi passed sugar cane fields and villages. Naveen, our guide, shared a lot of information about the area and the many cultures of Fiji. From Vuda Lookout we could see the mountains, ocean, city and villages. Beautiful! We went to a village where students were getting out of school and we learned about the history and customs of the people in the village. Very interesting! We finished at the Garden of the Sleeping Giant. It was spectacular. We were lucky enough to be there when they were preparing for a wedding. Just imagine walking through an orchid garden, down a wooden path surrounded by lush plants and trees, passed a pond to a clearing. Great place for a wedding.

Today we had a wonderful tour with our friendly driver Naveen. From the moment we met & throughout the 5 places of interest, Naveen was informative, friendly & we felt very relaxed in his company. His knowledge of Fijian culture & history was excellent. We hope to do more tours with Naveen as our tour guide & driver. Thanks for a great day Naveen - Cheryl & Joe
