About this tour
Experience the culture of Fiji. Enjoy a jungle bush walk or simply laze on the beach, catch some sun and take in the island scenery.
Watch as the crew climbs a coconut tree to retrieve coconuts, then take part in the juice-tasting demonstration fresh from the shell.
Guests then meander over to the lovo pit where Fijian traditions and earth-oven cooking are explained. When the food is lifted from the lovo, Fijian warriors walk the hot stones and coals — then it's on to a fresh, healthy buffet lunch of garden salad, chicken, ham and fish.
