Fiji Coral Coast Venture

A fun way to see some of the real Fiji

We loved our trip with Sonny. Lots of fun, heaps of interesting local information and great sights. Natasha beach is lovely and a perfect spot for a swim. The jetty was also a great stop and our guide (Sonny) couldn’t it have been better. He really made the tour for us. Would highly recommend not just this tour but getting out and about in Fiji rather than starting at a resort for your trip.

We lost $250 for dodgy “tour” booking, which was just a car & Indian driver.

We booked this tour to take when visiting Lautoka on a visiting cruise ship. From the outset the communication was poor. We were originally told to meet the tour guide at the cruise port at 8am. I then noticed all the booking information said 9.30am. We arrived off the cruise and ALL tours and taxis were on the port. We couldn’t locate this tour anywhere so we called. The Indian Guide was very unhelpful and unclear with instructions. We were told to leave the gates of the port and go onto the roadway. I have no idea why they couldn’t come onto the port like all other tours or why at least the tour guide (which we later discovered was basically a taxi driver) didn’t meet us with a sign so we could locate them. We called several times and were given poor directions, then they hung up on us. We then called back several times to no avail. Please see screen shots which clearly show that 1. The tour was meant to leave at 9.30am, not 8am. That we were to meet at the Lautoka Port (not away from all other tours on the outside gate on roadway). That calls made were avoided. Note: after writing this we note that Tripadvisor doesn’t allow screen shots, only photos. The tour company refused any refund or resolution, just kept arguing with us, saying they were waiting since 8am. We DO NOT recommend this “tour” group (taxi or private car). Very dodgy and untrustworthy. Book elsewhere NOT here. We lost $250 then had to pay another $250 to another Fijian Guide to take us around.

Great tour!

Sunny was our guide on this tour. He was so nice, helpful and happy to let us do things at our own pace. The tour does indicate it includes bottled water but Sunny indicated we couldn’t offer it. He did get us fresh coconuts to drink from at the jetty. You might wish to take along your own water as we did. We saw many sites and villages during our drive from Nadi to the Coral Coast area. We did not wear our swimsuits and wished to change. We just let Sunny know and we stopped at a clean convenience station where we were able to put our suits on. There are not facilities at Natadola beach so no where there to change or use toilet. Natadola was probably the most beautiful beach and water we’ve ever seen. If you plan to swim here be aware the water is not calm. The water felt wonderful but had some powerful waves. We also got massages from some lovely local ladies while at the beach. The jetty was a nice visit. We wandered out and viewed a few starfish and other fish along with enjoying the ocean breeze and beautiful view. Sunny dropped us off in Sigatoka for about an hour with a couple of restaurant recommendations. We chose to eat at Shiva and it did not disappoint. Had some delicious prawn friend rice and chop suey. This was a great tour with a great guide. So glad we did this one!

A wonderful day spent!

I'm very glad that we chose this tour. It's a private tour and we were guided by Sunny, from Iconic Tours, whose knowledge of Fiji and the Coral Coast was insightful to us first time visitors and made for a great trip. The highlights were the drive itself and the time spent at the stunning Natadola beach. Sunny is a very polite guide with a great sense of humour. He ensured that all of us were comfortable throughout and was the key reason why this tour was one of the main highlights of our Fiji trip. Highly recommended 👍

Thank you Iconic Tours

We had a great day out with Immu from Iconic Tours. He was very punctual, professional and attentive and made sure we enjoyed our trip. He was also a very safe driver and was knowledgeable on local information. The itinerary was flexible and we could adjust the time spent at each location. Natadola Beach was stunning and we enjoyed a lovely massage on the beach for a reasonable price thanks to Oni. Sigatoka town was interesting, but in my view, the markets were not worth the visit. Overall, we enjoyed having a look around in what was effectively a private tour.

Vinaka Sunny!

Sunny was an excellent, knowledgeable tour guide. He took us around the coral coast and made sure we were taken care of, and that we wouldn't be paying increased tourist prices. He is funny, and made the entire trip enjoyable, educational, and entertaining. Fantastic work!

Personalised and intimate tour

We had a very intimate, knowledgeable and fun Coral Coast tour with Sunny and Pretti. We learnt so much about the Coral Coast and local culture. Sunny is very knowledgeable and shared so much with us, including his personal stories. His sunny disposition (no pun intended) and great sense of humour added to the greatness of the trip. I am very thankful for new friends made and we will definitely be coming again!

Nice tour if you don't have anything better to do

It turned out to be a private tour, 1 car just for us the family, Sani the guide was a very happy and friendly personality, was talking about the sites all the way through, let us make our schedule as we preferred it and dropped us off where we wanted. All in all a fair tour as the places we visited didn't have anything extraordinary to offer, wouldn't say it was worth the money.

Beautiful day on the coral coast with sweet driver Immu

The waterfall was beautiful, everyone in the village was so friendly and natadola beach at sunset was the perfect way to end the day! Our tour guide Immu made sure we felt safe and was very informative and answered all our questions and changed around the itinerary based on our wants. Such a sweet day!

Scenic adventure

The road trip across sugar cane plantations, pine trees, villages and arrival at a sandy beach. Driver was very helpful.

I booked a tour via...

I booked a tour via Viator & our tour guide yesterday was Sunny from Iconic tours (+1 (679) 920-4246). Sunny was very accommodating, his personality & service is top notch! It really shows that he loves and passionate about his job. He always made us laugh, he is very knowledgeable & seems to know everyone in town. He truly cares about his guests & treated us like family. He even bought us coconuts & corns. It was the most wonderful Fijian experience! If you want an energetic tour guide that loves to share the beauty of his country Fiji, he’s the best! Your full day trip will always be full of sunshine, if you book with Sunny!

Would definitely book through Iconic Tours Fiji again!

Sunny took our family last minute on a tour to the Coral Coast. As it was just our family it was cruisy and at our pace. He was friendly, good humoured and full of information. I am so glad we chose to do this tour through Iconic Tours Fiji. Thank you for fitting us in and for our information filled lovely day.
