Nausori Highland Tour

Nausori Highland

Spent the day in Nausori highlands! Livia Stark was my guide. It was an awesome trip from start to finish. Drank kàva, toured the village and ate a local meal. The scenery on the drive was beautiful. My guide, Livia, was remarkable and would recommend him and also the tour.

Another side of Fiji

Our guide, Tora, took us on a wonderful tour of the Nausori Highlands and village. We stopped for many photos along the way of the Valley of A Thousand Rolling Hills and enjoyed a traditional kava ceremony with Louisa and her family in the village. We saw the school and church, then enjoyed lunch with the family where we were serenaded with songs by the children of the village! It was very special, and we would highly recommend everyone coming to Fiji to book Tora for their tour, to learn more about this lovely island, Viti Levu.

See a rural life of Fiji

Great tour to see rural life of Fiji. Tour starts at 8:30 AM from your hotel and you're going directly east from Nadi to the Highlands. From there you have few stops for photos with great views (can even see Mamanuca Islands from up there) and reach village by around 11 AM. On the way you also buying lollipops for the village kids. Locals will show you around and then you will have lunch. I also had a lot of kava before lunch. After the tour you reach hotel by around 2:30 PM and having a whole afternoon for yourself.

No what was promised

Enjoyed trip to village and had a very good lunch. Unfortunately we didn’t visit the school or waterfall. No explanation given. Tour only took 3 1/2 hours not 5/6. Not happy will change of itinerary without consultation

Disappointing experience

Disappointing tour for my experience: it started off well with a prompt pick up and we headed towards the Nausori highlands: beautiful landscapes along the way and could ask the driver to stop for photos. (Do ask for stops along the way otherwise the only stop is at the top and not the best view in my opinion). After which the next stop should have been a village with a school and lunch at the village. This is where things took an unexpected turn: I was then told the village could not receive me so he would then drive me to the mud pool instead! And no school visit because it was the holidays for the kids! What a surprise: I paid for this tour because I wanted a different and authentic experience! And I ended up exactly where I didn’t want to: the mud pool! Since I expressed my disappointment, the owner brought me to his small village behind the pools and I could have a glimpse of their lives. They did a kava ceremony at the mud pool area and served me lunch there: a tuna sandwich with French fries… let’s be honest that’s far from the expected lunch with locals…

Great information from...

Great information from our guide. The Kava ceremony and explanation. If you want a feel for the real Fiji this trip gives it.

Nice tour!

We had a perfect tour to Nausori Highlands. Special thanks to our quide Abel, driver and the family. -Janne
