  1. Jet boat safari on the Sigatoka River, Nadi1

    4.9· 1162 reviews· 4.5 hours

    Four and a half hours on the Sigatoka River — jet boating, a village visit, and cultural interaction with locals included.

    This experience was a wonderful blend of culture and enjoyment. I initially thought it would be mostly a commercial venture for a small community, but I was mistaken. We visited a remote island village where the locals warmly welcomed us and shared their lifestyle during the tour. We participated in a Kava ceremony and enjoyed a lunch made with ingredients sourced from the village, followed by dancing with women and children. Despite my usual discomfort with public dancing, I found myself joining in; it felt liberating. People of all ages, from 5 to 77, had a fantastic time and managed well throughout the day. I recommend taking advantage of the return transport since it’s over an hour’s journey one way, even though it’s only about 44km from the Hilton. Our friendly guide and drivers made us feel at home. Plus, after a long day, it was nice to be able to nap without any worries. Be sure to hydrate beforehand and bring water on the boat, as the village visit takes longer than anticipated, which is just a helpful tip. Overall, it was an amazing day.Louise_B

    2. Quad bike adventure tour in Nadi

    4.9· 453 reviews

    Two to three hours on quad bikes — ride through cane fields, pine forests, and enjoy a snack with views of the Mamanuca Islands.

    I had a fabulous experience. Our guide, Sarah, was exceptional and it was definitely worth it. The views were stunning. I recommend the morning session since the afternoons can get quite hot. Just a heads up, there’s a $30 per person insurance fee payable upon arrival that we weren’t informed about beforehand.Narelle_B
  3. Giant zipline adventure in Sabeto Valley, Nadi, Nadi3

    3. Giant zipline adventure in Sabeto Valley, Nadi

    4.7· 29 reviews· 6 hours

    Six hours of ziplining over 700 metres across waterfalls and through jungle, with safety-focused trained staff and options for kids and dinosaur enthusiasts.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Zipline Fiji. It was fun for everyone, from my 7-year-old daughter to my 80-year-old father. The zip lines were excellent, the staff was fantastic, the pizza for lunch was delicious, and the hike to the waterfall was definitely rewarding, especially the refreshing swim afterward.JayB11
