Discover Nadi Tour

Our guide Rakesh was amazing us around Nadi, very friendly and professional and had great stories and information as we drove around to the various stops. The discover Nadi tour is perfect for exploring Nadi as it covers a wide range of stops from the Temple, to Mud Pools so you can get a true feel of Nadi.

The temple was amazing. Orchids were beautiful. The mud baths have to be experienced. Very warm spring and hotter pools.

My husband and I traveled to Fiji for our honeymoon. We spent 4 nights at Port Denarau and knew we wanted to explore Nadi and the surrounding area while we were on the main island. We booked the Discover Nadi tour with Rakesh because it included all of the stops that I was reading about in tons of travel blogs about Nadi. We were so excited on the day of our tour because it was just us and Rakesh. He asked us questions throughout the day to tailor the experience to what we wanted to see, and he even took us to a local restaurant on our way home to try the best fish and chips we've ever had. We learned a lot from Rakesh and enjoyed our time with him so much that we ended up booking a tour with him the next day. We went to Sigatoka, which was so cool because we got to see totally different landscapes of Fiji and learn more about the culture and our tour guide. We went to a pottery village, local market, and enjoyed a delicious authentic Fijian meal by the ocean with our new friend. After we stayed in Port Denarau, we went out to an island for 4 nights, but we enjoyed our time with Rakesh so much that we asked him to pick us up from the port on our return to take us to the airport. Rakesh is very knowledgable and helpful. We had a great experience and would recommend hiring him while you're in Fiji!

Our Guide Rakesh was simply awesome. Treated us more like family than clients, showing us the sights around Nadi, as well as happy to customize our excursion to whatever we wanted to see or do. Highly recommend Rakesh and his company for any transport needs or excursions in and around Nadi. Thank you!

Our experience in Fiji has been incredible, and it is notable that this tour stood out from the rest as being particularly unsatisfactory. This tour won't affect any return travel to Fiji, but we will not engage in Rakesh's services again. The parts of this trip that were enjoyable, notably the gardens and the temple, were overshadowed by a lack of respect we felt from Rakesh. Simply, we felt unsafe in Rakesh's presence. He consistently constantly remarked that, if he were younger, he would have approached the 20-year-old girls in our group romantically, and invited us to his home to meet his tenants. He also discussed the skin colour and nationality of some of the group members, objectifying the women from these countries as "fat", "sexy" or "prudes," ruling out any travel to countries that don't have particularly beautiful women. Unwelcome and unreciprocated physical affection, such as hugging and kissing on the cheeks, made them even more uncomfortable. There were elements of the tour that also made us feel used, particularly after spending about an hour and a half in the souvenir shop, despite asking to leave after 20 minutes, as the sales staff (who had specific hand signals with Rakesh) would not take no for an answer. Objectively, the tour was fine, nothing particularly special, and there were advertised options that we were interested in (the tour of the first Fijian Village, for example) but were not available and we were not told of this beforehand. Whilst it was flexible, there were elements (such as the tourist shop and the lunch Rakesh invited himself on that we paid for) that felt forced, unprofessional and dodgy. I can only assume that, as our group was comprised of women, Rakesh took this as an invite to behave poorly. If you do decide to do this tour, bring a man.

Great trip. Best part was the mud baths and Hot Springs, wish we had a little more time here to enjoy a little longer.

Good service & personal interest. Car in very conditions, certainly knows what he's doing. Next trip will book again for sure.

Our tour was guided by Rakeesh, who picked us up from the Radisson Hotel in the morning. The group just consisted of my family of 3 and another traveller which made the tour very comfortable. Rakeesh told us many stories on the way to the sights and gave us the option to skip sights if we were not really interested in. The highlight for us were the mud pools and hot springs.

We loved that we could skip the spots we weren't interested in, and spend more time at the ones we loved!

Was surprised that this trip was private so we had more time to enjoy at our own leisure. Our host gave us plenty of time to enjoy the attractions on this tour.
