Food! We love it. It doesn't matter where in the world you’re from, we all bond over food. In the South Pacific, locals have lived off nature’s provisions for thousands of years and their ways of preparing and cooking food differ greatly from both Western and Eastern cultures, for a totally unique flavour. Learn more about Fijian cuisine (and eat, eat, eat!) with this hands-on cooking experience.
Your culinary adventure will start out with a tour of the market, where you’ll shop for some of the local ingredients that will be part of your cooking class later in the day.
Supplies ready, you’ll next meet your hosts, a group of local Fijian women who not only love to cook, but also love teaching guests how to cook s Fiji’s most popular local dishes. You’ll chop, marinate, grate, gather, and sort, all under the guidance of your hosts.
While your gourmet dishes are cooking, you’ll have free time to fully explore the local community and culture. Chat with your hosts and learn more about Fijian traditions, help out as the dining area is set for your meal, or take a walk around the neighbourhood and do a bit of hyperlocal sightseeing.
Once it’s time to dine, you’ll get a lesson in local eating etiquette. The Pacific way is without the use of a fork or knife — a style that may seem messy at first, but is the best way to truly experience the tastes of Fijian cuisine.
Stuffed and satisfied from your delicious (and hearty) Fijian meal, you can kick back and relax with your hosts before bidding farewell and heading back to your hotel.
ZIP FIJI’S newest zipline, only 35 minutes from Nadi, is an unprecedented adventure of 5km of ziplines woven into a truly spectacular wildness settings of caves, canyons and mountaintops. Soaring higher, faster and longer than ever before these 16 giant ziplines offer, jaw-dropping speeds, breath taking ocean views with the added adventure of limestone cave exploration. In this tour, you’ll experience three different ecosystems.
The upper part of the mountain is abundant with old growth vesi trees. These are the big hardwood trees are used to make the bowls for the native kava ceremonies. Most of the vesis have been cut down, so this makes the Nadi tour quite unique.

We designed the course so that the Zip Line platforms have unique and stunning views. At the top of the mountain, you get a 360 degree view, and 270 degrees of that is ocean.
