Una aventura que te lleva por los caminos menos transitados, que brinda la oportunidad de descubrir más de la belleza del interior de Fiyi. Aprende un poco más sobre la historia del canibalismo del sistema de cuevas más grande de Fiyi: las cuevas Naihehe. Nuestros guías y conductores de todoterrenos están entrenados con los más altos estándares para maniobrar los poderosos vehículos que te llevarán de forma segura y cómoda a la cueva Naihehe, también conocida como la cueva del Caníbal, donde vivía la última tribu caníbal conocida.
Combinamos el método moderno de una barcaza con la antigua técnica fiyiana de bilibili o canoa de bambú para que tanto tú como nuestros cuatriciclos crucen el río Sigatoka y llegar, en unos 35 minutos por el camino menos transitado, a la residencia del jefe tribal.
La leyenda dice que nadie puede entrar en la cueva sin antes pedirle permiso o, fiel al significado literal de la palabra naihehe, uno se perderá si intenta entrar por sí mismo. La cueva tiene más de 170 metros de largo y fue usada como fortaleza de una tribu caníbal. Contempla el horno caníbal, una plataforma de rituales, la habitación del sacerdote y otros recordatorios de su historia caníbal.
Tráete ropa de cambio ya que ninguna visita está completa sin un baño en un pozo de aguas dulces cercano acompañado de tus nuevos amigos.

There’s no better way to experience a culture than to jump right in with the locals. Get a unique perspective on Fijian traditions with this Sunday tour that takes you from a morning church service through to an intimate lunch with a local family. This is the ultimate anti-tourist experience that will take you far away from the resorts and island bars and deep into the heart of what makes Fiji’s people so wonderful.
Start your Sunday Fiji tour by joining a church congregation for the day’s service. Your guide will brief you on the dos and don’ts and give you a history lesson of the islands’ religious practices. This is an extremely intimate opportunity that will make you not just a visitor, but a part of the local community. In addition to taking part in the sermon and readings, you’ll meet local children attending Sunday school and hear the sounds of Fiji’s rich musical heritage by listening to the church choir perform.
Please note that a collection plate will be passed around, for donations to assist with running the church. It is not mandatory to donate; however, if you feel that you want to give a dollar or two, you’re most welcomed to.
Once the service is over and as you bid goodbye to members of the congregation, you’ll meet the family that will host a Sunday lunch with you in their home. The term “bula” is something you’ll hear everywhere in Fiji. It means hello, goodbye, welcome, love, life, and more, and it often is used to sum up the vibe of Fiji itself. One of the best ways to understand the bula spirit is to visit a family — because bula originates from within the family.
You’ll sit and enjoy a cosy meal with a local family, during which time you’ll have the chance to learn about their cultural traditions and history. In Fiji, meals are traditionally eaten sitting on the living room floor, with food spread out on a tablecloth in the middle of the group. Expect lots of good (and filling!) food, laughs, smiles, and warm hospitality.After your meal and conversation, your guide will take you back to your hotel, and you can spend the rest of your Sunday exploring on your own.
On this day cruise, you'll travel aboard the Yasawa Flyer, seeing the stunning and varied scenery of this chain of ancient volcanic islands. Cruise along the coast of the many islands - at the southern end of the island chain are steep volcanic cliffs and unusual rock formations, whilst in the northern Yasawas - home to the famous Blue Lagoon region - the surrounding islands are more low lying with palm fringed, long sandy beaches.
You'll cruise close by endless beautiful beaches, villages and the numerous locally owned resorts catering to backpackers and travellers looking for that something a bit different. Note that it is a long day, but the scenery is truly worth it. We'll provide you with a tasty packed lunch and there is a licensed bar on-board where you can purchase drinks and snacks. Don't forget your camera and enjoy your scenic journey exploring the Yasawa Islands.
Welcome aboard the Fiji One, Fiji's most prestigious charter vessel and one of the largest sailing catamarans in the Southern Hemisphere, where local chefs will prepare a sumptuous fresh barbeque dinner as you enjoy a complimentary welcome drink and take in the views. For a truly luxurious experience, upgrade your dinner cruise to include a full lobster!
Fijian cultural entertainment and the spectacular scenery of the Mamanuca islands round off your perfect evening on the water.
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.
