Sigatoka River Safari Tour - This is a must do tour if you are holidaying on Viti Levu. You are picked up and dropped off at your hotel, the tour guide is awesome, the jet boat fast and the children of the village just adorable. We had Captain Jack who was an awesome Boat Master who also knew all the traditional customs and an all round great guy!

A must exciting tour - We were looking forward to this tour and I must say it did not disappoint us at all. It was a once in a life time experience to navigate the Sigatoka river on this jet boat. Our visit to the village was a new cultural and extremely educational experience. It was nice to partake with the villagers and learn from them from the Kava ceremony, the delicious feast for lunch and the dancing with the members of the village.

A privilege of the privileged. - The highlight of my time in Fiji. Captain Laps and the team were incredible. Such a privilege to spend time laughing, dancing and sharing a meal in a local village as well as seeing so much of the “real” Fiji life along the river.

Amazing trip - The speed boat was fun and the experience in the village was great. We had a traditional cava ceremony and the ladies fed us an amazing traditional lunch and then had fun dancing with the village people. A must do when in Fiji.

A fabulous trip! - A fantastic trip! Very well organised with wonderful friendly staff who made the whole day entertaining. The boat trip with Captain Finni was great fun, very exhilarating and very 'refreshing' on the way back with all the 360° spins! The visit to the Fijian village was fascinating. Seeing how they live and work as a community, and being given such a warm welcome to partake in their traditional Kava ceremony was a real privilege. The lunch was delicious. So nice to know that our visit also helps to support them and bring everyday essentials for us, like running water and electricity , to their village. Thanks to everyone involved. Highly recommended.

Great day trip with lots of variety and an excellent lunch at the Village - Josephine was a great captain and we enjoyed our time out of the boat walking through the village and meeting the villagers. Boat ride was about 20 mins each way with a few hours in the Village. All of the villagers in town and in the river were super friendly!

Sigatoka Jetboat Safari - MUST DO day of fun and culture! - 'Captain Laps' was our guide who also came from the village we visited. He was hilarious and had us laughing all the way. We had a decent boat ride to the village with a few stops on the way to offer local info. A short uphill walk from river to village, we were welcomed by the locals, respectfully witnessed the kava ceremony, ate a very tasty lunch cooked in the Lovo, chatted to the village men and women, danced and listened to the villagers perform songs. The goodbye song left lumps in our throats - just beautiful. We were made very welcome and were invited to sit out of the sun with the men and drink kava while the community room was cleared for the perfomances. Anyone who had brought gifts for the village (not expected but happily accepted) passed them forward and we headed back to the boat. Hindsight, should have packed lollies for the village children. The jetboat trip home was the best fun. Captain Laps made sure we met with plenty of water with his cheeky boat manouvres which cooled us off after the hours in the heat. This tour was the highlight of Fiji for us. It wasn't a contrived tourist village - we were visiting their home. Don't forget sunscreen, hats (for outside at the village) and water! Ladies - a light cover up to go over your shoulders.
