Our guide was exceptional. Enjoyed every minute. Beautiful scenery and experiences. He went above and beyond in helping us in different locations. His sharing of recent Suva history was enlightening. Exceeded the purchased tour time.

Not as expected

susan_S, Apr 2024

This was not the experience we had come to expect from Viator. It did not start well as nobody was at the quay side with our name, we later found out they were calling our name out. After phoning the operator we met up with a guide. We had booked a customised tour for four people but we were out on a bus with several other people and told what our tour would be. This involved visiting a waterfall, we had avoided this as one of our party had mobility issues. We walked the first part of the trail but then spent the next hour sitting on a bus in the car park. The waterfall visit took 3 hours , after the other passengers left to go back to the ship we had an hour to visit other sites. This was a very unsatisfactory trip and if this was our first experience with Viator it would probably be our last

Dear valued customer, We sincerely apologize for the disappointing experience you had during your recent tour. We understand that your expectations were not met, and we appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve our services. We would like to address your concerns and provide you with corrective measures to resolve the issues you encountered: Lack of proper meet and greet: We apologize for the confusion at the quay side and the inconvenience caused by not having someone there with your name. We had sent day earlier prior to your arrival that your tour guide will have Our company badges with their names tags. However, to avoid such instances in the future, we will reinforce our communication channels with to ensure a smoother meet and greet process. Miscommunication and deviation from the custom tour: Please note that you booked a customized (Shared). This package, as described in the product, is a shared tour with other participants. We were at Exit gate of the Suva port at 9 am as indicated we sent a message before your arrival to notify you that our tour guide will have the company badges and we managed to pick you up at 9am as indicated. Accessibility issues and unmet preferences: In our product requirement and when we started the tour, we announced the itinerary and the program by stating that the waterfalls tour required guests with unrestricted mobility. However, this was not pre notified by several parties of the groups. Hence the reason do the delay. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we want to make things right. As a gesture of goodwill, if you wish you can request a full refund for the tour if you wish as our priority is always about providing the best experience. Best regards, Admin

Best Tour in Suva

Oliver_L, Apr 2024

My wife and I really enjoyed this tour. It was very informative and, since it was a private tour, it was also very relaxing. John and Livinia were great tour guides. We highly recommend them. They were both very knowledgeable about the Fijian culture and traditions, and they taught us a great deal. At the end of the tour, they took us to a Fijian restaurant ( at our request) and we had authentic local cuisine. The kokoda was very good. Overall, this was one of the best tours we’ve taken. And we definitely credit our enjoyment to John and Livinia. Thank you for making this tour special.

Excellent, extremely knowledgeable and interesting guide - a great tour of Suva

Melanie_H, Apr 2024

Peter was an extremely friendly, knowledgable and flexible guide. He covered all the things we were interested in on our ancestry trip to Suva and provided in depth information and many stories we were unaware of about my family. He went beyond the call of duty in trying to help us find the gravestone of my great grandfather and gave us many pointers for our onward search.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

This tour was a special tour for me personally, as I got to meet a great-granddaughter of a man who paved the path for young entrepreneurs like me by challenging the status quo thousands miles away from home. Thank you, Melanie for this opportunity.

Great guide and driver

Jeff_C, Mar 2024

Suva cruise dock was a little bit of a gauntlet with vendors being aggressive. It was nice to have a prebooked tour. Peter was great to meet us at the meeting place on time. He spoke well and was very informative. The village was a nice cultural experience. You see the town and hike thru a forest to a waterfall for swimming.

Thank you so much for this review, dear Jeff, It has been a pleasure and pure joy to have toured you, and we hope to see you back in Fiji.

STAY AWAY FROM VIATOR

Vicki_L, Feb 2024

There was no info given on where to meet driver (at cruise port). Driver is not licensed to enter port. We luckily found him but by then it was 30 min past tour start time. Driver walked us to decrepit parking lot where we were shoved into decrepit taxi cabs with other people. Thus, this was NOT a private tour as indicated. Also, it was not self directed as indicated. The driver took us to a waterfall, and was on his phone texting, doing banking and talking the whole time. He was a nice guy but this tour was not at all what we expected or paid for. STAY AWAY FROM VIATOR

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Bula dear customer, we thank you for this feedback and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused. We will address the issue of drivers talking on the phone or texting while driving immediately to ensure not only the safety of our guests but also that our service remains at the highest level. However, kindly note that we advised you of the pickup point a week before the tour, and also please note that you didn't book a private tour. Taking into consideration your complaint, we will authorize a full refund of this tour as our aim is always to provide the best experience. Please do reach out to us for the refund process. In the meantime, we thank you for this feedback as this will help us improve our services.

Not a good tour

LEWIS_S, Feb 2024

Very disorganized. Meeting place not specified. Tour guide did not speak fluent English and had very little information of the best sites to visit. Very overpriced taxi tour.

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Thank you for your for this review, dear customer, Can you please clarify if you had a tour with us? because this seems not related to our services.

Breathtaking at every turn

Barbara_C, Jan 2024

This tour was one of the highlights of our trip. Our guides were knowledgeable and friendly. We walked the rain forest and down to the lower pools where we enjoyed the waterfall, swimming, jumping off rocks and the friendly laughter and chatter of the locals. Truly a wonderful experience.

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Thank you so much for this review, dear Barbara, It has been a pleasure and pure joy to have toured you, and we hope to see you back in Fiji.
