South Pacific Tours

Things to do in South Pacific

It’s all aboard a cruise that circles the beautiful islands dotting the region. Admire the whales just off Tonga, scale to the top of extinct volcanic craters in Samoa, experience the French influence in New Caledonia or stroll along the bone-white beaches of Rarotonga the centrepiece of the Cook Islands.

The tropical paradise of Fiji boasts more than 332 islands to explore at your own leisurely pace. Our extensive range of Fiji tours will take you trekking along mountain trails towards inland waterfalls, snorkelling on coral reefs as you swim with giant manta rays or high above in a hot air balloon for that bird’s eye view.

If snorkelling and diving’s your thing then perhaps you’ll appreciate exploring the famous President Coolidge shipwreck off Vanuatu, holding a meaningful conversation with sharks off French Polynesia or checking out the underwater World War II museum in the waters of Micronesia.

Our South Pacific tours are a great way to experience the region first hand. Call us now on 1800 046 462 and chat with our experienced consultants today.

    A special package taking you to three distinctly different areas of Fiji's islands. You'll enjoy varied but equally stunning experiences and settings. There are great activities on offer or just swim, sunbathe and soak up the relaxing atmosphere!

    Day 1 Cruise up to the stunning Blue Lagoon region in the Northern Yasawas, scene of the famous Brooke Shields movie. Enjoy island walks, magnificent beaches and coral. Hit the beach at sunset and watch for flying fish.

    Day 2 Snorkel in the Blue Lagoon or enjoy a fantastic trip to the Sawailau Caves where a short underwater swim takes you into a surreal underground cavern (at your own expense). The rest of the day is yours to chill.

    Days 3-4 Mid morning transfer to your next dose of paradise. White Sandy and Korovou share the same beach and beautiful bay and sit just a short walk from each other. Botaira has a stunning location to itself - nothing to be seen but ocean, beach, forest and sky. All 3 are Fijian family-run properties where you'll feel at home with the owners and staff whose home this is. Relaxation is the name of the game here. Chill on the beach or hammock, read or snooze, beer or wine. But if you insist on being active there is plenty on offer.

    Day 5 Laze the day away until your mid afternoon transfer to the Mamanuca Islands. They may be small but they're big on character with some of the best coral reef areas for snorkelling and diving that you'll see in Fiji. You'll also enjoy the swimming pools, knockout sunsets and great hospitality.

    Day 6 Enjoy your magnificent island for as long as you please. Varying return times are available.

what are people saying about tours?

Having not travelled too much I wasn't sure if a tour would be be my cup of tea. Oh how I was wrong, we had an extremely packed 1 week on the west coast of USA and saw some amazing things including The Grand Canyon and Monument Valley, and the small group was filled with great people, very down to earth and loads of fun. Highly recommended!
