Optional Services:
Once group size is viable, we will publish recommendations for booking airfare into Nadi, Fiji. Three suggested itineraries will be available:
Standard Package: Arrive Fiji on Day 1, May 9 and board the ship that afternoon to begin the cruise. No additional services or airport-ship transfers provided. Because this is a ship-based itinerary, this option is NOT recommended. Once the ship leaves port, travelers who arrive late due to missed connections will find it expensive, if not impossible, to rendezvous with the ship.
Pre-night Package: Arrive Fiji on May 8, one day early to rest after the trans-Pacific flight. Included in this package will be:
* Airport-hotel transfer upon arrival in Fiji
* One night in a luxury hotel in Nadi
* Hotel-ship transfer on May 9
Price TBD
Day Room Package: Our ship returns to Nadi mid-morning on May 16. Since flights do not departure until late at night, we offer day rooms in a hotel in Port Denarau to share between 4 travelers. Included in this package will be:
* Use of a day room in a quality hotel to be shared with 3 other travelers.
* Transfers from hotel to airport on the last night.
Price TBD
Nadi Town Cultural Connection Walk: Exploring Nadi is a great way to spend the day while awaiting late night flights back to the USA. This 4-hour experience includes:
* Roundtrip transfers from Port Denarau to Nadi Town with a local guide
* A local lunch at the Corner Cafe Restaurant
* A 2-hour, 2.5 km walk in Nadi Town in small groups led by local guides featuring 3 highlights: Nadi handicraft centre, the colorful fruit & vegetable market, and Sri Siva Subramaniya Swami Temple, largest Hindu temple in the Southern Hemisphere.
Price: $125 per person (10 person minimum)
