It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of iTaukei Werelevu Nakutadrodro Ratu Timoci Nakaikoso.

This wonderful man who we have admired and respected since our humble beginnings in 2006 has been called to eternal rest.

As a tribute to this great man and as a mark of respect, we will close all operations on Friday 3rd May 2024 to allow the vanua to perform the funeral and burial customs of our dear friend and family member, lovingly known by all of our team.

Many of our guests will have fond memories of visiting Ratu Timoci in his chiefly house high above Jubairata village and will have equally fond memories of sharing the traditional kava ceremony in his house getting to know him and of course by extension his village. Ratu Timoci made all welcome and his BIG HEART was renown for his generosity to all. His presence will be sorely missed but his memories will be forever cherished.

We send our sincerest condolences to his matavuwere (family) and the extended vanua of Nabuavaju for the passing of Ratu Timoci Nakaikoso.

REST IN LOVE RATU

We were very happy to welcome the NEORA group on Safari. The group of 48 intrepid travellers ventured into the "Heart & Soul of Fiji" with the SAFARI team and travelled to their village of MAVUA.

The team were accorded the traditional Fijian yaqona (kava) ceremony and welcomed into their village. Allowing the group to fully immerse themselves into their new village life, they were given a tour of the village before being invited to "BUILD A DESK" for the Lewa Ni Nabua Kindergarten.

The group were wonderful on the tools, building 15 desks for the children and also ensuring the desks looked the part, they were given a coat of paint and allowed to dry in the midday sun.

To say the generosity of the group was appreciated would be an understatement as the people of Mavua presented a second bowl of yaqona to thank the NEORA group again for their amazing gifts of building the desks and the additional assistance of sports equipment, schooling supplies and more.

The feedback from the group included comments like "great experience", "this was a very authentic experience" and on top of this it was the non verbal affirmations of happiness when tears streamed down the cheeks from one of the group members when seeing the children in the kindergarten and knowing how much their help will make a difference.

VINA VALEVU DJINA NEORA!!!

It was 12 months ago today that our operations roared back to life, after the forced hibernation from the global pandemic that was Covid19.

Our small but incredible team returned to the place we love and the role we love, that is sharing the magic of the Fijian interior with friends from all over the world. In the past 12 months we have been so lucky to have welcomed thousands of new friends onto the world's best Safari jetboat experience and we have been so fortunate to be able to welcome so many familiar faces from friends who came out on Safari with us, in some cases from almost 15yrs ago.

The experience of Covid19 has certainly taught all of us so much about what is important. We have made changes to our operations, which is aimed at improving everyone's work life balance. We have also welcomed a new village into our rotations, increasing the number of villages we work with to 18.

The Fijian tourism family have done an amazing job to bounce back so quickly from the 19mths of inactivity and this showcases the resilience of our wonderful industry.

With the future never known, we simply say to all our friends, colleagues and future visitors to Fiji that we wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year. The age old adage of happiness being a journey and not a destination, is so true and we would like to leave you with this quote:-

“ Happiness, not in another place but this place…not for another hour, but this hour.”

Live in the moment friends and remember "Fiji - where happiness finds you" :)
