John was a wonderful guide, would highly recommend his tour for a good orientation of the main sights of Nadi and great insight into the unique Fijian culture. He was on time and waiting for us at the meeting location upon our arrival. He was friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable about Nadi and the history of Fiji in general. He walked us through the streets of the town, and we made many stops at shops and markets so he could explain in good detail unique Fijian items and even pointed out tasting samples of delicacies like Kava and seasoned pineapple in the Market (at a small additional price) to try. He stayed with us to guide us through the Temple and for a quick refreshment social at the end of the tour. It was a small group of 6 adults, lots of walking but mostly sidewalks /flat ground. Added costs included a Temple donation of $5/pp, a few samples at the market, and a beverage at the end of the tour which was optional. Vinaka John, it was a great experience!
