Description
Explore Fiji’s cultural roots and natural beauty on a guided tour of the First Landing Village and Tifajek hot springs. Immerse yourself in Fijian traditions and relax in the healing waters.
Begin your journey at the legendary First Landing Village, believed to be the place where the first Fijians arrived on Viti Levu mainland. This historical coastal village holds a special place in Fiji’s heritage, with stories and traditions passed down through generations.
Be welcomed on a guided village tour, offering a glimpse into traditional Fijian lifestyle. Walk through the village, observe the architecture of the bures (traditional houses), and gain a deep appreciation for the customs that have shaped the Fijian way of life.
Engage with the local community, as you are greeted with warm hospitality, smiles, and the chance to witness or take part in customary practices such as a kava ceremony or traditional dances.
Continue inland, leaving behind the coastal views as the landscape changes into lush, tropical surroundings. Discover one of Fiji’s natural treasures—the Tifajek hot springs and mud pools, located at the base of the Sleeping Giant Mountains.
Begin with a warm mud bath, where you cover yourself in rich volcanic mud. After the mud dries, rinse off in the soothing thermal springs. These natural pools are not only rejuvenating but are believed to have healing benefits for the skin and body.
