Our journey into the famous Namosi Valley to paddle the Wainikoroiluva ('Luva) River is more than just a river trip. It is an experience in adventure, culture, people and history. It's the trip that our guests most frequently return from with inspiration and a desire to come back; to have the experience all over again. It's a Fiji you never imagined existed, it's the Fiji you’ll never forget.

The 'Luva River trip is "5 Adventures in 1" as it takes you deep inside the Namosi Highlands, visits a village for a traditional kava ceremony with the chief, travels the river by kayak, takes you on a short hike to the tallest waterfall in the Namosi Province and finishes with an exhilarating ‘punt’ ride through the lower Navua Canyon.

To miss this trip is to miss the real Fiji. Join us on this adventure into the highlands of Viti Levu for a once in a lifetime experience.
