Insider Travel Tips
Uncover the secrets to planning your dream Fiji getaway.
How do I plan a Fiji vacation?
To plan a vacation to Fiji, start by choosing the islands or regions you'd like to explore. Fiji is made up of over 300 islands, with Viti Levu and the Mamanuca Islands being popular destinations. Consider booking a travel package with Goway that includes accommodations, tours, and transportation to experience Fiji’s beaches, reefs, and resorts.
How much is a Fiji vacation?
A 7 to 10-day vacation to Fiji typically costs between US $2,000 and US $3,500 per person, excluding international flights. This estimate includes accommodations, meals, and island transfers, though prices vary depending on your travel preferences and season.
Where is the best place to vacation in Fiji?
Fiji’s top vacation spots include the Mamanuca Islands for luxury resorts and water activities, Viti Levu for cultural experiences, and the Yasawa Islands for a more off-the-beaten-path adventure.
What should I wear when visiting Fiji?
Pack lightweight, breathable clothing suitable for Fiji’s warm, tropical climate. Include swimsuits, casual summer wear, a hat, sunglasses, and reef-safe sunscreen. A light sweater for cooler evenings and water shoes for coral areas are also recommended.
What is so special about Fiji?
Fiji is renowned for its stunning coral reefs, turquoise waters, and welcoming local culture. Beyond its picturesque beaches, visitors can experience world-class diving, hiking through rainforests, and vibrant Fijian traditions such as the Kava ceremony.
Is it safe to travel to Fiji?
Fiji is generally considered safe for tourists. Exercise the usual precautions such as avoiding isolated areas at night, securing valuables, and being mindful of local customs. For up-to-date safety information, check government travel advisories.
How long can you vacation in Fiji?
Most visitors from Canada, the US, and other countries can stay in Fiji for up to four months without a visa. Make sure to check specific visa requirements based on your country of origin before travelling.
Is Fiji LGBTQ+ friendly?
Fiji is moderately LGBTQ+ friendly, particularly in tourist areas. While homosexuality is legal, public displays of affection may be less accepted in rural areas.
Do I need to tip in Fiji?
Tipping is not a traditional practice in Fiji, though it is appreciated for good service. Some resorts operate a “staff fund” where tips are shared among all employees. Consider contributing to this fund if available.
What currency does Fiji use?
Fiji uses the Fijian Dollar (FJD). Credit cards are widely accepted in hotels and resorts, but it’s advisable to carry some cash for smaller purchases, especially in more remote areas.
Can I drink the tap water in Fiji?
It is generally safe to drink tap water in major cities and resorts in Fiji, though bottled water is recommended in rural areas and outer islands. To be safe, opt for bottled or filtered water when outside major tourist zones.

ExcellentBased on 5,343 ReviewsWe had a great 3 week trip to India!
It was wonderful and very well planned! Goway had obviously visited each hotel, attraction, and even each rest stop along the way. Everywhere we went we had Goway representatives, local tour guides, and a dedicated driver. We were very well taken care of and it was an amazing experience!
Thank you Harpreet!Nathanael ButlerBrooke from Goway Travel was really great to work with. There was 12 of us travelling and we weren’t all travelling on the exact same itinerary. Brooke worked hard to keep us all organized. She facilitated all the bookings and flights for an African safari and further travel for some after that. The safari out of Nairobi was excellent. Would definitely use Goway Travel and Brooke again. Karen GGoway Travel is one of the best travel companies that my family have used to book a vacation. We worked with Leo Li, a travel agent at Goway to plan a 12 day tour to China called Scenic China: Mountain, Rivers, and Rice Terraces in October, 2026. From the start, the communication was clear and helpful. Leo listened to what we wanted and added a day before the start of the tour and a day at the end of the tour which was requested, booked great hotels, and took the stress completely out of booking flights and transfers.
When an order for tea that was purchased during the tour and not delivered as scheduled, Leo contacted the tea company to insure that the tea order had been shipped.
An entire detailed itinerary was sent to me giving the dates and activity of each day, when and where the local guides were to meet us at each location whether at an airport, train station, or hotel . Goway provided me with a customer helpline to call for guidance, help coordinating services, or urgent assistance.
Leo did an outstanding job of putting together a memorable tour and we would happily recommend Goway to anyone looking for a seamless vacation.Howard TI will always use GoWay when I travel. And especially use my agent Bijal Kana. You never feel unsafe and your transfers and itinerary are amazing. This is my second trip with Goway, having gone to Egypt with them and having an amazing experience. I’ve now traveled to China and also had an amazing experience. The only thing I would improve is that some of the quality of the restaurants were less than I would have expected, sometimes feeling like you’re in a fast food restaurant ..I’m not sure if that’s controlled by go away or the local tour managers. But as far as driving and transportation in the itinerary, it was perfectly planned. The hotels also were top-notch. The tour guides also guide you securely in airports and trains to make sure that you are safely placed in the right area. If i had anything to improve on, it would be the restaurant quality, I expected more of a four or five star restaurant experience, which I would say 75% of the time I felt like we were in a very nice restaurant. Which made me think it was up to our tour guide that chose the restaurants. There were a few times that was extremely disappointed on the location and the restaurant experience. But other times I felt like it was the best place in the world they could’ve chosen so I’m not sure. Please don’t take this as anything against go away. I would definitely use them every time I travel.
I wish I could directly submit a review on each tour guide in each location, which would be much more specific on how the experience went. Maybe in the future they will give a more in-depth survey on each tour guide that you interact with and their choices and their touring style. That being said I still give the trip a 95%. Marina PenderThis Kenya adventure was my second trip to Africa with Goway, and once again, my go-to Africa specialist, Alexandra Hale, worked her magic. She helped create a thoughtfully planned itinerary that included all the must-see highlights of Kenya, with the perfect blend of luxury and adventure.
Our custom journey took us from Nairobi to the Maasai Mara, on to Amboseli National Park at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, and finally to the beautiful Kenyan coast along the Indian Ocean. Along the way, we stayed at outstanding accommodations, including the Tamarind Tree Hotel in Nairobi, the Mara Serena Safari Lodge, Amboseli Serena Safari Lodge, and the Baobab Beach Resort & Spa in Diani.
Every destination offered incredible experiences, but if I could change one thing, I would have added an extra day at the beach to enjoy the coast a little longer.
The in-destination support provided by the Sense of Africa team was exceptional. Their knowledgeable guides enhanced our experience at every stop and ensured everything ran smoothly throughout the trip.
One of my most memorable experiences was the hot-air-balloon safari over the Maasai Mara. Seeing wildlife from above at sunrise was truly breathtaking. The experience was made even more special with a freshly prepared champagne breakfast in the bush after landing.
This was another unforgettable African adventure, and I’m already looking forward to returning to the continent. When it’s time to plan my next trip, Goway will be my first call.ABanksExceptional Service from Leo Liu at Goway Travel
Our recent 16-day private journey through China was an extraordinary experience, thanks in large part to Leo Liu of Goway Travel, who worked closely with me to create a truly personalized itinerary.
What I appreciated most about Leo was his willingness to collaborate with me throughout the planning process. I had very specific ideas about the destinations, luxury accommodations, cultural experiences, and activities we wanted to include. Rather than simply offering a standard tour package, Leo listened carefully to my preferences, offered valuable suggestions, and worked patiently with me to refine every detail.
Our journey took us through Beijing, Shanghai, Xi’an, Guilin and Yangshuo, and Hong Kong. Each destination offered something special, from China’s magnificent historical landmarks to its vibrant modern cities and breathtaking countryside.
The accommodations were thoughtfully selected, including the Peninsula Beijing, Fairmont Peace Hotel in Shanghai, and the beautiful Sugar House in Yangshuo. We particularly enjoyed the unique experiences woven into our itinerary, including the spectacular Gong Yan performance in Shanghai and the scenic beauty of Yangshuo.
What made Leo exceptional was that he understood the kind of travel experience we wanted. He respected my input, welcomed my suggestions, and helped transform my ideas into a seamless and memorable journey. Planning a complex private trip requires considerable coordination, and his professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail were greatly appreciated.
Having traveled extensively, we value a travel advisor who does more than arrange hotels and transportation. We appreciate someone who genuinely collaborates with us to create meaningful experiences. Leo Liu delivered exactly that.
Thank you, Leo, for your dedication, patience, and excellent service. Our China adventure was filled with wonderful memories, and we look forward to planning many more journeys with you and Goway Travel.
Highly recommended for travelers seeking thoughtfully designed, personalized luxury travel experiences!SuzetteI’ve travelled with GoWay Travel for over ten trips abroad.(Australia, Japan, NewZealand, South Africa, Botswana, Kenya/Tanzania.)
Each itinerary was customized to fit my needs, suggestions given to improve the experiences, and the air transportation was arranged.
The consultants have been exemplary, with Brooke Theron being my skilful consultant for this my third trip to Botswana. She was patient, knew her destinations, listened to my wants and delivered an itinerary that was different from my two other trips to Botswana.
Since I now travel solo, I’m very conscious of security, planning, being met and transported from airports to destinations, very good accommodations with excellent food packages, and lots of activities.
This trip rates in the top three of my journeys with GoWay. Brooke booked me into the Kwando Reserve- Splash 3 days and Lebala camp 3 days and 2 days on the Chobe Princess cruise on the border of Botswana and Namibia. Kwando Safaris were excellent and the Chobe Princess was good but not quite what I had envisioned.
The whole trip was flawlessly detailed and executed. I was never left wondering what to do or where to go. GoWay’s partner in Botswana is Thompson Africa. They were very good.
WIth GoWay and their wonderful consultants you can’t go wrong. You are safe and well looked after. I highly recommend this travel company.521810 - Linda Ann Weich - AfricaI want to thank Taha for his outstanding knowledge on Ghana. It was so good to work with him on the planning and the process to Ghana. Everything was amazing, from the hotels, tour guide Leslie, restaurants, and the food. I would definitely recommend Taha to anyone wanting to travel with a group.
Best,
Lisa V HendersonLisa HendersonEarly 2026 I met Alice Teramoto at the Phoenix travel show. I asked her about a dive trip to the Great Barrier Reef. Thankfully I kept her card. About 7 months later I started planning the trip myself. I was overwhelmed after I got my airline tickets to and from Australia and organized a dive boat. Thankfully I found her card. I texted her with my dates and within two days she had a complete agenda to me. It was amazing. She had transport to and from airports, car rental, tours everywhere I was going. I was gone for 6 weeks and I was so happy with everything she planned. I haven't used a travel agent in the past but believe me I would us Goway Travel and Alice again. barbara coy
Everything was looked after and no stress for usJean Willoughby
