| nathanroberto21:34 UTC09 Feb 2007 | hey guys,
I am going to Fiji for 9 to 10 days. I am looking for a good mixture of places to go that gives me a good experience of Fiji. I like parting, but not too much. I am a budget traveller, so tips for keeping your costs down are welcome. What do you think. What are good places to go to that gives me a good experience of Fiji in 9 to 10 days?
Any advice is welcome.
thanx!
Nathan

| jirikoo09:50 UTC10 Feb 2007 | Yes, if you wanna spend most of your time with other travellers go west, if rather with genuine hospitality from locals go east.
in either case enjoy

as #3 says, if what you mean by Fiji experience is a holiday with other vacationers, then go to the Yasawas. If you mean Fiji the country, then head west. The island of Ovalau off the west coast of Viti Levu has a lot of variety -- jungle hikes, colonial town of Levuka, some reef island resorts at Caqalai and Leleuvia.

I am looking for some mixture between having a holiday with other vacationers and the Fijian country. I think I am going to take a couple of islands in the Yasawas / Mamanucas and then head to the east of Vita Levu for Ovalau.
I am looking forward to it!
Thanks for the advice!

It's probably a typo, but Ovalau is off the EAST coast of Viti Levu. And I think heading EAST will find less tourists, and more genuine Fijian experiences.

| raro10:30 UTC12 Feb 2007 | oldpro---"scrambled thinking" fits in well with Fiji these days! (govt-wise)

As said previously: Yasawas are awesome to meet RTW travellers...
