Explore the South Pacific's finest ethnographic collection at the Fiji Museum, then take high tea at the legendary Grand Pacific Hotel — the same colonial gem that once hosted royalty and served as Fiji's social heartbeat. Curated, leisurely and utterly refined.
What to expect
Your polished private guide meets you at the gangway and narrates the city's story as you walk through Thurston Gardens' tropical blooms en route to the Museum. Inside, Lapita pottery, war clubs and colonial-era photographs paint a vivid picture of Fiji's layered history. A short stroll delivers you to the iconic white-columned Grand Pacific Hotel, where chilled passion-fruit juice and classic tea sandwiches await on the verandah. The afternoon light on the harbour here is simply perfect. A loop through the Municipal Market adds colour and spice before returning to the ship.
