Nadi: Private Temple, Markets, Kava Ceremony & Hot Springs

Journey through the soul of Fiji in a single immersive private day — the technicolour Sri Siva Subramaniya Hindu Temple, the bustle of Nadi's local market, a traditional kava welcome ceremony, and the restorative volcanic hot springs of Sabeto.

What to expect

Your private guide meets you at the Marina gate and whisks you first to the Sri Siva Subramaniya Temple, the Southern Hemisphere's largest Hindu temple, its hand-painted gopuram towering in vivid colour. Next, the charismatic energy of Nadi Municipal Market — tropical fruits, spices, and handcrafted tapa cloth. A kava ceremony with a local family follows, then a soak in the Sabeto thermal mud pools and hot springs, a quietly extraordinary end to the day.
