Getting to and around Suva

Buses

There are numerous modern, air-conditioned coaches serving resorts and major towns between Nadi International Airport and Suva.

However, many visitors like the adventure of using the local open-windowed buses so they can take in the sights and sounds of the passing scene. Canvas flaps are unfurled in the event of a rain shower. Local buses also allow the visitor a chance to mingle with the people of Fiji, who by choice and tradition, treat strangers with gracious hospitality.

Every town and village has a bus stop, since this is still the most common form of transportation in the islands. You can also hail any public bus from the roadside merely by waving to the driver.

 

Scheduled Coaches

Air conditioned coaches, chauffeur driven Limousines and professional services ensure the right choice can be made when dealing with Fiji's inbound tour operators.

Fiji's tour operators are also accommodation, tours and cruise booking agents with tour desks located in many of Fiji's hotels and resorts.

For meetings, conference and incentives organisers, Fiji's tour operators offers services to suit your meeting or conference needs and provide unique experiences for your next incentive event.

Taxis

Most people in Fiji do not own a car, so taxis are plentiful and fares are reasonable.

For instance, FJ$2.50 will take you just about anywhere in the average town or city. Urban taxis have meters, with a flag at $1.50 and $2.00 after 10.00pm. But you will find smaller towns and rural area taxis use a fixed price system and almost everyone can tell you the price to local destination.

For long trips, bargain with the driver. Often he'll reduce the fare if you allow him to pick up other passengers going the same way. Some taxis can also be hired by the day or half day for a fixed price, often the equivalent of a rental car.

Rental Cars

Rental cars are available at international airports and major resorts, and are easily arranged from all hotels and motels. There is good bitumen asphalt (hard top) highway from Rakiraki on the north-eastern tip of Viti Levu to Suva, via Tavua, Ba, Lautoka, Nadi and the Coral Coast.
