Backpacker Tour Punches Above Its Weight In Prestigious Fiji Tourism Awards
Feejee Experience, THL’s Fiji “sister” to hop on, hop off tour bus operator Kiwi Experience, was a finalist in the coveted “Fiji Experience” category at the 2008 AON Fiji Excellence in Tourism Awards this month in Fiji.
The awards gala features the who’s who of Fiji’s tourism industry including island resorts, five star accommodation providers, environmental projects and various tour operators, and Feejee Experience was up against Great Sights Fiji, Kula Eco Park and Sigatoka River Safari’s for the award.
The appeal of Feejee Experience is that it offers customers a unique way to see Fiji, says Quimby, giving them the chance to stay at some of Fiji’s most amazing beaches, interact with local culture on a daily basis, and participate in adventure activites such as sandboarding, a jungle trek, river tubing and bilibili rafting.
They offer a range of trips from four days to 14 days, but customers can extend their pass to twelve months if they want to spend longer at any of the stops. There are also many options to travel to islands such as Mantaray Island, Robinson Crusoe, and Vorovoro Island, where the BBC ‘Tribewanted’ documentary was filmed.
Also making its mark at the Fiji Excellence in Tourism Awards was the Uprising Beach Resort located in the adventure capital of Pacific Harbour, which won “Best Accommodation - Budget.” Uprising Beach Resort was introduced as the second overnight stop on the Feejee Experience route in 2008. The first overnight stop on the tour is Mango Bay Resort, which received the award in 2007.
