Nadi: Garden Village Hot Spring & Temple Highlights Tour

2.Garden Village Hot Spring & Temple Highlights Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 339 reviews · 6 hours · from $75

Spend six hours seeing Nadi beyond the resorts, with hotel pickup, an English-speaking guide, and entry fees included. You’ll visit Sri Siva Subramaniya Temple, Namaka Market, Viseisei Village, the Garden of the Sleeping Giant, and Sabeto Hot Springs. Guides such as Bobby and Anand are known for clear local insight, while the mud bath makes a memorable finish.

“Bobby was our guide and he was very friendly and accommodating. The temple visit was pleasant. If you like South Indian food, I would highly recommend ordering to-go lunch at the temple canteen and picking it up after visiting the temple. The food was just delicious! The stop at Nadi shops were ok, we got a few souvenirs there and price was much more reasonable compared to those in the resorts/airports. The fruit market was ok but nothing in particular to catch your fancy. The garden was not as lush as we expected but still the walk and the trek to the top to take in views made it worthwhile.…”
