Travel through sugarcane fields and past coconut palms on the way to the South Sea Orchid Garden. This is the private property of the Burness family, and it boasts an interesting collection of antiques, photographs and bric-à-brac dating back to colonial times when the owner's family emigrated from Scotland.
The garden features one of Fiji's largest collections of orchids. Morning tea or coffee is served in the outdoors.
Next, head to the city of Nadi (pronounced 'nandy') and browse in the Nadi Markets -- a great place to find souvenirs.
You're headed to Sabeto village, where your arrival is heralded with a welcoming ceremony and entertainment. Song and dance play an important role in Fijian culture. The singing of the national farewell song marks the end of the tour as you board your coach to transfer back to the pier.
