The Mudpool was a nice experience. We also really enjoyed the options for adding the massage and trip to the Sleeping Giant Gardens. The hike to the top of the mountain was breathtaking. Thank you you Raoul for being our driver/guide. TIP: It's good to convert cash to FJD for the extra expenses. There's also local items/ souvenirs for purchase at the mud pool.

The day started off a little bumpy, but once we met Deo all my concerns vanished. Deo was directly responsible for us having such a wonderful excursion. First of all, we lucked into a private tour, so it was just my wife and I. Then as we were driving to the mud pool, he told us stories and history of Loutoka and Fiji and his ancestors. When we got to the mud pool, we were the first ones there since the tours from the ship arrived significantly after we had been there awhile. Anyway, Deo showed us to the mud, the cleansing pool, gave us instructions, took pictures and kept guiding us. On his suggestion, we both got a one hour massage and that was just a slice of heaven! Afterwards, since we had talked about seeing the Garden of the Sleeping Giant, he took us there. That place is incredible! He parked the car, guided us in, introduced us to Ray and let us go and explore at our pace. When we were done, he met us at the lounge area, got our drinks for us and even pointed on of the fans in our direction. Heading back into town, I asked if it would be possible to stop at a pharmacy. Deo took us without hesitation and I was able to get what I needed. He then took us back to ship. All day long, he was patient and NEVER made us feel rushed. He told some great stories and filled us in on some great history. Deo is truly a gem of a guide to this company and an asset to Fiji!

Was beautiful experience and lovely day. Massage and hot pool made us feel extremely refreshed after a morning of zip lining. Couldn’t fault it.

This is a must. So fun and unusual. Residents of the village were simple wonderful. Learned much about their culture. Highly recommend.

I wasn't gonna it, BUT I DID! It was FOMO - fear of missing out. It was what it is - a mud bath, except you personally cake oneself in mud and then dry, before getting into hot pools and various states of cleanliness! Hated having to take off my jewellery and just leave it with my bag near entrance - it was safe, but would have preferred not have ha to leave it unattended. I couldn't put this on my face but I managed to get well coated otherwise. I guess it's one of those must dos - back at the hotel it was hard going getting the black staining out of skin creases - even the next day I found grey bits! Wear whatever item is throw away - I went for a bra and knickers!
