The Luva river adventure combines for unique Fijian experience into a fantastic one-day trip. Begin with an overland journey into the Namosi highlands, which takes you through the islands mountainous rainforest interior. Atop jungle passes, enjoy breathtaking views out to sea before descending into the beautiful and peaceful Namosi valley. This tropical paradise is home to the quaint village of Nakavika, where you're welcomed as a friend with a village visit and a traditional cover ceremony in the home of the chief.
A short walk will bring you to the Wainikoroiluva (Luva) river, where you take charge of your own inflatable kayak. After a brief training session, you're off to play in the Class ll whitewater and rock mazes of the Luva. Enroute, enjoy a picnic lunch in a garden grotto, a short hike to a spectacular waterfall and a dip in the pristine pool beneath.
At the confluence of the Luva and Navua rivers, board a motorized longboat for the reminder of your trip down the lower Navua. Winding downstream, you're treated to cascading waterfalls, lush rainforests, village life and an occasional glimpse of the fruit bat, harrier hawk, kingfisher, parrot and heron that make this canyon their home.
