    Suva Fiji Temple
    
    Fiji Museum
    
    The capital city and largest metropolitan area in Fiji, Suva is a destination worth looking forward to when you’re exploring Australasia and the Pacific Ocean. Here, you’ll find an abundance of vibrant culture, sensational cuisine, and unforgettable adventures. Its importance to the region around it, though, cannot be understated; Suva is the socioeconomic centre of the South Pacific, and is slowly cementing itself as the region’s fashion capital too! So, you’ll really be able to enjoy the best of the best when visiting this fascinating city. Those who want to stay where the action is, you’ll find Suva home to lively marketplaces and several fascinating museums, alongside plenty of places to tuck into some flavourful local food. Beyond this, though, you’ll find so much more to enjoy; the Colo-i-Suva Forest Park is just one of these destinations – but, perhaps, the best for those with limited time in the capital city. A luscious nature reserve just a short distance from Suva, the hiking routes here are exceptional; and, if you want, you’ll be able to swim and bird-watch here too. However you feel like spending your time, you’re in for a real treat when Suva is on your itinerary.

    Dravuni Island Village
    
    A stunning volcanic island in Fiji, which is also part of the fascinating Great Astrolabe Reef, Dravuni Island is an idyllic paradise where unrivalled adventure and ultimate relaxation await. With a permanent population of just 125, this miniscule island doesn’t even cover an area of one square-kilometre; it really doesn’t get more remote, and more unspoilt, than this. Boasting long stretches of white-sand beaches, sparkling crystal-clear waters, and the opportunity to truly disconnect from the outside world, it can’t be overstated just how incredible this port of call is. Here, you’ll enjoy an authentic Fijian experience, and find picture-perfect views everywhere you look. It’s like stepping into a postcard, in the best possible way.

Really good shop with lots going on all day and every evening. The formal nights were not very popular with the majority of the customers though. Really good food especially if you have the premium package. Our biggest problems was booking through Iglu cruises. I would not recommend sailing from San Juan as the port is capable of accommodating large cruise ships. The port was gridlocked for several hours with taxis not being able to get into or out of the port. Our biggest issue was that we were not able to book the speciality restaurants although we paid for the premium package that allowed us to use these dining venues for no extra cost. This was due to the Iglu policy where payment to the cruise line is maxed weeks after you make your final payment to Iglu. When Iglu had made the final payment on our behalf we tried to book these venues but we weee unable to do so as they were already fully booked.

Compared to other cruise ships we have sailed on, our cabin was a little too small. the shower unit was much too small and the fixed shower head proved to be difficult for my wife to use. As she is only 5' tall a flexible shower hose would have been much easier for her to use. this applied to the other member of our group in the next cabin as well. .

I have just spent a couple of hours reviewing the Princess Cruise. Comparing this cruise with our previous cruises, Princess come the bottom of our list. Because: the cabin was too small, the drinks packages were far too expensive (so did not use and became tea totalers), the restaurants that did not cost extra were disappointing (the Buffet was very good though), the whole enterprise seemed "money grabbing" (eg. no free soft drinks, no cold water without ice).
