Fiji Day Cruise Review 🌴 Is It Worth It? (Honest 5⭐ Experience)
Jo and I booked an 8-hour ‘Authentic Fijian Day Cruise’ through GetYourGuide — and it turned out to be one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Fiji. This full-day island cruise includes snorkelling, food, drinks, and a chance to experience Fiji’s stunning waters and island life in a relaxed and well-organised setting. The tour departs from Port Denarau, but since we were staying at the Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay, we had to arrange additional transfers — which added both time and cost to the day. In this video, I take you through the entire experience — from the transfer and boarding process, through to the boat ride, snorkelling, food, and overall atmosphere — and give you an honest review of whether this tour is worth doing. We were also lucky with timing, managing to do this just before a cyclone passed through the region, with calm conditions making for a perfect day on the water. Spoiler alert… this one scored a perfect 5 out of 5 from us. If you’re planning a trip to Fiji and looking for one of the best day trips you can do, this is definitely one to consider. ☕ Support the Channel You can support my travels by buying me a coffee: 👉 https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maximostravels 🎒 GEAR & TRAVEL ESSENTIALS I USE 📱 Holafly eSIM – stay connected while travelling 👉 https://holafly.sjv.io/Dy53m2 Use code MAXIMOSTRAVELS for 5% off 📸 Insta360 X4 👉 https://www.insta360.com/sal/x4?utm_term=INRM51Q 🎨 Thumbnails made with Visme 👉 https://www.visme.co/?ref=alex58 📷 Follow me on Instagram 👉 https://www.instagram.com/maximos_travels 🎵 Music Royalty Free Music by https://www.free-stock-music.com - Fiji by MusicbyAden | https://soundcloud.com/musicbyaden Creative Commons / Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-SA 4.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ - Mamacita (Instrumental) by Mike Leite | https://soundcloud.com/mikeleite - Summer Stroll by Ron Gelinas Chill Beats | https://open.spotify.com/artist/03JYfsI9Ke7JFuxHD239m2 - Waves by Surf House Productions | https://surf-house-productions.bandcamp.com - Summer Chill Reggaeton | ISLAND by Alex-Productions | https://onsound.eu/ Creative Commons / Attribution 3.0 Unported License (CC BY 3.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US 🌏 TOUR DETAILS 🚤 Authentic Fijian Day Cruise (GetYourGuide) https://www.getyourguide.com 📍 Departure Point Port Denarau Marina https://www.portdenarau.com 🏨 Resort Base Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay https://www.marriott.com 📷 Follow me on Instagram: 👉 https://www.instagram.com/maximos_travels 🎥 Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:40 Transfer to Denarau & Tour Details 02:46 Marina 04:11 Boarding & First Impressions 05:42 Boat Ride & Views 07:02 Snorkelling & Mana Sand Island 11:27 Monu Island & sea cove 13:09 Mondriki Island (from the movie "Cast Away" starring Tom Hanks) 14:37 Food & Drinks 15:25 Island Time & Relaxation 15:48 Comfort & Safety 16:40 Cost & Value Breakdown 18:17 Return Journey 19:47 Final Verdict
