Australia

Fiji

Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

The flights, airport transfers and accommodations were spot on. Responsiveness from Agent was great.
I would recommend for future clients to inform about the visa requirements (if any). I did my own research and found out I needed a visa to go to Australia I'd staying more than 8 hours. I was able to purchase online but had I not, it would have been a surprise (extra cost) and delay check in at airport. Also, when booking a combination of international and domestic flights try to book as one reservationton to avoid extra luggage fees. Although fees can be paid at the airport at check in, it is double the cost than if would have paid in advance.

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

Loved Port Douglas in Australia. Diving great barrier reef and especially the Sydney bridge climb.
Fiji it rained the entire trip, but shark dive was absolutely amazing.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

I would stay in a different region of Fiji (near rainbow reef).

Travel Company Comments:

Hi Crystal,

Happy to hear that you had a great trip and that you enjoyed your experiences in Australia and Fiji. Sorry if you felt you weren’t advised on the visa for Australia. I did mentioned it via phone and it was also in my email as well as in our general Australia document that goes out with our final documents. For the diving, I know you were excited about the shark dive in Fiji so I am glad it was amazing. We chose Pacific Harbour so that you could do the shark dive in the Shark Reef Marine Reserve, which is the only place in Fiji that offers this experience. I can understand that you would have liked to take in some other areas. I know we discussed the different places to see the soft coral, but knowing that Rainbow Reef was in northern Fiji near Taveuni, you opted to be in the south where you could do more of the adventure activities and go whitewater rafting. We’ll have to plan the northern islands for your next trip!

Hopefully you were able to make some amazing memories, and again and thanks for working with us on your adventure to Australia and Fiji.
