EPISODE SUMMARY
Normand Schafer speaks with William, Managing Director of Rivers Tubing Fiji, about a full-day river journey on the Navua River: a scenic boat ride up through gorges and waterfalls to a remote village, a waterfall swim, a riverside lunch with both familiar and local dishes, and a tubing float back downriver with options for all comfort levels. William also shares what to bring, the best time of year for higher water and bigger rapids, and a personal family history connected to the river.
