Viator however should inform everyone regarding the dress restrictions for the Hindu temple and also even the requirements for the traditional Fiji Village tour (ladies, no bare legs or midriff). Also no hats ! Everything else was perfect, the gardens were stunning, the mud pool people could not have been more welcoming and assisted by taking lots of photos for us. Highly recommend this experience.”
