Bula! Greetings to you from our beautiful Island of Fiji, floating peacefully in the heart of the South Pacific Ocean. This is Sid, your highly qualified and fully licensed Fijian tour consultant and tour guide specialist. I was born out of Naovini Tribe in the central main island of Vitilevu in a small village called Lodoni, where I grew up and lived there happily with my beautiful family uptill today. I am a family oriented, fun-loving, sociable, informative, story teller, lively, respectful, entertaining, humble, consistent, knowledgeable, sports lover, local music player, traditional and full of care and humor type of Fijian branded by heart type of person. My passion about tour guiding career bloomed after discovering my abilities in relevance to the available opportunities back in Denarau Island (Fijis Tourism Heartbeat), while being a Community Marketing Agent with one of the world's longest chain of resorts from 2014. Tour guiding have become something I progressively love to do in watching the level of satisfaction and feedback from our lovely visitors like a sprouting seed and in the knowledge that I have played an important role in creating more memorable Fijian holiday experiences. Moreover, Tour guiding is the only practical and direct way for me to express my pride of Fijis unique diverse culture in evolution, history, architecture, economy, attractions, landmarks, government systems, hospitality, entertainment, natural tropical environment, education, friendliest people and many more. Adding to the advantage are my past (Fiji High School Teacher, Education Project Officer, Community Marketing Agent & Volunteer Community Developer) and present ( Village Headman and Volunteer Community Developer) career opportunities which has shaped and loaded me with high quality information, knowledge and professional personalized customer-centered services in a position to be one of Fijis Top Performing Tour Guide.

We toured with Sid for two days: one day around Lautoka and the other around Suva. We toured with my mobility challenged MIL. He was so flexible with her, including swapping out to a lower profile vehicle to allow her to get in and out easily. He was also very knowledgeable about all things Fiji. I highly recommend him.
Thank you for a great day! Sydney met us easily and early. We adventured through Suva and on to other sights in the area. He is knowledgeable and eager to share his love for his home and people. We returned to port with a comfortable time before our ship all aboard time. Thanks!
Our second day with Sid in Suva was another great day Sid was able to continue his explanations and did a fine job of making connections for us with the history and current situation in Fiji. We highly recommend Sid
We certainly enjoyed our tour with Sidney. He shared delightful stories about his country’s culture and history. The conversations flow so easily that we quickly felt like we were with an old friend. He brought us to some incredible sites. At the village, there were a lot of other tourists. He navigated us around the mob and we got more out of it than the average visitor. As he got to know us better he added a couple stops that weren’t in the original plan. We were glad he added going to a rural municipal market. It was incredibly interesting. We highly recommended Sidney.
Sid is a funny and well informed guy. It was a great pleasure and a great experience to get to know a bit about Fiji and it's people and history.
