Fiji is a great year-round destination with warm tropical weather. We recommend the best time to visit Fiji is from May through to September as these are the cooler months but are also high season.

A rain jacket and sturdy shoes are also advisable for exploring the islands. Take plasters and medical supplies, as there are very limited supplies available on the islands. If you’re taking a domestic flight please note baggage allowance is restricted.

t's best to check with Fiji Biosecurity for a detailed list of restricted items before packing. Pre-packaged snacks and processed foods are generally allowed and must be for personal consumption only (not commercial). Please note you will need to be declare upon arrival.  

Do I need to hire a car to get around in Fiji? 
Hiring a car is not essential as there are plenty of transportation options including taxis, buses and hotel shuttles. However, renting a car can offer flexibility and convenience if you plan to explore at your own pace. 

 

Where is the best place for diving in Fiji? 
Fiji is renowned for its diving spots, with some of the best locations in Savusavu, being the ‘Great Sea Reef’ and the ‘Namena Marine Park’. Taveuni also known as the garden island for its plentiful plant life is also home to the ‘Rainbow Reef’ and Fiji’s most famous dive site of all, ‘Great White Wall’. These areas offer vibrant coral reefs, diverse marine life, and excellent visibility. 

 

How can I get around Fiji without a car? 
If you're staying on Denarau Island, we recommend using the Hop-On Hop-Off Bula Bus. This open-air bus runs every 10 to 15 minutes and stops at all the main resorts and key tourist hotspots on the island. For a complete Fiji experience, we recommend island hopping. The easiest way to travel between the Fiji islands is by ferry. Several ferry services run daily from the main island, Viti Levu, to other island groups. From Port Denarau Marina, you can reach the Mamanuca Islands in 45 minutes to an hour, while the more remote Yasawa Islands are accessible in about four hours.

Hi, I’m Jo and I joined the House of Travel Papamoa team in April 2022 not long after the borders opened and it’s fair to say it’s been crazy busy ever since!  No two days are the same and I thrive working in a fast-paced environment.   I have been working in Travel for around 10 years and started in January 2009 at Flight Centre Mt Maunganui and then moved to Auckland in 2011 to step into a management role to open their new retail store in Royal Oak.  I then moved back to the Tauranga area in early 2013 and opened the Flight Centre in Bayfair.  Opening two of Flight Centre’s stores gave me an incredible learning experience and insight into building a business and taking it to incredible heights!  I was also in charge of training multiple new to the industry staff members.  Before Travel I worked in banking for 4 and half years both in the retail branch and the business banking team. 

I have great attention to detail, excellent communication skills and am down to earth, friendly and approachable.  I love meeting new people and building relationships with my clients.  I love putting together itineraries and working closely with you to find your perfect fit.

I'm passionate about travel to Canada and the UK.  As I lived in Vancouver for 6 months and London for nearly 3 years on Working Holidays.  I’ve also spent 3 weeks in Egypt and over 6 weeks in South America.  I’ve travelled on my own to Asia and then jumped on an Intrepid Cambodia tour.  I have also done a 28 day Topdeck Camping trip around Europe and travelled independently using Eurail passes and the Eurostar. Along with many other exciting adventures!

My partner Duncan and I have two children, a son 10 and daughter 9.  We have been on family holidays to Bali and Fiji, staying at Plantation Island and the Naviti on the Coral Coast.  Duncan and I also experienced a Viking ocean cruise (adults only) and absolutely loved it! I have just returned from visiting Darwin, Litchfield and Kakadu National Parks in the Northern Territory, taking the Ghan from Darwin to Adelaide.  I was very fortunate to take a scenic flight over Uluru and Kata Tjuta – just breathtaking!

We live locally in the Papamoa Hills and own a lifestyle block. We love the outdoors and taking advantage of the many wonderful things on offer here in the Tauranga area.  

I’d love to help you plan your next trip and look forward to hearing from you.

Always with a smile I will be just as excited and passionate about your future adventures as you are! Originally from the UK I've spent the last 10 years travelling around the globe before finally settling in heavenly New Zealand.

Here I've turned the joy of travel into a profession I love. I enjoy nature, the beach, spending time with loved ones and exploring new places especially on the open road or by cruise.

I believe the biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams!

To me, traveling is so much more than a simple trip or relaxing vacation; it is a journey that always leaves me transformed and forever changed by the experiences presented. I have had the pleasure of visiting too many countries to count from backpacking on a shoestring budget around Asia to going all out on a private luxury adventure filled holidays such as trekking Machu Pichu! 

My firsthand recommendations will ensure that your destination choices, no matter how uncommon, are always extraordinary. No matter what you are looking for, whether it’s a bucket list adventure or something that completely takes you off the grid, you can count on me to open doors to the most exceptional experiences and enhance every travel adventure.
