    I started going to Fiji in 1975...stayed with Families in rural areas. Back then, they ploughed with Oxen and washed clothes in the river. Probably had over 20 trips there since then, but only to Viti Levu. I always wondered about Vanua Levu. Thanks.
    I love Fiji and the people, they are very warm people...I hope to go back someday.

    Thanking you so much Andrew for the beautiful tour of Labasa and Savusavu in Fiji. Seriously Andrew and the world, I never had thought Fiji outback is that beautiful.
    I had thought Fiji is all about Suva, Nandi, Lautoka and just into the main towns but here it is, Andrew has done a great service to expose Fiji to the world; a service Fiji tourism authorities should have done many years ago.
    This is true Fiji. Thanking to you Andrew so much!

      Yes that's true 👍, I'm from the main island but I still never been this place. Savusavu is the paradise of Fiji. This is the most beautiful place in Fiji because every mix blood of Fiji like Samoan, German, Fiji and so many others still living there until today. This is the place that Fiji connect to the world with all different blood comes together. God bless my Savusavu Fiji.

    Mate, really enjoyed your video. Labasa holds a very special place in my heart( birthplace). Last set foot there in 1987. Felt liked I traveled back in time especially around 19:46 - 20:12 mark. Lived at the Police Bks & to see the actual Qtrs that we lived in just brings back good memories as a 80’s kid. Things have changed a lot though, so once again thank you so much, really appreciate your videos & safe travels.

It’s on my bucket list to once again visit Labasa when back in Fiji and visit places like you just did. Hope you’re enjoying your travels mate, oh hopefully if you get the chance you wanna visit Fiji’s old Capital, Levuka Town on the Island of Ovalau.
