A readable and interesting guide

Reviewed on November 06, 2017
Paperback | Verified

This 304-page book - the 3rd printed edition of November 2017 - is an interesting and readable (the two are not always found together) guide to the South Pacific archipelago of Fiji.

Unlike many guides, this is not a glossy booklet dotted with colourful photographs to make it look superficially attractive, but a (literally) rough guide in terms of comparative paper finishes, but well-designed and presented, with readable text, useful maps, and (well-chosen) photographs only where space allows. The excellent design and layout means that you don’t need unnecessary spot illustrations to break up column after column of small-printed data.

P004: Introduction (Where to go, when to go, what to see etc.)
P022: Basics (travel, transport, accommodation, eating & drinking, and other important stuff for visitors – “travel essentials”, culture and etiquette, travelling with children, health, etc.)

The Guide (with mini-listings contained within each section)
P048: Nadi & around
P072: The Mamanucas & Yasawa Islands
P102: Rural Viti Levu
P132: Suva & around
P150: Beqa, Vatuele, & Kadavu
P164: Lomaiviti & Lau
P184: Vanua Levu & Taveuni
