STUFF YOU SHOULD KNOW

  • All prices are per person. Double/twin/triple/quad rates are per person, booking and sharing the same room/bure and all bookings must be for 10 people or more.

  • As most voluntourists choose to stay and travel around Fiji for a period before or after their voluntourism program, they should all enter the country on a 'Visitor/Tourist Visa' which can be obtained for a period of up to 3 months. There is currently no specific visa for volunteers in Fiji and as volunteering is NOT considered work under Fiji's immigration requirements, you do not need a work visa. 

  • Itineraries can be custom-built to include your choice of volunteer categories.

  • If for whatever reason the hotels/resorts included in this package are unavailable at the time of booking, then an alternative hotel/resort of the same standard will be provided.

  • The compulsory donation amount that is added to your package rate helps to purchase and source materials to support Vinaka Fiji. These include tools, equipment, agricultural suppliers like seedlings and chicks, materials for construction, water tanks, school books, and learning aids. 

  • Bed linen is provided however you will need to bring all other linen including towels and toiletries. A laundry service is available for a small fee.

  • To participate in the Children, Schools, and Education package you must have a Police Clearance Check or 'Working with Children' check from your country of residence. Copies must be provided along with your completed Registration Form at least two weeks prior to commencement on the program
