You will live for seven days in a Fijian environment on a spectacular island, learning the Fijian way of life in an eco-tourism project. Play a part in a 21st century sustainable community, building local and global awareness of our impact on the planet through the realisation that even on a tropical island every action has an environmental consequence well beyond the beach. During your week on the island you will be embracing and celebrating the local Fijian culture and traditions, whilst helping Vorovoro become a unique focal point for responsible tourism in the region. A truly unique and rewarding experience!

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
