"If you're going to spend 15 hours in a plane flying halfway around the globe to a tropical wonderland like Fiji, you better be certain to go to places you could never go, do the things you could never do, and leave with the feeling that there's nothing better you could have ever done anywhere else. Such is a trip on the Tui Tai."
- Tim Neville, freelance writer for Outside and Men's Journal magazines

The A/S Tui Tai is a magnificent 140-foot sailing schooner based in Savusavu, Fiji. In the Fijian language, “Tui Tai” means “chief from another place.” The small group focus of the Adventure Cruise means that guests are welcomed with the warmth and respect traditionally given to a chief from another village. In a sense, each guest is a “Tui Tai,” and we are honored by their visit to our floating village.

Adventure Cruises For Everyone: The Tui Tai Adventure Cruise is a unique holiday designed for active travellers looking to get off the beaten path and truly experience Fiji, not just a resort's view of Fiji. The expedition combines tropical adventure and a chance to immerse you in the culture of Fiji. During your adventure you will kayak, mountain bike, hike through rainforests and waterfalls, snorkel pristine, vibrant reefs, scuba dive in a number of world-class dive sites, visit local villages, and more!

A large aft deck provides ample space for lounging while we sail along, as well as a dining table for all meals. A shade cloth covers the deck. The lounge area inside includes table seating areas and a full bar operated by our hostess. Upstairs is our massage parlor where you can enjoy a massage after an active day. Guests are invited to tour the bridge area upstairs and watch the Captain and officers navigate the ship.

All cabins and staterooms on board the Tui Tai are air-conditioned for your comfort. All accommodation offer private bathroom and showers with the best shampoos & soaps, as well as 800-count Egyptioan Cotton Sateen sheets. Towel and linen service is provided daily.  

All meals are designed and prepared by our Chef onboard. Local markets supply many of the fruits, vegetables, spices and fish. Our menu is a wonderful combination of traditional Fijian recipes and ingredients and a blend of international cuisine. If you have any special dietary requirements (vegetarian, food allergies, etc…) please notify one of the crew and they will ensure each meal has plenty of options for you.

Adventure Gear: The ship is equipped with Perception kayaks, Kona mountain bikes, Scubapro dive & snorkel gear, and compressor.

Staff of 16 Fijian officers, sailors, guides and hospitality staff ensure the safety and enjoyment of each guest. Each member of our staff is proud to share their islands with you and provide interpretive guiding and evening storytelling about the history and legends of Fiji.

As part of our adventure activities, we are proud to offer scuba diving. We are a PADI International Resort Dive Boat and our itinerary will give you the chance to dive every day and explore dive sites in many pristine and remote locations.

SCUBAPRO manufactures all of our rental dive equipment on board. Our professional dive guide will answer any of your queries about the equipment, dive sites or any other scuba dive related questions.

During the 5-night Adventure Cruise itinerary, we offer up to 11 dives depending on tide, weather and conditions. Under good conditions each island visited offers dive sites catering to all levels of a scuba diver, from beginner to advanced. The professional dive guide on board will select dive sites based on conditions and the desires of the diving clients, including Great White Wall, Kokoda Point, or Sharkfin Point.

Honeymooners: We provide a complimentary bottle of champagne to guests celebrating their honeymoon. In addition, we will take you to a private beach and serve your dinner there, just the two of you, or you can have one of our crew serenade you. A local village "Meke" will honor honeymoon guests who book the luxury cabin. "Meke" is a traditional Fijian festival of singing and dancing, and the local village will assemble the grand event for you.
