The Journey to Your Accommodation
Most travelers head toward the Sunset Strip along the Coral Coast, with destinations including the Outrigger Fiji Beach Resort or Bedarra Inn. The transfer duration is roughly one hour, depending on traffic and your specific hotel location. Your driver is typically local and knowledgeable, often offering handy tips or recommendations about Fiji along the way.
A notable feature of this transfer is the stopover option. Whether you need to visit an ATM, pick up snacks, or buy supplies at a supermarket or bottle shop, your driver can accommodate this without extra charges. Many reviewers mention the usefulness of stopping at a supermarket with a good bakery, a wide selection of goods, and a decent stock of beer and wine—especially helpful for late arrivals or if you want some refreshments before reaching your resort.
The Reliability and Customer Service
Customer service can make or break a transfer experience, and here’s where reviews are mixed. Some travelers praise the friendly and helpful drivers, with comments like “we have used GoLocalFiji twice now and have found their service great—friendly, well priced, and punctual.” Others, however, mention a less favorable experience, especially on the return trip, describing it as “terrible” or “the worst experience of my holiday.”
What’s consistent is that the company is attentive to delays—your driver will wait if your flight is delayed, often at no extra cost. When things go smoothly, the service feels personalized, with drivers eager to share tips about Fiji and assist with luggage. The training of staff and full insurance on vehicles add a layer of security, reassuring travelers that safety is prioritized.
Pricing and Value
At $80.57 per group (up to 2 people), this transfer is quite competitive, especially considering it’s private, not shared. Compared to other options, which can be more expensive or less flexible, this service offers decent value—particularly for couples or small families wanting a hassle-free start to their holiday.
The inclusion of stops and the flexibility to change dates without extra charges increase the perceived value. You’re paying for convenience, comfort, and peace of mind, which some travelers find worth the investment.
However, the mixed reviews remind us that the experience may not always meet expectations—some drivers may not be as friendly or punctual as others, so managing expectations is wise.

It’s perfect for travelers arriving late or with early departures, thanks to the 24/7 availability and flexible scheduling. Small groups or couples will find it affordable and convenient, especially with the option to include stops along the way.
