Ride the Rails of Ecotrax Tour
For an unforgettable ride through Fiji with a twist, book in on an Ecotrax Tour in Sigatoka, on the beautiful Coral Coast. A world first, it features side-by-side electric assisted bicycles mounted onto a carriage that runs along the tracks of an old sugar cane tram line. You can use as much, or as little energy as you choose, gently cruising through villages, rock cuttings, mangroves and rainforest, eventually leading to an unspoiled, deserted beach where you can spend an hour swimming and enjoying local fruits and refreshments. Then, slowly return home, past friendly locals and animals along the way. It’s a truly unique experience and suitable for anyone aged one to 100. ecotrax.com.fj
