Program Reviews

My time in Fiji exceeded my expectations. I had no idea what I was getting myself into, but I was confident I would love the journey. Meeting new people and traveling to a faraway location will be nerve-racking at first, but once you get over that hurdle, things will get easier. I loved every minute of village life; it gave me a completely different perspective on life, and I wish I could do it all again. Making long-lasting friendships with the volunteers and Fijians while also having an important impact on the village.

My Think Pacific expedition will be something that I will never forget. Not only was the impact on the village so big but the impact on me as a person. The trip allows you to gain a new family, friends from around the world, life skills and so much more all whilst making a positive impact on others. The support from the Think Pacific team is incredible- from helping you to book flights to daily health checkins in the village. Make sure you take up an opportunity with Think Pacific- you'll regret it if you don't!

Think pacific was not only an incredibly fun experience but an insightful one too. I cannot remmonend this enough to anyone who is looking to learn and immerse themselves into Fijian culture. By living with people from remote villages you get the most authentic experience and meet the most incredible people who will become your family over the month. From trying new foods, speaking a new language and even learning new skills like weaving and cooking it is one of the best things you can do! I hope to go back and visit my family and take part in future projects!

It was a fantastic experience. Joining the Think Pacific Youth Empowerment program was an unforgettable experience. The Fijian community welcomed us with open arms, and the friendships I made were incredible. Sure, there were tough moments—feeling homesick or facing challenges—but that’s what made it so rewarding. It’s not just about doing good; it’s about growing through discomfort. The people, the culture, the memories—I wouldn’t trade them for anything. If you’re ready to push yourself, this is the program for you.

honestly couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. i am so happy i took that step into flying solo. i post tiktoks about it all the time and want people to learn more about fiji. and just love it the way i love the people of soa. yes the staff weren’t the best but they were new so i can’t be too mad. there’s definitely room for improvement but im glad i didn’t leave. shoutout to the staff leli and moisese who did an amazing job being supportive to me and my fijian sister. we needed it real bad

If I’m being honest I have no words to describe what an amazing experience this was. My village Soa, will always be a second home to me. The kindness, hospitality, and the unconditional love I felt in that village will never be forgotten. Thank you think pacific for showing me Fiji. I will never forget Everytime we danced, drank kava, stayed up late and star gazed. The moments we all shared, the jokes I simply can’t get over this amazing experience. I wish it had been a bit longer because I loved it

My Volunteering trip to Fiji with Think Pacific was hands down the best month of my life.

Firstly from signing up with the company to arriving in Fiji I found them to be absolutely amazing. There was so much information available and they were always happy to help with any little query you had!

Then from arriving the trip was planned perfectly and I had the most amazing time from the moment I met my group to the day we left the village.

I took part in the youth empowerment project and it felt like a really worth whole project. There is a guidelines for all the workshops when planning making sure you get the key information across in each workshop. The workshops themselves were also on extremely important topics that every youth in the village could relate to. This helped make the work we were doing feel that bit more special! The culture course was also fantastic run by volunteers from the village, it really allowed you to learn the ways of Fijian culture helping you understand what it really is like for them.

Living with a family in the village was absolutely incredible. They really became my support in there and they couldn’t have cared for me and my fellow volunteers better.

Couldn’t recommend volunteering with Think Pacific enough, it will change your life!

It really is an experience you have to have! It is an incredible privilege to join such a kind and open community. The love and fun you share in this community is just incredible! I learnt so much every day in the workshops and cultural courses. I not only made new friends from Europe, but also from Fiji. And the best thing is that after the project you have a second real family on the other side of the world! It was the best thing in my life and I have already planned my trip to visit my second family next summer.
PS: The food and culture are elite and almost unbeatable.

My month in Fiji was so amazing this review won’t even scratch the surface of my experience. The Think Pacific team and community are so welcoming and really helped make my experience in Fiji. I couldn’t have done it without them. My project leaders were so amazing and the sense of community and safety I felt in Fiji is incomparable. The amount of love I felt from complete strangers is something I will cherish for the rest of my life. I wish I could go back and do it again. I honestly couldn’t recommend this enough genuinely!

I had the opportunity to live in Naocobau located right on the coast of Fiji, it was gorgeous. As a group no one had a single bad thing to say about the whole project and if we didn't have to go I would still be there now. TP taught me valuable skills and helped me to be comfortable in presenting, aided through the workshops we were delivering. I cannot recommend this experience enough as it was honestly the best month of my life. The people I met from the project are now lifelong friends, and even in direct contact with a lot of the friends I made form the village
