Need travel agent for South Pacific trip
 
Could anyone recommend a travel agent who specializes in ultra luxurious properties in Fiji or French Polynesia? It does not matter to me where they are located; I just want to find a knowledgeable agent who understands the BEST!!!

Contact: Swain Travel, located in suburbs of Phila, Pa. Sorry I don't have their website available, but a search will locate them for you.

They are specialists in Australia, New Zealand and all of the Pacific. Review what is on their site, but they most definitely can pull together an itinerary to your liking at any price point and definitely "luxury"

One of the largest (probably the largest) French Polynesia specialists is Travelnet (they've also recently expanded to cover Fiji). Their French Polynesia website is:

Their Fiji website is:

http://www.fiji-explorer.com/

(or you can find a link to it from the Tahiti site).

South Pacific Holidays (at least they were for Fiji), we booked Turtle Island & Namale though them but for Vatulele I did my own booking. Fiji Reservations send their agents on location continously so they should have the latest information which is critical since resorts can vary from time to time. Knowing where you want to go is the first prerequisite, there are only so many TOP places if that is what you are looking for so it shouldn't be that hard.

Try fijiislandstravel.com. Email the lovely Margaret or Tom (her husband) and tell them exactly what you want. They are Fijian locals with several years experience in Fiji. We have used them for the best and sometimes the budget resorts and their input, service above expectations and kindness is incomparable. Best of luck.

A very unflattering review of Swain Travel at above web site. Has anyone had problems?
