Visit the Cook Islands to experience the pristine beauty of the South Pacific. This trip includes time in Rarotonga and Aitutaki, where you can enjoy stunning lagoons and intimate cultural encounters.

Rarotonga is the heartbeat and gateway to the Cook Islands. This compact paradise is just 32km in circumference, has a lush mountainous interior, and is decorated by reefs, beaches, and lagoons. Aside from water activities, you can also enjoy local culture at markets on Saturdays. There are no traffic lights, McDonalds or tall buildings; it really is like stepping back in time to what Hawaii was like long ago. – and uncrowded!

Aitutaki is a mini paradise. It is a short flight from Rarotonga, with a population of approximately 1800 people, and boosts one of the world’s most beautiful lagoons.

Totally secluded, the 15 motus (islets) sprinkled across this turquoise lagoon make this the ultimate romantic escape.
