FIRST-CLASS | TAILOR-MADE: A travel highlight for most Globetrotters is to mingle and interact with locals. But to actually live amongst them, even for just a short time, is an experience of a life time.
Spend two weeks in one of nature's authentic paradises, the idyllic Cook Islands. Do whatever you want during your time here either relaxing or being active - your choice.
The Cook Islands are one of the best kept secrets in the South Pacific when it comes to a truly natural paradise. Located north east of New Zealand, it consists of 15 islands formed by volcanic activity, each one with its own individual character. The Cook Islanders are extremely friendly people who are smiling, warm-hearted and influenced by their Polynesian culture. Reasons to visit are many but include just relaxing on the pristine white-sand beaches, snorkeling, scuba diving, exploring and learning about the history of the islands. The Cook Islands is where time stands still. There is no sense of urgency here. There are no traffic lights!
On arrival in the Cook Islands, you will be taken to one of our recommended self-contained accommodations for a 12-night relaxing stay. During your time here, you are basically at leisure. A car rental is included to explore the island, take organized excursions or simply swim and take part in any available water sports activities.
