Classic'/>Rarotonga
Fly into a world of vivid colour, tropical sunshine, glorious beaches, coral reefs and crescent-shaped, aquamarine lagoons. Rarotonga is the gateway to the fabled Cook Islands. Only a mere 20 miles in circumference you could easily cycle around Rarotonga – or even more easily take a bus or scooter – and discover tiny fishing villages and forgotten beaches strung together like pearls by a single thread-like road. Or you could head inland towards the mighty central mountains – and find yourself winding through deep green rainforest and plantations of taro, pawpaw and banana.
Stay: Six nights at the prestigious Nautilus Resort.
Aitutaki
Just an hour away lies another tiny drop of South Sea perfection. Turbulent volcanic action threw up an island of unsurpassed beauty and tranquillity, creating in its wake a breath-taking lagoon edged by an idyllic beach. This is the ultimate place for romance – or to simply unwind on soft sand, the sound of lapping waves and whispering palms in your ears, and wish that life could always be this way. Especially as you’ll be staying in one of the most luxurious resorts in the whole of the Cook Islands.
Stay: Six nights in a beachfront villa at the
Aitutaki Escape.
Cook Islands - Home
Alas, today you leave the Cook Islands and fly back home.
Although we bothered Lydia on several occasions over small matters, she was always patient and very helpful. The whole organisation from Heathrow and back was seamless and first class. Game watching on this trip surpassed all that we had seen before in the one trip. Our thanks to Ultimate yet again
