The Cook Islands are a stunning necklace of islands in the sun and are the jewel in the crown of the South Pacific. Culture, tradition, arts and crafts and local hospitality make the Cook Islands come alive!  Rarotonga is the largest of the fifteen islands, with white sand beaches and a high mountainous interior, encircled by a protective reef and lagoon. Enjoy four nights discovering the island, or perhaps, just kick back on the beach and relax! Travel overnight to Sydney.  Visit the Sydney Opera House and enjoy a show or admire the view of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge and the bustling waterfront area.  Wander around the historic Rocks and Circular Quay – an historic precinct complete with art galleries, cafes and a weekend market.

Take a road-trip to the Blue Mountains National Park or the Hunter Valley Wine Region.  Enjoy a day at Sydney’s famous Bondi Beach. You will arrive in Auckland, otherwise known as the ‘City of Sails’ and offers pretty much close to every activity that you could wish for:  from high-speed America’s Cup racing yacht to a casual cruise on the harbor. In Auckland, absorb the area’s history and admire the magnificent traditional Maori carvings that stand guard. Experience Auckland’s unique cultural heritage with the Auckland Maori Tour and hear stories of Maori people, learn about the language and see some of Auckland’s very best sights.
