With their fifteen idyllic islets spread out over an area roughly the size of India, and a population of only fourteen thousand, there's a lot of paradise to go round in the Cook Islands.

A Cook Islands vacation offers a mix of vibrant, authentic island culture, opportunities for action and adventure, hiking, pony trekking, cultural tours, water sports of every kind - and a real commitment to the joys of relaxing.

Spend some time in Rarotonga which has a craggy, tropical jungle-covered volcanic heart. If you're interested in abundant, exotic flora and fauna take a guided trek into the interior.

Next stop, Sydney! Let the iconic landmarks of the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge guide you around this dazzling harbour city. Between the historic Rocks area, the many white sandy beaches, the legendary shopping and the busy Arts calendar, Sydney is a city you could never grow bored in. It's easy to get around by train, bus, ferry or car, and the accommodation and dining options are endless. Come on down!
