Travel to New Zealand and select a stopover to Rarotonga (Cook Islands).

Over 100 million years of isolation have helped to create the unique and unspoilt land of New Zealand and now there are countless ways to experience it.

If it is adventure and the great outdoors you're after, look no further than fishing in Taupo, kayaking in the Abel Tasman National park, bungy jumping, jet-boating or a casual round of golf in Queenstown.

Combine New Zealand's adventure playground with some of the country's most unique natural wonders including the Tongariro Crossing, Fiordland's spectacular Milford Sound and Rotorua's geothermal area and experience a once in a lifetime vacation!

Add to your trip, with a stop in beautiful Rarotonga, where authentic island culture and beach paradise allows complete relaxation. With their fifteen idyllic islets spread out over an area roughly the size of India, and a population of only fourteen thousand, there's plenty to soak up in the Cook Islands.

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.

Then fly out to Aitutaki and you'll experience a Pacific vacation unlike any other. You'll step back in time and come back totally rejuvenated.

The lagoon is renowned among international anglers for the quality of fishing. There are shops, businesses and restaurants around the wharf at the main town of Arutanga. And on Friday night everyone, visitors included, gets together for singing and dancing.
