Cook Islands Tourism has introduced a new travel agent specialist programme, where you can skill up and be rewarded with discount on your next holiday.

As talks of international borders getting closer to opening between Australia and the Cook Islands increase, travel agents are encouraged to become Cook Islands specialists through an all-new online training platform, focused on the two most popular of the 15 islands – Rarotonga and Aitutaki.

The Cook Islands

Deals of the week

Are you craving a little South Pacific paradise in your life right now?

Until you can actually visit, you can travel vicariously through this fun training programme and beautiful content from the Cook Islands.

Picture this, you’ve just landed in Rarotonga and checked into your accommodation. What would you like to do first?

You can be stand-up paddleboarding on the crystal clear lagoon, sipping on your first cocktail or relaxing poolside at your beautiful resort.

How about booking yourself onto an exhilarating 4×4 island tour, setting off on the magical cross island walk or heading to the market for a taste of delicious local cuisine?

Then, after a few days, a week or more, take a scenic flight to one of the other smaller islands to explore the culture and underwater wonderland the Cook Islands has to offer.

No matter where you are or what you want to do, the time is yours to enjoy.
