Activities

 

    Any travel agent can issue a ticket or book a cruise . . .
    We create Travel Experiences . . . that extra effort is our hallmark!

The main town on Aitutaki is Arutanga and here there is a market, post office, police station, an information center and a church.   You can get around the island on a motor scooter, bicycle or 4WD vehicle or be shown around by a tour company. Besides exploring Arutanga, you can visit the other small towns of Amuri, Ureia, Reureu and Nikaupara, visit a marae, go swimming, snorkeling, hiking, diving, fishing, picnicking or go on a lagoon cruise to One-Foot Island.  In the evening a must do is to go to Samade's for dinner and watch the famous dancers of the Cook Islands.

Like all Cook Island towns, the church is the focal point.

The Cook Islands have beautiful stamps that you can buy.

One of the highlights and a must do when you are on Aitutaki is to take a day cruise to One-Foot Island (Tapuaetai) (left) on Paradise Islands Lagoon Cruise.  

On the cruise you are taught how to open coconuts and how to make plates and dishes out of palm fronds.

Only on Aitutaki can you meet a bishop and a queen!   This is Bishop Paul and Queen Manarangi Tutai. Paul owns a touring company and can take you around his island.
