I've watched this and all of your other Cook Island Vlogs with my Mum a few times now (we are descedants from Aitutaki & Rarotonga) and she LOVED them! Thank you :)
Oh, so glad that you guys enjoy our Cook Islands videos!! We will be back someday to explore more of the nation - it was a very enjoyable experience! Have you been back to Aitutaki/Rarotonga lately? Thank you for watching!
Just found your video ! I'm thinking of doing the day tour from Raro to Aitutaki and the cruise is included in the tour. Definitely on my list of things to do now 😊
Even when it is raining, the lagoon still look beautiful as ever! I love that Pacific Island version of Old McDonald sounds so much better than the original one. Thanks for sharing the experience.
We've done some research and have a good idea but I love reading your vlog and watching your videos. I live in Atlanta too. I look forward to keeping up with the RTW guys' travels!
Absolutely! We are still doing Oslo vlogs now, and hopefully will be back to South Pacific sooner than later! Enjoy Cook Islands - don't forget the coconut bread, and spend sometime in Aitutaki!
We used to go to the Cook Islands in the 1990s and 2000s. I think I’ve been there 7 or 8 times. Such a beautiful spot I need to check out your other videos
Oh wow you've been there so many times. I've been only once and I love it - can't wait to explore more of Cook Islands and other Southern Polynesian islands soon! I only been to Easter Island and Cook Islands in the Polynesian and absolutely love it.
Had a great friend name Mi'i Tekopua frm this island. He passed on areddy but his legacy shall continue because these island n it's ppl r just so sweet n beautiful like him. RIP Mi'i n Kia Orana 2 u n ur ppl.
Ali Maao If you don't mind I am trying to get a short video done in Aitutaki for a small project. If you know anyone in Aitutaki that can shoot basic video please let me know. Thanks. Julian
Hi, quick question. How do you find people to drive you around on the island? I'm assuming there is no uber or lift. Sorry if that's a stupid question lol
Not at all! My Airbnb offered me a scooter to drive around, so thats how I got around 😀 Speaking of which, see our other video on the scooter drivers license as well to learn more about it.

Hi Steve: For this video, I used a GoPro Hero 6, a DJI Mavic Pro drone, and a Sony RX110-IV camera. If you're interested in the specs, you can see all of our camera equipment in the video description. 📸 😀
What day did u do the aitutaki day trip please? We r going later this year and really want our passports stamped at one foot island. Hoping it’s not closed like it was for u 😩
Hey Maria - I was on One Foot Island on a Monday. I believe it is a random coincidence that the post office was closed during my visit, however, Vaka Cruise has a different novelty stamp for the island. If the post office is open during your visit, you may actually receive two different stamps if you ask for it! Good luck!
I was riding a scooter around. It is sort of the only way to get to places in Aitutaki - unless you are staying in a resort that offers transportation around the island.
Hey guys always wanted to go to Cook islands, this is one of the best videos on RUclips about the place! Great footage guys really well done. Found this really informative. We have newly subbed to you. Looking forward to checking out your other videos too. If you have a minute please check out our food and travel channel too :)
I’m seeing this 5 years later, I miss home so much. Thanks for sharing! Hope you enjoyed it.
I did, hope to be back someday 😊
Wow watching your video...my wife and I have just come back from that tour 2weeks ago... special place in my memories...lol even Ali maao...lol.
That is awesome! Ali is a legend of Aitutaki 😂

I highly recommend a trip to Atiu. It’s a small island and you’ll feel like you have the island to yourself Very beautiful
Lagoon Cruise definitely no. 1 thing to do in Aitutaki!
For sure!!
Another good video. Definitely be booking a cruise trip next time visiting in Aitutaki
Awesome! Aitutaki is definitely one of the most beautiful spots on earth! You will need to do the lagoon cruise for sure :)
This is my home country
One of the most beautiful islands I've ever visited!
Wooooowwww fantastic
Thank you 😀

@@theRTWguys Thank you!!
Amazing! Which one is the best month to go there? 😊
I went in April and it was a bit rainy - I'd say May or June would be perfect!
hey i did the vaka cruise too !!!!
One of the best experiences I've ever done! Was it a better day than mine?
was a bit cloudy and very windy :(
Sorry. I guess it rains in paradise, too. Mine was a rainy day.
I guess it rains in paradise, too. ....very well said !
As of 6/25/19, $500 per person 45 minute flight from Rarotonga. We didn’t do it this time due to the rain conditions at the time. Next time...
Yes absolutely! That's a great reason to come back someday :)
Thanks for watching!
Awesome videos. How many cameras did you use to create this?
Hi Steve: For this video, I used a GoPro Hero 6, a DJI Mavic Pro drone, and a Sony RX110-IV camera. If you're interested in the specs, you can see all of our camera equipment in the video description. 📸 😀
Omg it’s Nga..
😀
Nice
Thank you!
Amezing... When did you go? Which months?
Thank you! I went on April 2016!

Maria Cal it’s never closed it’s always open when the cruises there bc they provide food and drinks also merchandise
George dont like my dad....great video broo...
Ha! Thank you man.
Why George didn't like your dad? Is he even still around?
What did the island cruise cost?
About $125 NZD. You can book it here: www.thevakacruise.com/book-the-cruise/
Thumbs up for the LDS church!
Mormons, Represent! :-)
Were headed to Aitutaki in month, can't wait to be there! How did you get around? Taxi? Bikes? Scooters?
I was riding a scooter around. It is sort of the only way to get to places in Aitutaki - unless you are staying in a resort that offers transportation around the island.
Omg is Ali da Vaka van driver..
Hahaha do you know him? What a small world!!
Wait, you expected motorbikes and scooters to have seat belts? I know you know they don't. That was kind of an odd thing to say.
That would be weird 😂
