Went to the Cooks for the first time in May. Really enjoyed ourselves. Will now make it a regular get away in the future. Temps were good and not too hot. Stayed at Moana Sands Villas which was great.
Great list. We just got back earlier this week from an incredible two weeks in Raro. This video gave me some great ideas for next time as there were a few things we didn’t get around to! Also some pretty good snorkelling out front of the Rarotongan Resort. Highland Paradise does a great island night experience and Raro Safari Tour was a good way to get a bit of a tour around the inner ring road and learn more about the local history. I thought Snorkel Cook Islands was a great option for seeing the turtles and they have a great safety record (zero drownings) that some of the other companies don’t! Thanks for sharing 😁
Glad you guys had a good time, two weeks is pure island bliss by the end surely! You'd be zen as. Thanks for the other tips here for us next time and others reading these comments!
Thanks guys for sharing your tips. Can't wait the watch your cool videos from Rarotonga! I love your channel. Glad you can travel. Stay safe and have fun. Cheers 🧔
i love Cook islands so much , I just got back this Monday, I spend 5 days In Aitutaki and 7 days in Aitutaki managed Isolation facility hahahah what a epic trip
Harriet and I have been to Rarotonga and enjoyed our time there. So many great memories, the people, the calm atmosphere. It wasn't overrun by tourists. Can't wait to see your next videos, some of those great memories. Also, we can't wait to see some great pics coming of Nalu. Be Well my friends. Sending you lots of love💖💖 Harriet, Jim and Yuki. Richmond. Va.
Wauw looks absoluut Breathtaking gorgeous island 🥰 Can not wait for your series to start😜 Hope your Both doing well ,how Nalu doing 🤔🥰 Have a Great weekend
Epic Video🙌 I myself live in Rarotonga and it’s been an honor to see such amazing Vlogs about this beautiful paradise, literally a stunning island😍🌴 Can’t wait for y’all to do a holiday trip to Beautiful blue lagoon Aitutaki, definitely earths Majestic Wonder. Kia Orana and Kia Manuia. CHEEEEEHOOOOOO!!
@@DanegerAndStacey looking forward to more of your vlogs😃 hope your stay here in the Cookislands is a memorable one. Cheers to a taste of a little paradise🍻🌴 & Love a little Paradise.
👍 Great job on this video. I didn't expect it to be that good. I also really liked the insight, the editing, and pretty much everything else. Thank you 👋
This is really helpful. I am going with family in 4 weeks time!!! I'm super nervous and excited... I'm nervous about the food as I'm a very fussy eater and not usually one to try new foods. Hopefully this will change my habit in that sense! So looking forward to it and we arrive in whale season too! That was totally not planned but pefect as I've always wanted to see a whale in person. I love marine life.
wow, so much to fit into that video! Must have been a hard edit haha. Raro and Aitutaki, my 2nd home. Back in 2 weeks for my 9th time so am tempted to do the progressive dinner and buggy rides. Already booked for the turtle swim and a stay at Matariki beach huts in Aitutaki. Very off the grid! Cant wait to see your next vid!
Yup, these ones are always time consuming with the amount of footage to pull and essentially typing out a 10-15 minute script as well! 9th visit? Damn, we should have asked you for advice haha!
Hello guys! Love your content, watched almost all of it. I was wondering if you guys knew about ( or if it is a problem on my end) the fact that your Scotland playlist does not show up in your playlists (EU playlists nor all playlists) unless you search for it specifically ? Are there more playlists like that? Might be a settings that is missing or wrong, or it might be on my end, but it is missing in both my Edge, Firefox and my cell phone so sort of doubt it. Is it intentional or? Side note, at what time(month) were you filming your bike and whine tour in Queenstown ? That looked so amazing!
I'm so pleased for you guys being able to travel further afield again! Rarotonga looks like absolute paradise and I wish it wasn't so far away!!! I look forward to watching the next 6 episodes as I get to see more of this stuff in more depth! 🙏
Thank you so very much for the wonderful video of the Islands I love. Bought back a lot of memories. And a small tear to my eyes. Look forward to the rest of your trip videos. Thank you.
Yeah I first went about 10 years ago and in some ways lots has changed (more tours, activities and food/cafes) but in a lot of ways it's still just the beautiful, calm, relaxed place you remember! Win-win.
I'm already relaxed! 🥰 Moving to the opposite side of the world from NZ definitely puts this kind of stuff out of reach for now. You two are making us crazy homesick with all this content!
I get so excited when you guys bring out a new video!! I cant't wait to go to Rarotonga one day! Sure am writing some tips and tricks down :) cant wait for this series!!
I'm going for 7 days.... and I'm hiring Two fishing boats on two separate islands 🤣 you guys missed the best part. Haha but yea I can't wait to do some snorkeling over there too and eat a lot of ika mata
Luckily the tourism team on the ground gave us DJI codes to unlock the drone to share with everyone here... but, lots of people just reckless flying 🤷🏼♂️
Wow! Been wanting to go to the Cook Islands since you guys was first there! Aiming to go next year when I’m over in Aus and NZ so this series gunna make me a lot more excited for it!

Kia orana, hope you enjoyed it in Raro. Loved the video. Makes me miss home, haven't been back in a while. Think it's time to plan a trip back! Hehe

Great video. I visited there in the 80's, and it seems to have grown with more large resorts.
Yes it has changed a lot since then no doubt!
this is one of the best videos on my home island (well one of them). Very informative!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Going in November! Can’t wait
You're going to love it!

Our pleasure! Thanks for traveling with us vicariously
Outstanding again!! I am getting some pretty strong Cook Island wedding vibes. Maybe?

Paradise isn't it?
Nice video
YaY, so happy to see you in your natural state- traveling abroad! ;)

Thank you so very much for the wonderful video of the Islands I love. Bought back a lot of memories. And a small tear to my eyes. Look forward to the rest of your trip videos. Thank you.
SO HAPPY we can help you relive some of those memories!
great video thank you!
Glad you liked it!
The BCI Vaka ATM in town has zero fees on NZ card cash withdrawals.
NICE! Great info to share, thanks for that
We were last there 8 years ago. Looks like a lot more on offer now and worth another visit!
Yeah I first went about 10 years ago and in some ways lots has changed (more tours, activities and food/cafes) but in a lot of ways it's still just the beautiful, calm, relaxed place you remember! Win-win.
Been to Raro many a time and still feel the need to go back! Stunning video, bring on the series 😊🌞
Agree - there is SO much to do, or nothing, it;s the perfect balance
thank you for sharing, love seeing your guys travels. Cant wait for your next episode about aitutaki too😊
Yeow! First one just went live
Best thing to do ,is go to Aitutaki 😊👍
Sorry for the delay, we've been exploring South America! Yup, agree, it's a stunner!
I'm already relaxed! 🥰 Moving to the opposite side of the world from NZ definitely puts this kind of stuff out of reach for now. You two are making us crazy homesick with all this content!
Aww homesickness sucks, but how cool we live in this digital world where you can actually see and experience it (in a way..)
We stayed at the edge water and it was good resort
Yeah nice, we met some people that stayed there and said they loved it too
I get so excited when you guys bring out a new video!! I cant't wait to go to Rarotonga one day! Sure am writing some tips and tricks down :) cant wait for this series!!
YAY! The next vid just went up :)
I'm going for 7 days.... and I'm hiring Two fishing boats on two separate islands 🤣 you guys missed the best part. Haha but yea I can't wait to do some snorkeling over there too and eat a lot of ika mata
That sounds awesome! You'll be getting a lot of sashimi as well if you're out in the water - nice!
@@DanegerAndStacey that's the plan!!!
how did you guys get a drone permit as im going next year and really wanna fly :)
Luckily the tourism team on the ground gave us DJI codes to unlock the drone to share with everyone here... but, lots of people just reckless flying 🤷🏼♂️
Excelent video \o/
Thank you!
Wow! Been wanting to go to the Cook Islands since you guys was first there! Aiming to go next year when I’m over in Aus and NZ so this series gunna make me a lot more excited for it!
You should! We think this series will help more than the last even, so much more to share!
Nice video. Regards from Malaysian utuber
I’d love to try the progressive dinner you’ve shared. Would you have details to contact please?
Hey we have it linked in the video description below.
Is there a entrance visa needed ? Online or local on arrival ? From Europe 💜🍀🙏🏻
Not sure about from Europe sorry, for Kiwis there's nothing required so we havent had to check
What time of year did you go?
AMAAAZING! "Stacey voice"
😂 love that she's got her own catch phrase!
How good does the water looooookkkkk...
When that sun is shining on it, it's insane
I love the Cook Islands and can’t wait to go back I’m hoping to take my girlfriend there within the year
It's getting so much easier to visit with less restrictions either side too, hope you guys get there soon!
Well I'm interested
Beautiful coral ,good food, and friendly people in Cooks 🏝 Islands.
Greetings from beautiful tropical Hawaii islands.
Did u have to take a covid test travelling in and out of cooks?
NOPE! Not needed anymore to go to or back to NZ!
@@DanegerAndStacey thanks! I keep finding old info
Sorry to hear of the recent passing away of Jack Cooper from Trader Jacks last week on Thursday. May he RIP.
Awww RIP, we didn't know that!
Well I am here because it's my Antipode according to google earth
Watching your videos is so dangerous to my wallet 🤣 I just want to hop a plane and go!
Oh no! You'll have nothing left if you let that happen
Also… you can’t buy booze on a Sunday, so stock up!
