The Cook Islands represent true paradise and are a must for any traveller, particularly those on the many available unlimited stop over tickets from Sydney to LA.
There are very few places in the world where initially you do not wish to do anything but sit and soak up the atmosphere. This is one of them. However once settled in this guide is invaluable.
Purchased in Sydney I used the flights via NZ and Fiji to flick through the guide and familiarise myself with the locality and the detailed associated history.
Once safely located in accomodation recommended and accurately described by LP I used the guide to maximise my short stay on Raratonga.
From advice on obtaining a driving license to the "must do" cross island walk, the LP guide was without fault.
The many island nights and dive companies are well researched. Diving in the Cook Islands is well recommended but the PADI accreditation is sometimes abused. Therefore any advice and recent research is more than welcome. The LP guide was accurate & up to date, even to the point of providing names for initial introductions.
A must for any visitor and a guide that you will hang on to for the many future visits that either you or your friends are sure to make having experiencing this amazing part of the world.

A must have guide for a must visit place. Impressively thorough with vital information without denying the traveller the opportunity of discovery even on these small islands. Follow the advice that Aitutaki has to be visited.
