In case you are searching for a fascinating holiday destination that is far more extravagant than the rest of regular places, take a look at the Rarotonga in the Cook Islands!

I think it is due to the fact that that New Zealand and Australian people like to keep this tour destination a secret from travelers of other countries. Hahaha…I am joking :)! One thing that I noticed is, there are very less amount of people from India who visit there.
No doubt it is like some kind of an expedition with its beyond the black stump area in the South Pacific, but if you are from the USA, the New Zealand government has begun direct 9 hour flights flying from LA, thus you can actually wake up in heaven after your air travel!
