Sharing the love: Cook Islands Tourism CEO

  • Summary

  • WHAT IS IT THAT MAKES THE COOK ISLANDS SO SPECIAL? Karla Eggelton definitely knows because she’s lived there all her life and is uniquely placed to tell us as she’s Chief Executive of tourism. In this episode, she gives us a unique insight into the capital island of Rarotonga, its next most visited neighbour, the stunningly beautiful Aitutaki and some of the 13 other islands which make up this Polynesian paradise in the South Pacific. Among them are some of the most remote and unspoiled places on the planet.

    Karla explains how new flights are making the Cook Islands easier to get to. She also talks passionately of Cook Islands cultural values, including protecting the environment, caring for each other and how Islanders want to share a love of their homeland with the world. Get some tourist tips too in her answers to a fun quick fire quiz.

    This is a must listen if you're thinking about a visit to the Cook Islands or just want to know more about a uniquely special little paradise.
