This experience was great .the driver was very informative learned alot about the cook islands.the lunch was also delicious.saw alot more than we expected

Great lunch home made Scones which were like coconut pie! Great for older ones. Do it first day your stay, island knowledge is my description.

Relaxed personal tour, answered all our questions and we had a lovely time with our guide Mike.

I did a private 4 hour tour, which was money well spent. Mr Bates was my guide, and he couldn't have been better. He asked what I was interested in before we set off, and tailored the drive to my interests -- old buildings and history. He answered all my questions and gave me an insight into the wonderful Cook Islands that I otherwise wouldn't have had. Towards the end of the tour we met up with the group tour and had a delicious and substantial home-cooked snack, or lunch, at a private house.

Had a blast. Recommend to any age

It was good experience going on this. Met some NZers of my age and enjoyed the music and enthusiasm on the bus. Met others from other countries. It was a good opportunity to go to 4 venues with a group of other people.

Loved learning the history of the island from our very knowledgeable guide. A lovely way to get to know more about Rarotonga

We were picked up and meet the lady who would be raiding with us She was very nice and help full in were we would be riding with all the history about the Island the price was worth it .Very enjoyable 1/2 day out with lunch

Great tour. Nat is a great asset to the tour company he works for. He was funny and friendly throughout the tour. He shared some really great knowledge about Rarotonga.

We would recommend to other visitors to the Cook Islands to do the tour.Nat our tour guide was very friendly, and being a local to Rarotonga, he had a wealth of knowledge to share with our group, and he demonstrated his coconut cleaning and opening skills, so that we could taste fresh coconut, yummy!We also enjoyed the lovely light refreshments that was provided!We enjoyed our tour of the island especially in the comfortable and cool mini bus.Thanks Nat and the Raro tours team!

An must do at the start of your holiday if it’s your 1st time on the island.

Great fun. A must do when visiting Rarotonga. Only recommendation is to take a jacket if it is a bit cool as bus is open.

What a great night, so much fun, laughter and lots of dancing. Enjoyed every moment

Corrina has lots of interesting stories, I recommend taking this tour to get a deep context of history, fauna and flora, local tradition, tips on how to enjoy the island (she wrote a book about it, she really is a specialist) and a fun time out.

Great experience with a local who has great knowledge and history of the area. Path wasn't too challenging and I'm mid 40's who is allergic to cross fit activities. Great fun and tasty kai at the end of the tour!!

You have to do the party bus regardless. You go bar hopping! Receive a 1 free cocktail at the first bar, nibbles at the second bar, the other 2 bars you drink & dance.
