Giorno 2 — Sydney
Arrive at Sydney. The most Australian of Australian cities, with its surroundings, is a true microcosm of the country. Sydney is the only city in Australia to have a tangible sense of history in the Rocks neighborhood, a unique city that goes beyond the wonderful bay, but reveals its true soul in the neighborhoods and beaches of the suburbs, with a cosmopolitan and sophisticated population and the highest number of Aboriginal people.

Giorno 5 — Sydney → Rarotonga
Flight to Rarotonga. In the heart of the Pacific Ocean, the Cook Islands, or New Zealand Polynesia, are one of the last unspoilt paradises on Earth. The Cook Islands will captivate you and offer you a unique location for an unforgettable trip. These islands offer the perfect blend of Polynesian culture and scenic beauty. From pristine coral beaches and sparkling blue waters, effervescent sunsets that light up the evening sky, to the gentle caress of the trade winds rising over the palm trees that line the transparent lagoons, the Cook Islands embody everything you could imagine a tropical paradise to be. Add to this the charm of the locals - some of the friendliest and most hospitable people in the world - for an unforgettable holiday in one of the most romantic and remote places on earth.
Rarotonga is the hub of the Cook Islands. It has so much to see and do, yet remains unspoilt. There are no traffic lights, no McDonald's and no buildings taller than the tallest coconut tree. A circular island with a scenic road running around its entire perimeter, with a majestic volcanic peak on one side and the crystal-clear turquoise waters of its lagoon on the other. A true tropical paradise.

It is an unmissable destination in the Cook Islands. It has an irresistible charm for honeymooners, many of whom choose this paradise for their entire stay.

Giorno 12 — Aitutaki → Auckland
I arrive at Auckland. The 'City of Sails' is not the state capital (which is Wellington instead), but with around one million inhabitants, of which at least two hundred thousand are of Polynesian origin, it contains one third of the entire New Zealand population. It is the largest city in New Zealand, located on the North Island. The city is known for its spectacular landscapes, with dormant volcanoes, breathtaking beaches and natural parks. Auckland is also an important urban and cultural centre, with a vibrant arts scene, fine restaurants and a variety of outdoor activities. The Sky Tower, an iconic 328-metre-high structure, dominates the cityscape and offers panoramic views of the city and beyond.

Giorno 15 — Auckland → Dubai
Arrive at Dubai. One adjective is enough to describe Dubai: exaggerated. From the 800-metre-high skyscrapers to the shopping malls with more than 600 shops, from the 7-star hotels to the artificial slopes where you can ski even at 40 degrees, practically nothing is an exception. Dubai is a cosmopolitan and multicultural city located in the United Arab Emirates on the south-east coast of the Persian Gulf. The city is famous for its modern and innovative architecture, a number of public artworks, including the Dubai Fountain, the largest musical fountain in the world, and the artificial palm tree of Palm Jumeirah, one of the largest artificial islands in the world. The city also has a strong food culture and is home to many fine restaurants serving international cuisines. Despite its modernity, Dubai also has a strong cultural identity. The city is home to numerous museums, such as the Dubai Museum and the Women's Museum, which present the history and culture of the United Arab Emirates. Famous is the traditional Souk in Deira, a traditional market where one can find textiles, spices and other traditional goods.
