Getting to Tokelau, the most remote country on earth | Tokelau stories part 1

Getting to Tokelau is not easy, the country doesn't have an airport so you have to jump through a few hoops to get there. In this video Sam and Andrew travel from New Caledonia through Apia, Samoa to the country of Tokelau, one of the smallest, most remote and most special countries on earth. Unless you like 60 hour boat rides and the fast and the furious 6, then this vid is probably the best way to experience what we went through to get to this amazing country. Why do it yourself when we edited it all down into a 7 minute clip?

This is the first part of a series of videos showing how to get to Tokelau, the popping and fly fishing there, and what life is like on the island.

If you like it, let us know and we'll film more videos like this from other amazing places in the Pacific.
