“This was an amazing tour!!!! Well worth the money and then some! Our guide, Javier’s Hucke, was extremely knowledgeable and patient, taking time to translate the tour for both English and Spanish speakers and ensuring all of our questions were thoroughly answered. She provided so much insight into the rich culture and history of the island, and particularly the Moai statues. I learned so much that I never knew about them!! Since the majority of the island is a national park with stops that require a guide, it is most efficient and well worth the money to book a tour like this one. I also rented a motorcycle and spent…”

Review of Rapa Nui’s six-hour tour from Hanga Roa, covering caves, volcanoes, Moai sites, costs, guides, park fees, and practical tips.

“Es war eine interessante Tour über die Insel. Wir haben viel von der Insel gesehen. Allein den Guide Roberto fand ich wenig empathisch. Wir waren eine gemischte Gruppe, bestehend aus spanischsprechenden und englischsprechenden Touristen. Auf Grund meiner Bitte, einen Vortrag in englisch zu wiederholen, schnauzte er mich an, dass er wüsste, wie er seinen Job zu tun habe. Ich bin 70 Jahre alt und muss mir eine solche Behandlung von einem wesentlich jüngeren Mann eigentlich nicht gefallen lassen. Quintessenz: Es gibt kein Trinkgeld!”

Explore Rapa Nui’s major moai sites, volcanoes, and ancient villages on a flexible private tour with local guides over two days.

“It’s Impossible to tour Easter Island/Rapa Nui in a single day. There is just too much to take in. So, hiring a guide is highly recommend – especially if, like us, this is your first trip to this magical Island. And the BEST guide is Joaquin Soler! Joaquin is a native of Rapa Nui and just has to be the most knowledgeable and passionate advocate. He needs to be the face of Rapa Nui tourism. He is an archaeologist & historian who shares so much about the Island’s history, culture and people. And he has very strong mana – ask him when you see him. This is the most memorable…”

See Easter Island’s major moai sites, volcanic craters, caves, and beaches in two small-group days, with local guides and hotel pickup.

“The tour was well organised and covered all of the main sites that you are likely to want to see while here. Our guide was informative and also answered our questions about life on the island today, so we felt we learnt a lot. It is worth being aware that there is no lunch stop on the second day (which finished around 3pm) and that you must buy your National Park ticket separately.”
