Golden Hour Horseback Ride on Easter Island – Scenic Experience

Mitch_E, Sep 2026

An Incredible Horseback Ride to the Top of Rapa Nui

An Incredible Horseback Ride to the Top of Rapa Nui As someone traveling alone on Rapa Nui, this horseback ride was one of the highlights of my trip. My guide, Memo with Adventure Terevaka, was excellent—friendly, knowledgeable, and made me feel completely comfortable throughout the ride. The 2½-hour ride began by taking me through a huge eucalyptus forest. The forest was incredibly peaceful, and the smell of the eucalyptus trees was amazing. Eucalyptus was introduced to Easter Island as a fast-growing source of timber, and extensive plantings eventually created these large forests that are so striking against the island’s normally open landscape. After leaving the forest, we traveled across beautiful rolling hills and open countryside, gradually making our way to Terevaka, the highest point on Easter Island. Riding through the middle of the island, away from the crowds and surrounded by such incredible scenery, gave me a wonderful feeling of being completely immersed in Rapa Nui. As I descended, the sun was setting, and the views became absolutely spectacular. It was a beautiful and peaceful way to experience the island. And I have to mention my horse! His name is the Spanish word for “wind,” and he was great—calm, dependable, and a wonderful companion for the afternoon. Traveling alone, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. A beautiful afternoon, an incredible landscape, a great horse, and an excellent guide. I highly recommend Memo and Adventure Terevaka! I wanted to add pictures, but Viator will not allow me.

Incredible Day

Today was my first full day on Rapa Nui (Easter Island), and what a day it was. I took a Viator tour led by Bie, a multi-generational Rapa Nui woman whose gentle voice and deep connection to nature made the history come alive. She shared stories passed down through her family for generations, and my soul was truly filled. We began by exploring ancient volcanic caves, including Ana Te Pahu, where natural openings, water and humidity created fertile places for growing bananas and other crops. The caves also provided shelter and refuge. We saw the foundations of ancient hare paenga—stone houses shaped like overturned canoes. The carefully fitted lava stones had holes where wooden supports were secured. Bie said that when her ancestors first arrived, they used their boats as roofs for their homes, and over time they became almost obsessed with that familiar shape. Then we visited Ahu Akivi and its seven moai, traditionally believed to represent the seven Polynesian explorers who came to Rapa Nui ahead of King Hotu Matu'a. They are unusual because they face toward the sea and, symbolically, toward Polynesia. We also visited an unrestored site where fallen moai and their pukao still lie scattered across the landscape. Bie explained that the moai represented ancestors and served as protectors and guardians of their clans. During conflicts, destroying a rival clan's moai would have been a powerful symbolic blow. We ended at Orongo, a sacred ceremonial village perched on the rim of the enormous Rano Kau volcano. Bie showed us the ancient stone houses and told stories of births, warriors and the famous Birdman ceremonies. Standing on the rim of the volcano that helped create this island was simply breathtaking. It was a day filled with ancient stories, incredible stonework, volcanic landscapes, and a culture that is still alive today. I am exhausted—but my soul is very full. ❤️🌺

Even Better the Second Time!!!!!

This is the second time we have done this tour - and it was just as extraordinary as it was 2 years ago (you can see my original review dated June 2024). We were very honored to have Joaquin as our guide again. He did such an amazing job on showing us around the Island. And doing this a second time was so much fun absorbing all the details Joaquin shared. Don't think about it - just do it and make sure to ask for Joaquin if he is available.

Moai and polynesian beauty!

We enjoyed seeing the various Moai, Anakena Beach, and the quarry; and did not feel too rushed. The tour ended up being about 6 hours and not 8-9 hours (unsure if it was because of our group size or what). Isabel (our guide) and Rafa (our driver) were great. Isabel is a Rapa Nuian and getting the history from her was special. Heads up to remember to bring a lunch and snacks as given where you are on the island, there aren't really any restaurants. So when it says "lunch not included" on the description, it doesn't just mean you're paying for yourself but to bring your own lunch.

Amazing guided tour of Rapa Nui

Don’t hesitate - just book this tour!!! My 12 year old son and I came from Michigan (USA) to see this magical place, and I wanted a private tour so that we would have a more personalized experience. It was such a fantastic experience!!! And after talking to some of the other travelers we met while in Rapa Nui, unfortunately not everyone had such a great experience with their guides. But our guide Joaquin not only grew up in Rapa Nui, but he was extremely knowledgeable about every little detail about the island - both historical and current events -so we learned so much more than just the history of the moai. Most importantly to me, he made it very interesting for my 12 year old son… and he kept my son engaged by asking him questions and playing chess with him at lunch, etc. Joaquin was truly such a kind person and I have no doubt that he has left a lasting impression on both myself and my son. He also spoke excellent English and was a very good driver. He personalized the 2 day experience according to our interests and also modified the order of things according to the changing weather (we only experienced some light rain- but Joaquin made sure that we saw the things we wanted to photograph the most while the sun was out ). He chose great spots for us to have lunch on both days. Several other guides that we came across saw us with him and said to us “oh you are lucky - you have the best guide!” We definitely agreed with those other guides! The island is such a special place, and I am so grateful that we had such an amazing guide to make it such an unforgettable and amazing experience. I know this is a bit more money than the group tours, but you really do get what you pay for. With this private tour, you get to avoid the group vans which take longer to get everyone on and off … and you can personalize the tour as much as you want. I feel this was much more relaxing and enjoyable than doing a group tour. But again, the very best part was our amazing guide Joaquin!

Culture and historic tour of Rapa Nui

If you are looking to learn more about the history and culture of Rapa Nui, this is a great excursion to get a taste. This is a half day tour and a great opportunity to see the main sights of the island. Also shout out to Kino (tour guide) for being very kind and knowledgeable about the history of the island, and also to Estevan (driver) for also being very nice!

Very romantic and magical

This tour is very special, and unfortunately doesn’t happen without many variables being aligned perfectly. Weather, Moon, clouds - everything should be perfect. We got incredibly lucky, because we booked the tour for the very last night in the Island, and everything aligned perfectly! The tour was absolutely fantastic!!! Don’t remember myself enjoying a tour this much ❤️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ 🌟 🌟 We got amazing photos! Thank you!

Highly recommended night experience

Highly recommend this experience on Rapa Nui. The Milky Way, zillions of stars, constellations, and galaxies are visible. We were taken to two locations on the island--one where we looked through telescopes and enjoyed hot chocolate and a snack, the other where the maoi were silhouetted by starlight and the ocean.

Private Tour: Tongariki Sunrise Experience

Adele_S, Mar 2026

A great tour with the ability to adjust.

I highly recommend this tour - it was sensational. Having the private guide meant we could adjust as I wanted without worrying about anyone else. This meant I could see things that the other tours didnt. My guide, Isabel was very good - friendly, warm and knowledgable. Altogether, I thought the private tour was worth the premium of the mass tours.
