I would avoid this tour. First, we did not go to all sites. When we told the tour guide, we saw the one, she decided we would not be visiting it again. Second, the distances are SO WRONG. We hiked for 5 miles total. In the sun. In the heat. In the middle of the day. We were told we just needed a little water and travel light. We left behind our bags that had our sunscreen and sun hats and larger quantities of water. The tour guide, Thais, walked so far ahead of us, we could barely see her at times. Ana Kanenga has a very very small entrance. If you have any fear of small spaces, I would not recommend. The tour guide admitted to rarely doing this tour and wasnt sure what it all was. She wanted to give this tour in Spanish when we speak English and gave little to information about the sites. Honestly, there are better options on this island.

Iorana,
Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. However, we would like to clarify a few important points about the tour and the nature of this excursion.
The Easter Island Caves Tour is an adventure tour that takes place in a protected area, and as such, it requires a certain level of physical fitness. We always inform our guests in advance when a tour has physical demands, as is the case with this one. It’s not uncommon for some visitors to feel prepared and later realize the challenge of the route. Our guides assess the situation in real-time, and in your case, the decision not to revisit certain sites was based on safety protocols. The wellbeing of our guests is always a top priority.
Regarding the language, our guides are experienced, certified locals who communicate in the language preferred by our visitors. If there was any confusion, we sincerely apologize, but we can assure you that our guides respond to all queries in the language spoken by the guest.
We strive to provide a high standard of service through knowledgeable, professional guides. We appreciate your feedback as it helps us continually improve, and if you ever decide to visit again, we would be happy to offer a tour better suited to your preferences and abilities.
Mauruuru,

Very cool caves. Trees grow inside openings. Not physically challenging, just few tighter spots. Good walking shoes preferred. The tour slso inclides an Ahu where you can get close to fallen moais without any tourists around.
