Brilliant Monuments Tour

Lorann_D, May 2024
We had a brilliant tour with Patricio. We chose the Monuments Tour and saw everything we hoped for including the ‘maoi factory’ and the volcano crater which were highlights. Patricio’s deep knowledge of the island’s history brought to life the landscape, the archaeology and social connections. Patricio is among the very best guides we’ve had.

Amazing Day Tour

Our tour guide was Yoyo. He was absolutely amazing. Made the day so much fun and was super knowledgeable about the island and its history! We had the best day and couldn’t fault it. Will be recommending this to anyone coming to Easter Island!

Mauruuru!

Unforgettable experience

Alfred_L, Dec 2022
Tuhii was amazing! She provided us adequate information and answered all of our questions throughout our tour. We truly enjoyed our time with her that we decided to book additional activities and spent several more days with her husband, Marc, learning about the history, culture and people of Rapa Nui. We greatly appreciated their honesty and willingness to share information regarding the island. Pauline was also amazing! She was extremely communicative, informative and kind via email and text. We cannot recommend this company enough. Thank you Tuhii, Marc and Pauline for making our visit truly memorable!

Very knowledge and pleasant guide. We did the tour of the whole island and we're able to select the best spots to return next day on our rented car.

Quite expensive BUT the guide was fantastic. So kind, very careful & professional (and so nice!). A must-to-do tour!

Park workers on strike

Patricia C, Apr 2019
Our guide was wonderful and managed to get us into parts of the closed park, but the workers' strike closed most of the park. Very disappointed to come so far and pay for a private tour that couldn't be completed.

Response from Host, Jun 2019

Hello Patrcia, We agree it must have been very frustrating for you and we are sorry you were unable to see everything the island has to offer. Thank you for not blaming us and if you come back one day we will be sure to make it up to you.

Great tour

Olle F, Sep 2017
This trip was better than our highly expected expectations. Our guide was of one of the cultural mone important family with roots back in ancient time.As a native he gave us important information nof ancient and present living on the Island. He showed us the quary where the big stone statues were made and how they were transported. We also saw the Place where the first chief landed and where the fist native Child was borne. We looked at old houses and how they were built as an upp-side down kanoe. I Think this was one of the best guided tours I ever have taken part in.

Our guide Mark is so knowledgeable...

Marie B, May 2017
Our guide Mark is so knowledgeable about this beautiful island and its customs, he is a walking encyclopedia, lots of fun. We felt like this tour was custom made for us as being a private tour we were the only participants. It was simply wonderful, stunning views and so many surprises. I loved that Mark took photos of us at varying angles to give us a unique experience. We saw all the highlights, everything one would expect to see but then there was so much more, just simply a tour not to be missed.
