Overview

Embark on a journey through time, visiting the most awe-inspiring locations in chronological order. Learn about the arrival of the first king, the rise and fall of the mighty moai statues, the deadly competitions of the birdman order and the arrival of missionaries, ending the ancient culture.

Enjoying the personalized experience of having a guide of your own, you will have all the time in the world for questions, and you'll be able to have the tour adjust to your taste and liking.

The itinerary is highly optimized to visit the sites with best possible light conditions for photography, and with the least amount of crowds around.

Anakena Beach

At the most beautiful beach of the island, the capital of the ancient society was located. In the sand stands a monument with the best preserved restored moais of the entire island. Quite recently they were dug up after centuries of having been buried in the sand. If interested in having a swim or enjoying some beach time, we suggest coming back on your own, as the tour will mainly focus on the archaeological and historical aspect of this area.
