After an early breakfast, you will be transferred to the airport for your included flight to Easter Island. Upon arrival at Rapa Nui, you will be transferred to your hotel in the heart of the city. Easter Island, also known as Rapa Nui, is a small but fascinating island famous for its towering Moai statues scattered throughout the landscape. These statues continue to intrigue the world, not only due to their impressive size and number but also because of the mysterious circumstances surrounding their construction. With limited resources—little fresh water, no cattle, and no metal tools—the islanders somehow transported the massive statues across rugged, hilly terrain to their final resting places. The remainder of the day is at leisure. Special Information Your travel time today will be approximately 6 hours. A Registration System for entering to Rapa Nui (Rapa Nui Entry Form) is mandatory for all travellers to Easter Island. Please refer to the Pre-Tour Essentials for further information.

Today you will visit some of the most amazing places related to the mysterious moai of the island. The guided tour begins at “Ahu Akahanga”, an area of fallen moai and legends that tell of the burial site of the island's first king. The adventure continues with a visit to Rano Raraku, the sacred site where most of these stone giants were carved, uncovering the enigmas behind the transportation of these imposing figures to various locations around the island. The next destination is Ahu Tangariki, which features 15 restored moai that have been erected in recent decades, serving as a perfect prelude to Te Pito Kura, a ceremonial centre that houses the largest moai ever constructed. Conclude your tour by visiting Hanga Rau or Te Ariki, better known as Anakena Beach, where the best-preserved moai on the island are located. Here, you can also take a moment to relax while enjoying its beautiful beach, complete with palm trees, white sand, and turquoise waters. A boxed lunch will be provided today.
