Know before you go

The general idea is to offer a complete and comfortable service to make everything easier and more accessible for our visitors. For this, we have designed a tourist package that includes accommodation and excursions, as well as transportation, thereby covering the needs of our tourists in a practical way. The rest of the service offers a flexible excursion that includes the most relevant tourist attractions of the place: history, ethnography, and archaeology. The route design is flexible and can be modified if it interests our visitors.
Minimum 02 night.
You pay for the tour on this page and accommodation on arrival.
Includes one night at a 3-star hotel.
As you spend more nights at the accommodation, you'll receive more discounts, at least 10 dollars per night, which will be deducted from the total to be paid.
Accommodation is provided each day. If Hotel Rapa Nui is not available, a standard 3-star hotel in the downtown centre will be used.

Cultural experiences for 3 days, full of experiences!

If you are not a person who suffers from asthma and is overweight at the same time, I think we should not have any complications, and we could do most of the tours on the island, something like 90%. For the rest, we could see how to do them in the same way, looking for support systems such as climbing Mount Terevaka on horseback, taking the same boat ride, and, if you dare, snorkeling or sport diving. For me, there are no impossible things, and I always find a way for my visitors to have the best possible experience. Overall, the idea is to make things flexible and accessible for you.
