Full-Day Easter Island Excursion

Overview

Embark on a comprehensive exploration of Easter Island with a professional guide. This excursion is designed to discover the archaeological sites of Rapa Nui while strictly adhering to environmental regulations and authorised access to protect the territory. The agency is committed to the local economy, donating a percentage of its profits to support physical and sporting activities on the island. The itinerary is organised to minimise environmental impact and preserve the archaeological sites. Two options are available: a private day tour lasting 7 hours including lunch, and a standard day excursion lasting 9 hours. Pick-up service is included for both options. Please note that while the guide's accompaniment is included, the national park entrance ticket must be purchased separately from the Ma'u Henua community.
