Best adventure in Rapa Nui 🗿
Melody_M, May 2024
joaquin Was an amazing tour guide! So knowledgeable and passionate. He was so patient with my father who has done walking limitations. We enjoyed every aspect of this two day tour. It was retirement bucket list adventure for my dad and this private tour lead by joaquin made his dreams come true!
Don’t miss this 2 day island experience!
Curtis_S, Apr 2024
Yoyo is an incredible tour guide who I highly recommend. He is a native Polynesian and has vast historical and family history to share at the many sites we visited.
Good tour !
Carol_M, Mar 2024
This was a good way to see Easter Island without having to rent a vehicle or see things piecemeal on a few separate tours.We feel like we saw everything we needed to see because we won't be back again ! Also, we were able to see things without too many people around at the sites - which is important to my husband since he takes a lot of photos and is always needing to remove people from photoshop. This helped a lot ! It was at a good pace and the guide was very knowledgeable.
Spectacular Easter Island Experience with Joaquin Soler Hotu - ¡Māuru-uru!
Edwn_R, Mar 2024
We had the true pleasure of having Joaquin Soler Hotu as our tour guide for this private 2 day tour and what a wonderful experience it was! His knowledge of the island and the Rapa Nui culture made this trip more magical and incredibly informative! Joaquin allowed for us to take our time exploring the different sights, provided additional inside knowledge on great photography spots, and went above & beyond what the tour included by taking us to off the beaten path locations that only locals know which made for some incredible photography!! Some examples on how Joaquin made our trip more amazing was his attention to detail when explaining the history of Rapa Nui, personal attention towards us which included getting fresh aloe to aid with sunburns and taking us to great restaurants which he knew the chefs well allowing us to have delicious local cuisine! After our tour ended, we were able to hire Joaquin a 3rd day to take us to even more amazing island sites that were not part of the tour including experiencing a magnificent sunrise at Ahu Tongariki. We 1000% recommend Joaquin Soler Hotu as a tour guide for your Easter Island visit and this Viator itinerary which is very comprehensive. THANK YOU!! / ¡Māuru-uru!
Extremely knowledgeable guide, packed itinerary over two days takes you to all the major sites.

Thanks to an amazing guide (Andres), I was privileged to get a unique tour into literally every aspect of the history of this island. Warmly recommended!
An ABSOLUTE must!!
Gail_P, Jan 2024
If you have the luck in getting Alberto as your guide - you are in for the treat of a lifetime. He was so knowledgeable in history, geology, botany, archeology - there was not a question we asked he could not answer, even if the answer was "there are multiple theories on that topic!" He is a safe driver, courteous, and gives clear instruction when needed during our exploration. Additionally, he is humourous and takes excellent photos - which made our time together just perfect. This is the perfect tour for those who are looking for a cultural education done with respect to Rapa Nui as an ever changing people. Worth every penny - oh and he knows the best spot for lunch!
Beautiful cultural experience
RosemaryJose_P, Jan 2024
Andres was very knowledgeable about everything. He had very deep and profound answers to almost all of my questions. He was also happy to pick me up and drop me off at other parts of the town instead of the hostel as the hostel was quite far from the main centre. He even gave me recommendations on where to eat while in Rapa Nui. Would recommend for anyone that has two full days to spent in Easter Island.
The best tour in 40 years of travel
David_C, Jan 2024
Easter Island is a special and unique experience but the tour guide,Andreas made it the best tour experience I have ever had. His in-depth knowledge and explanations of everything we saw made a special tour into something my wife and I will never forget.
Magical place

I have to say this was one of the most amazing tour I’ve done. I was only on the island for 3 days, so I did this 2 day tour of Easter island. And you definitely get to see all island and all the famous sites, I was very speechless and very happy: Thanks to Andres, and Zoe for such a great day on the tours you were both very knowledgeable of the island and it’s sites.

Informative, historically and culturally. Generally a great experience. Lunch could definitely improve, although setting was great .
Easter Island Highlights

We booked the two day tour to get a better overview of Easter Island. We were well rewarded. We had different guides each day, but each was excellent. They explained the history of the island and the restoration of the moai. The vans were comfortable, the pace was well suited to the group. And added bonus was that the owners of the company, Easter Island Travel, invited us to lunch at their home both days. It was an opportunity to interact on a different level with local residents. I would recommend the tour.
amazing 2 days
revelh, Nov 2019
our two day tour of Easter Island was excellent. Our guide Franco was knowledgeable, personable and attentive. The cultural sites and scenery far exceeded my expectations. Lunch with a local family was special. The other people on the tour were great. There is a lot of walking on rough ground, up and down some steep hills so wear good strong shoes. I would really recommend the tour to ensure you get the best out of visiting the cultural sites. Franco knew his history, culture and explained every thing so well, giving us time to take photos and enjoy everything. An added bonus was seeing whales just off the coast. Couldn't fault anything - loved every moment.
A must!
eygeniak2018, Oct 2019
One of the best experiences you can have one the island Atwood day trip is a must. You see everything you want in a relaxed way. Both guides Maeva and Franco were friendly and knew everything we asked them. The group was small enough to be a nice company. The unexpected highlight though was the lunch in a Rapa Nui style! Thanks for everything!
Mixed feelings
McKenna B, Oct 2019
This tour is from the easter island travel company which you can find a website for with a quick search online for more details about the tours. I did the 2 day package which is tour A and tour B on their website. The first day of tours, tour A, was well... partly a bit boring... It started off with not the best guide.. he didn't know how to drive well and he told us that he was 'not great at remembering years' so I was very unsure how accurately he was depicting the history. He also didn't really guide us around and instead let us free roam while he was on his cellphone in the back. Worst of all, we ended the day by skipping one of the spots(one of the most beautiful spots) on the tour. The second day of the tour was much better, tour B. I loved our guide, the girl of the group. She was enthusiastic and upbeat the whole time. She walked us around and really listened to our questions. She was very knowledgeable and helpful. Quality wise, tour B was much better and has all of the stuff you are excited to see. Both days, however, you actually do get lunch and get to meet the owner and his family. They are very friendly and will sing you traditional songs!
Nice overview of Easter Island when having just few days to visit
Costanza_S, Sep 2019
I did both tours and both had very well prepared young local guides who passionately made us discover the beauty of this remote place. Really recommended for who just like me might have only 3 days to experience the place
