Guide

The aim of our local guides is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. On this Short Break Adventure you will get to enjoy the variety of having someone different for each day and/or activity. They will be able to provide information on the places you are travelling through, offer suggestions for things to do and see, recommend great local eating venues and, where possible, introduce you to our local friends. You can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the places visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious and social aspects.

Accommodation

The style of accommodation indicated in the day-to-day itinerary is a guideline only and may change. On some occasions, alternative arrangements may need to be made due to the lack of availability of rooms in our preferred accommodation. In these cases, we will use a similar standard of accommodation. Throughout the trip, we request that our properties prepare rooms in time for our arrival, especially if weโ€™re arriving prior to normal check-in time. However, this isnโ€™t always possible which means we wonโ€™t be able to check-in immediately on arrival at some hotels. Instead, we can store our luggage and explore our new destination or on some trips, have use of shared day rooms until all rooms are available. Hotel (3 nights)

Itinerary of your trip Easter Island (Rapa Nui) Short Break

  • Day 1 Day 1: Hanga Roa
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 1: Hanga Roa

      On arrival at Easter Islandโ€™s Mataveri Airport you will be welcomed and transferred to your hotel in Hanga Roa, the islandโ€™s main town. Once you have checked into the hotel the remainder of your first day will be free. Hanga Roa is a small place with 3800 inhabitants but has excellent facilities such as banks, shops, restaurants and bars. At the port in the middle of town you will be immediately greeted by your first moai โ€“ Ahu Tautira. There is much to see and do if free time is available. To the north of town are some scenic spots complete with more moai, as well as the Sebastian Englebert Museum of Anthropology โ€“ a good place to get acquainted with the Easter Island story.

  • Day 2 Day 2: Hanga Roa
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 2: Hanga Roa

      After breakfast, you will join other travellers on a guided excursion around Easter Island. The island covers an area of 117 square kilometres, so it is quite manageable to see most of the island in a day. Youโ€™ll leave Hanga Roa and travel along the south coast to Ahu Vaihu, where you will see eight large toppled moai lying face down on the ground. Youโ€™ll then continue to Rano Raraku, a large volcano also known as โ€™the nursery of the moaiโ€™ because the statues around the island were cut from the stones that came from this quarry. Around this area can be found a 21 metre high moai, the largest one ever carved. At Ahu Tongariro, you will be faced with the impressive sight of 15 restored moai right on the coastline. The originals were destroyed by a huge tidal wave in 1960. Along the north coast is Anakena, a beautiful sandy beach with swaying palm trees. However, as with many significant spots on Easter Island, there is a moai nearby standing guard in its own inimitable fashion.

  • Day 3 Day 3: Hanga Roa
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 3: Hanga Roa

      In the morning you will join other travellers on a visit to Orongo Ceremonial Village, which is set in a dramatic location 400 metres high on a ridge with the ocean on one side and the crater lake of Rano Kau on the other. It contains remnants of art relating to a birdman cult that has been around on the island for centuries. Nearby are a few moai at Ahu Vinapu. In the afternoon you will travel to Akivi and view the seven moai that overlook the site of an ancient village and out west towards the setting sun.

  • Day 4 Day 4: Hanga Roa
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 4: Hanga Roa

      Your Short Break Adventure will come to an end today after breakfast. You will be transferred to the airport for your onward flight. Please ensure we are advised of your flight details when booking your Easter Island experience.
