We enjoyed seeing the various Moai, Anakena Beach, and the quarry; and did not feel too rushed. The tour ended up being about 6 hours and not 8-9 hours (unsure if it was because of our group size or what). Isabel (our guide) and Rafa (our driver) were great. Isabel is a Rapa Nuian and getting the history from her was special. Heads up to remember to bring a lunch and snacks as given where you are on the island, there aren't really any restaurants. So when it says "lunch not included" on the description, it doesn't just mean you're paying for yourself but to bring your own lunch.
Our Rapa Nui guide Chris was highly knowledgeable, engaging and friendly. Throughout the tour, he shared detailed historical accounts and personal stories about the island and its culture. The scheduling was excellent. Even though it operated in a group of 15, the experience felt intimate and highly personalised. The tour involved a packed schedule and the lunch stop (at own expense) was not taken until late in the afternoon. To my mind, that was an insignificant sacrifice given it meant we were able to hit all of the main sights ahead of the other tour groups.
I highly recommend Rapa Nui Dream as the company to do any and all tours on the island with! Our guide David was super informative and taught us a lot including personal stories of living and growing up on the island. The sights we saw covered all the highlights on that part of the island.
Best experience so far for the easter island tour. Liz was so professional and the whole tour was so well organized
Excellent tour, covered all the major sites. We had a very knowledgeable tour guide
A very thorough and very interesting tour. Exhausting but well worth every step. Excellent guide who shepherded us along the way. Top marks.
Great 1 day tour of Easter Island with all the main attractions included! The guide Andrej was fantastic. The trip did not feel rushed, there was adequate explanation, and overall was a lovely experience.
Pick up was listed as 9:30, we were picked up at 9:50. The van was comfortable with good ac, the driver was safe. The guide seemed unenthusiastic and with the wind, which is typical for the island, we could hardly hear his talks. We told him twice that it was hard to hear him, he said “yes it’s windy” that is all. We had breakfast at our hotel at 8 and didn’t stop on the tour for lunch until 3 at the very end of the tour. The sights were all good more information about the culture and rituals would have been nice. I would have found a cheaper tour if I had known there were many around the island but we booked before getting there
Very informative tour. Knowledgeable guide
Our tour guide Tongaiki (Tonga) was awesome. He took us to significant sites and explained the history and culture to us. He was very patient and answered any questions we could throw at him. At the end of the day. We were a little tired, but learned a lot and had a great time. Definiteltly recommend this tour and definitely recimmwnd Tonga as a guide.
