The guide was very professional and very nice, introducing us to the different Moai and the culture behind it, we had a very good day and were very grateful

The tour was excellent. We were able to pick our own schedule and despite being already somewhat familiar with the Island, we managed to visit all the places we have never seen before. We also needed some physical support to climb steep slopes and we were happy to feel safe at all times. The tour gave us a wholly new perspective on the history, geography, and the underlying mysteries of the place. We also had a comparison with another tour booked through another operator and this one came way ahead. Definitely recommend.

We did the tour as part of our honeymoon in March 2024. Both the guide and the driver were awesome and our guide was super helpful and competent in explaining us the sites and the history behind them. She gave us also explanations about the culture and the beliefs of the population which we really appreciated and found really interesting. Unfortunately we had a misunderstanding which lead to do just half of what it was supposed to be, but after sending an email they refunded us for part of the cost and explained what happened and that of course was totally unintentional. It was just an unfortunate thing that sometimes can happen. But overall we appreciated the tour, and also how they handled the situation. I recommend the activity as one of the most comprehensive and detailed I have ever experienced.
