Easter Island

Easter Island Pack: Multi Activity - 3 Days - Easy

Discover the most remote island in the world!

Rapa Nui’s mysterious moai statues stand in silence but speak volumes about the achievements of their creators. The stone blocks, carved into head-and-torso figures, average 13 feet (4 meters) tall and 14 tons. The effort to construct these monuments and move them around the island must have been considerable—but no one knows exactly why the Rapa Nui people undertook such a task...

Enjoy Polynesian dance show, wonderful sunsets, practice scuba diving, visit the breath-taking Moais Statues, their caves, or enjoy amazing Polynesian beaches, stand at the border of Terevaca Volcano and much more.
