At 3.700 km off the South American continent and surrounded by the clearest, deepest waters on the planet, Easter Island (also known as Rapa Nui) has been the cradle of a unique and enigmatic culture that continues to endure today. The island’s language, music, and numerous traditions are kept alive by the island’s inhabitants, while the enormous carved stone Moai are testimony to their mysterious past. The Rapa Nui culture has evolved to the present day keeping many of its original forms, those expressed in foods, sports, dances, music, ceremonies, crafts, and most importantly the language Vananga, which is still actively used. The dances, like Sau-Sau and Tamuré, together with the traditional music, continue to add color to festivals and ceremonies. The gastronomy is a repository of ancient recipes like Tunuahi, in which �ish is cooked over volcanic rocks heated by �irewood. For its remoteness, geographical beauty, and rich culture, Rapa Nui was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1995. Your stay in Easter Island can range anywhere from 3 to up to 5 nights, and each day you have a choice of either two half-day or one full-day activity around the island. The activities available each day vary by the property you choose to stay at, however most properties offer similar activities that are entirely �lexible to your physical abilities and travel style.

Amazing opportunities await each day, to explore the island on foot, by bicycle or by boat, unveiling its unique history and charm every step of the way. For those in search of awe-inspiring landscapes and views, in combination with a mysterious dive into history, Easter Island should be at the top of your list.

Rapa Nui Island is located 3,700 km (2,300 miles) off the coast of Chile in the vast paci�ic ocean, and is one of the most remote inhabited islands on the planet. It has been the home for an enigmatic civilization whose traditions have charmed travelers for over 200 years. Surrounded by the intense blue sea and under the watch of its gigantic Moai, Easter Island is a place that contains mysteries that are waiting to be revealed by explorers. With over 20 explorations available around the islands, guests can explore the mysteries of Rapa Nui either on foot, bike riding, or by a boat, led by the most professional, knowledgeable and friendly guides on the islands.

The daily explorations have different lengths and levels of dif�iculty. Full day explorations give you the privilege of having lunch at the seaside or at beach, while those that take half a day allow you to return to the hotel for lunch, and choose a second exploration for the afternoon.
