When people think about Easter Island they think about the statues, the famous Moai. On this tour, we will focus on this period of the history of the island, the time of the Moai, from the arrival of the first Polynesians, until the unfortunate destruction of the statues and its altars. You will learn about the ancient Rapa Nui society, how it was organized around the symbol of the moai and the profound symbolism behind these statues. We will discuss how the statues were carved and moved around the island and the challenges involve in all this tremendous work!
Pick up from accommodation and then: Vaihu: We will visit a recreation of a typical rapa nui village, we will learn about all the basic archeological structures you will see on the island. Akahanga: one of the most well-preserved archeological sites of the island where you can still appreciate the ancient structures in original conditions. Rano Raraku: The birthplace of the Moai. This is the main quarry of the island and where you'll see more than 400 Moai in different stages of the carving process. Tongariki: One of the most iconic sites, the largest altar of the island with 15 statues standing proudly. Spending a few minutes in front of them is without doubts a breathtaking experience. Te Pito Kura: Take a look to the biggest Moai that was ever standing on a platform, today toppled. Anakena: The arrival place for the first people of the island, we will see two restored platforms with Moai and also you'll have some free time to enjoy the beach.
