Route
At the most beautiful beach of the island, the capital of the ancient society was located. In the sand stands a monument with the best preserved restored moais of the entire island. Quite recently they were dug up after centuries of having been buried in the sand. If interested in having a swim or enjoying some beach time, we suggest coming back on your own, as the tour will mainly focus on the archaeological and historical aspect of this area.
The tallest moai that was ever successfully transported to its ahu can be found in this area. It was an amazing 9.9 m tall. Just like all other statues it was toppled in ancient times, and today it is still unrestored. There is also a round magnetic rock in this area that some say has magical properties.
Small volcano where the red scoria stone was quarried for the moai statue topknots - the so called pukao. All of the moai statue pukaos come from this place.
The only monument with moais that are looking out towards the sea.
The tribesmen of this village were remarkably ambitious and hard-working. They raised several statues at three different ahu platforms. A ramp was made to enter the ocean from within the area.
The crater of volcano Rano Kau is one of the most stunning views of the whole island. Its crater lake was one of the most important sources of drinking water in ancient times.
Ceremonial stone village dedicated to the birdman competition, located at the ridge of volcano Rano Kau. From within Orongo we will have a fantastic view of the crater of this volcano.

5Great day with Yeni
Yeni was my tour leader today on a solo tour of the moai, and she was fabulous. From the moment I stepped into her car she was 100% flexible with my thoughts on the day and made the itinerary feel completely personal. She is full of knowledge and brought the sites to life without ever making it feel like a lecture. We covered a lot of ground — Ahu Te Pito Kura, Puna Pau, Ahu Akivi, Ahu Tahai, and Rano Kau — plus a stop at the local Catholic church. The pacing never felt rushed. A highlight was stopping at a roadside bakery for fresh empanadas — simple, delicious, and a perfect break in the day. I would love to leave some pictures, but Viator will not allow me. If you are traveling solo or just want a guide who actually listens and adapts, book Yeni. Highly recommended.
5Island tour
Neo speaks very well English. He knows a lot about the history of the island. Very flexible guide for this tour
5Good
I visited many wonderful landmarks and important sites. The view is breathtaking. And the historical sites are beautiful and interesting.
5mistery and history. unique place. no Moais anywhere.
very special place, very far - 5hours flight form santiago de chile, quite expensive. the island itself is not that beautiful. but the Moais, the archeology, the history, the mistery, the fresh tuna and shrimps are really special. 3 nights are more than enough. you take 1 full day tour. the next day the hanu raku and Orongo tour takes around 4-5 hours. and then the sun rise at the ahu tangarik. and you are almost done.
5What a perfekt day
We had a fantastic time in this trip with our lovely guide Etienne. We really enjoyed the tour and we have seen so many of this wonderful Island.
5Good and helpful toru company!
Alberto arranged four different tours for us during our visist to Ester Island. All were very good, as were the tour guides. There is lots to see on Rapa Nui, but we got to see alot thanks to Alberto and his team. We also apprecited his flexibility, as we had to change some of our plans.

About Hanga Roa
Hanga Roa is the only town on Easter Island, Chile's remote Pacific outpost, with a small harbour and giant stone moai within walking distance.
Hanga Roa stretches along the west coast of Easter Island, called Rapa Nui by its people, some 3,500 km west of the Chilean coast. Nearly all the island's residents live here, in low houses among gardens, around a small fishing harbour and a church. A short walk north, the moai of Tahai stand on a platform beside the sea, facing inland, and the sun sets behind them.
Top-ranked sights in Hanga Roa: Ana Kai Tangata.
