Private Full Day Tour on Easter Island "The Moai is born"

This beach with its white sands and turquoise waters is not only a tropical paradise, but also the epicenter of Rapa Nui's history. It was here that the founding king, Hotu Matu'a, landed, giving rise to a unique civilization. Sheltered by palm trees, the imposing moai of Ahu Nau Nau watch over the coast, uniting natural beauty with the sacred legacy of the first kings.

This archaeological site is home to the largest moai ever transported (weighing over 50 tons) and erected on a platform, as well as the largest crown, a "Pukao" (weighing over 9 tons). The statue, called "Moai Paro," is a colossal structure that now lies toppled, a silent witness to the end of an era. Beside it rests a mysterious, polished, spherical stone, imbued with magnetism, known as the "Navel of the World," an energetic connection point that fascinated ancient sages.

It is the largest and most iconic ceremonial structure in all of Polynesia. Fifteen colossal stone statues rise in perfect alignment, their backs to the Pacific Ocean to protect the island. Watching the sunrise behind these titanic silhouettes is an unparalleled mystical experience, where time seems to stand still and the history of the clans comes alive.

This extinct volcano is the birthplace of the island's giants and the only carved volcano in the world. Hundreds of moai lie on its slopes: some unfinished, others half-buried, all frozen in time before reaching their final destination. Walking through this sacred workshop of volcanic tuff is to witness the living legacy of the ancient sculptors, where the mystery of their transport remains etched in the rock. A unique archaeological wonder and an absolute must-see in Oceania and South America.

This archaeological site is a place of profound historical reverence, traditionally known as the tomb of King Hotu Matu'a. Akahanga is not just a sanctuary; it is one of the largest citadels on the island and the most starkly visible stage for the collapse of its culture. Here, the landscape conveys a profound sadness: the imposing moai lie toppled face down, silent witnesses to the devastating internal wars that fractured its people. Despite the tragedy it evokes, the site overflows with archaeological richness, remaining virtually intact. Walking among the remains of its boat-like houses (hare paenga) and ancient communal hearths allows one to discover what daily life was like alongside the great fallen giant

The interpretive village is a faithful reconstruction designed specifically for tourists to see, touch, and understand firsthand how an authentic ancient citadel functioned. This interactive space breaks down the barriers of passive observation, allowing visitors to enter traditional dwellings, touch original materials, and discover firsthand the ingenious agricultural techniques that enabled survival on the island. It is an immersive and educational experience that transforms history into something tangible, showcasing daily life, community organization, and the profound spiritual connection of the ancient inhabitants with their environment.
