Private Tour: Full-Day Easter Island Archeological sites

Please see my review under the Tangeriki Sunrise Experience. We actually did 2 half day tours of the sites and a trek through Poole Peninsula and a half day horseback ride to the top of Maunga Terevaka. Both our guides were knowledgeable and fun. Both were eager to share their culture and history with us. Sebastian and “Wind” were our guides. Wind has a Rapa Nui name that we couldn’t remember. So he told us to call him “Wind.” Apparently his family name means “thief of leaves” which is a reference to the wind which blows the leaves off the trees. We thoroughly enjoyed all of our adventures with those two.

We booked a hotel and private tour package. Everything was excellent. Sebastian was a wonderful guide. In addition to his encyclopedic knowledge of the history and archeology, he brings a real passion to sharing his homeland with his visitors. Our plans changed unexpectedly mid tour and he accommodated the truncation of our tour so that we felt that we had not missed any of the major sites. Alejandra in the office was also helpful. I highly recommend their services.

If I ever return to Rapa Nui (Easter Island), Kava Kava Tours will be my first contact. We came to the Island with very little notice during high season. Alejandra was so helpful in assisting my planning our visit, it would have been far more difficult without her expert advice. We did the amazing tours with Sebastian Paoa as our guide and cultural expert. We went to Isla de Pascua thinking of it as a land of mysterious statues but it is so much more. Easter Island is first of all a land of a unique people group (Rapa Nui) with a very unique culture and history. They are a very friendly and welcoming people with great pride in their heritage. The Island itself is strikingly beautiful, unlike anyplace I have traveled. Sebastian made the entire Island come alive with his knowledge of the people and their culture. Yes the Moai are amazing and mysterious but Rapa Nui is so much more. Plan on at least three days for a once in a lifetime experience. I hope to return. Thank you Kava Kava, Alejandra, and Sebastion.

Very good experience. We were picked up at 6:30 in the morning and finished at 4 p.m. Sebastian, our guide, accompanied us at all times and was essential to understand the history and culture of the island. Extra recommended and personalized. The rating table is short in this case

We took a day tour with the best of Easter Island, with a focus on the moai. Due to a flight delay, we also had to move the day of the tour, and the agency was very helpful, postponing it to the day after the tour the guide was a girl, Soledad, very prepared and very nice. I strongly recommend it, his preparation on the history of Rapa Nui and the Moai was very high. I would add that it is the cheapest private tour found, and it is perfect for having a flouring all over the island, and then maybe turn it yourself in the following days

Excellent responsiveness and organization of the agency which offers in one day a visit to the island’s flagship sites. A huge THANK YOU to Sebastian who adapted to our needs and our level of English and did not save his time to share and understand the exciting history of the island and the vision of its future.
