This tour promises a mesmerizing encounter with the iconic Moai statues, a testament to the ancient Rapa Nui civilization's ingenuity and celestial wisdom. As you set foot on the sacred grounds of Ahu Akivi, you'll be greeted by a striking tableau of seven imposing Moai statues, each standing proudly against the backdrop of the Pacific Ocean. What sets Ahu Akivi apart is the unique positioning of these statues, as they face the open sea rather than the island's interior, a distinctive feature not found in other ceremonial platforms.

  • Great sights, lackluster guide.

    It took quite a while to get going. We had to wait for several people. That was understandable, but we felt the guide could have kept us better informed. He also arrived later than we were told, which made it difficult to find him. The entire tour, we felt he was unhelpful and not very enthusiastic or engaged. He did not keep us informed of the next stop or how long it would take to get there. He was not involved in getting people organized for lunch or making sure people’s orders were taken or help people to pay quickly so we didn’t finish that stop on time. The tour ran over by about 2 hours, and then he was pushing us to go to one more stop when there were now concerns about returning to the ship on time. No one wanted to risk being late. He felt getting on the last tender would be fine. The group did not agree. His helper was great. He deserves 5 stars.

  • Wonderful sightseeing

    The guide seemed hurry and push the time at every sites. She did not give us a lunch break. The whole tour ended at 2:40 pm without a notice and “good-bye”. It is good to give us the information, but she exchanged the English and Spanish pieces by pieces , making some difficult to understand.

    We were visiting Easter Island via cruise ship so we only had a day to experience the mysteries of the island. To visit the moai has been a bucket list item for me. The boys from Hotumatur Rapa Nui tours did not disappoint. The itinerary was a great selection of the sites and they knew their history and culture. It was a terrific day out and I thoroughly recommend them.

    In the land of the Moai, almost 1000, we saw 7. There were 23 people on our bus. The tour guide also drove, so there was no narrative while he was driving. There were both English & Spanish speakers so discussions and questions had to be translated.. We visited 6 sites including a cave. The cave took over an hour, to walk to it and through it. It was dark and we had to use cell phone flashlights, lots of water on the floor and low ceilings. Completed waste of time. Some of the remaining 5 sites in 3 hours were good, others not. When the guy told us we were at our last (the 6th site) most of us were surprised. He then took us back to the pickup site. We did tip him but from what we saw, no one else did. Sorry we missed more of Easter Island.

    Very good experience on the tour. The guide knew a lot and spoke several languages, so everything was perfect. The prices were quite convenient and the views, along with the cultural part, are really worth it. Fully recommended.
