3.00Being there for the sunrise was awesome. But getting there and back was terrifying! The driver went over 80 kmh twice the speed limit, very scary. Guide slept the whole way there and the whole time while there, basically no guide except to open and close the van door.
Amazing.

5.00A totally worthwhile experience. The tour is very well thought out and enjoyed from start to finish. The guides, being natives, make everything much more enriching and authentic, sharing their culture and knowledge very closely. In addition, they are super friendly and attentive, which makes one very comfortable throughout the tour. The price-quality ratio is excellent, and you can see the punctuality and care in every detail. Undoubtedly, an experience I recommend 100%.

5.00A truly unforgettable experience. Seeing the sunrise in Rapa Nui is something unique, full of energy and meaning. The tour was very well organized, with fair times and a clear explanation that helps to understand the importance of the place. Everything was given respectfully and calmly, which made the moment even more special. Fully recommended.
Ontime driver but disappointed in company

2.00The driver was on time and very good and polite, but I felt the tour misrepresented us. The sunrise view and pick-up timing are really wonderful. However, there was no coffee or tea offered, and there was no instruction given by the guide. The description says we would get a history lesson on the place, but no narrative was given. Basically, it's just a ride there and back. I would definitely see the sunrise, but I would hire a private guide to take you or use another tour group.
