Departure with driver and guide in shared service to the archaeological site of Ahu Vaihu, where several Moai lie face down. This site offers a fascinating insight into the history and construction of the Moai, showcasing remains of unfinished statues and abandoned carved stones. The site provides a tranquil environment to contemplate these imposing ancient creations in a magnificent natural setting.

Continue to the Rano Raraku quarry, where most of the moai were sculpted. This volcanic quarry is famous for its cliffs of tuff, where Polynesian sculptors extracted stone blocks to create the island's iconic statues. Many Moai are still in various stages of production, some lying on the hillside, others still in the carving process. Rano Raraku offers a captivating view of the creation process of these ancestral monuments.

We then continue our journey to discover the "Navel of the World" with AHU TE PITO KURA.

Next, we arrive at Anakena Beach, one of the few white sandy beaches on Easter Island. It contrasts with the volcanic landscape that surrounds it. Lined with palm trees and crystal-clear waters, this beach is not only magnificent but also steeped in history, as it houses several restored Moai, some of which stand facing the sea.
Anakena is an ideal place to relax, swim, and sunbathe while discovering the unique history and culture of Easter Island.

In the afternoon, visit the Akivi site, famous for its seven moai aligned facing the ocean. This site is unique because the moai face inward, towards the island, unlike most others that face the sea. It is believed they were erected to observe the stars, as they are aligned with specific points in the sky.

Continue to Tahai, a ceremonial complex consisting of three platforms with restored moai, an ahu (sacred platform), and a collection of petroglyphs. Tahai is often visited for its magnificent sunsets over the Pacific Ocean, providing a picturesque setting to discover the history and culture of Easter Island.
