The mysterious Easter Island

2 travelers

Couple (2)

Let's go discover Easter Island from the inside out ! Named Rapa Nui by the natives, Easter island is a small piece of land in the middle of the Pacific ocean, well known for its impressive statues : the Moais. Scientists are still trying to figure out how those were erected but what's certain is that they served a ritual purpose for the natives.

I invite you to come scour the island on foot, on horseback and however you want !
