Hidden in the South Pacific Ocean, 2,200 miles off the coast of Chile and 1,300 miles west of Tahiti lies Rapa Nui, also known as Easter Island, one of the most isolated places on Earth. Despite its remote location, Rapa Nui has long been a destination for travellers who want to explore its fascinating culture and see its famous Moai statues, the sheer size of which have to be seen to be believed. Once you arrive, you'll be rewarded with beautiful yet mystical surroundings, filled with friendly people and stunning natural beauty. The story of Rapa Nui is one of tragedy and triumph. The island was
once home to a tribe that produced the Moai statues, however, by 1877, there were only 111 native inhabitants remaining - mostly due to disease brought by the Europeans. Rapa Nui holidays are an incredible way to explore this authentic part of the world and learn more about the history on a tour of the island. You'll see some of the most famous Moai statues and learn about their significance to this amazing culture. The island is home to many ancient traditions, including dance performances and songs that you can experience during your visit.
