The programme

Our Jeep adventure takes us to the Ranu Raraku archaeological site. Researchers consider it the cradle of the moai civilization and, for visitors, it is one of the most exclusive and mysterious sites in the world.
Upon arrival, we are immediately enchanted by the incredible scenery that opens up before our eyes * an ancient volcanic crater that was once used by the Rapa Nui population to extract and carve the enigmatic monoliths.
Scattered around the grassy land, there are almost 400 moai statues * their different shapes and positions are perfect to understand the various carving stages. Some are still attached to the rock, others are semi-carved or completed and others are tilted or erected.
