Rapa Nui and Chilean Patagonia in 8 Days
This small-group trip combines two very different sides of Chile: the moai sites of Rapa Nui and the open landscapes around Torres del Paine and Puerto Natales. On Easter Island, the program focuses on the places most closely linked to local history and tradition, with time in Hanga Roa and visits to key archaeological sites such as Rano Raraku, Anakena, Orongo, Rano Kau and Ana Te Pahu. In Patagonia, the route continues through Punta Arenas and Puerto Natales, with time for the Mylodon Cave Natural Monument and Torres del Paine National Park, including Lake Pehoé. The trip is supported by local guides and shared services in each destination. It is suitable for travelers looking for a guided overview rather than a complex independent route.
