We spent 2 full and 2 half days with Yoyo and he was beyond spectacular. He exceeded our expectations in every way, from his knowledge of the island, his patience with our family (which included two teenagers and two seniors), to even the food recommendations. Your company was top notch and everything about the experience was first class.

We spent the most amazing two full days with Tokerau on the Moai Monuments and Historic Pathways Tours. Tokerau is a local Rapa Nui, born and raised, with education in tourism. He was effervescent and passionate about his heritage, and eager to share his knowledge and experiences of his homeland. He carefully planned out our itinerary each day, from timing the site visits to avoid crowds and recognized weather patterns so we could see the best parts before the rain approached. He also arranged the tour in a chronological order so it would be easier for us to follow and digest the island’s rich history. Tokerau encouraged questions and explained everything in such detail, not only the history, but the significance of each maoi period, to various types of volcanic stones, to the restoration process. We were thoroughly impressed with the breadth & depth of his knowledge. At the end of the two days, we felt we were in the company of a friend, and not just on a typical tour. Also a shoutout to Paulina and YoYo. Paulina organized the tours for us, with immediate responses to all questions asked. Excellent communication - kept us informed with the schedule to Stargazing and Sunrise tours as the island weather is unpredictable in winter. Paulina also proactively emailed me the required forms to enter the island ahead of time so we need not have to scramble at the airport. YoYo - our excellent guide to the Sunrise Tour. He made an extra stop for us to see the stars and constellations ahead of the sunrise, because he knew we had missed the Stargazing tour for 2 consecutive nights due to the rain. YoYo not only showed us the best vantage point to capture the Tongariki sunrise and away from the crowd, he also knew the exact timing and the angle in which the sun rose! Rapa Nui is magical. If you ever have the opportunity to visit the island, I highly recommend the professional and knowledgeable team of Tokerau, YoYo and Paulina! They are simply the best on the island.

Amazing tour company and tour guide Yoyo was absolutely fantastic! I did the Sunrise at Ahu Tongariki tour and couldn’t be any happier. My tour ended up being completely private with just the tour guide, he provided so much information about the place, recommended some nice photo spots and walked around with me. He then let me spend some time and watch the sunset on my own to feel the real spirit of the place. Pick up and drop off on time and overall experience very smooth.

I had 5 days on Rapa Nui and ended up booking 4 tours with this company. As a solo traveler who doesn't speak fluent Spanish, I enjoyed both tour guides with Yoyo and Tokerau, who are both natively from Rapa Nui, and speaks English that explained everything very well to me. This company organizes tour with small size group, so you can spend more time chatting with them about anything on this island. Through them, I not only learned the rich history of Rapa Nui, but also felt deeply connected to this island and its culture while I was there. The moai monument tour was definitely the highlight by visiting Tongariki and Rano Rarakou, but I also highly recommend the hidden treasure tour that no other tour company on the island will take you to see those places. The star gazing tour and sunrise tour would depend by the weather to have the best experience, but Green Island Tour knows the best places to take picture, and organized these tour experience very well. The star gazing tour is another 10/10 because very few companies on the island would organize such tour in the evening, and it left me with an unforgettable memory about that night by the Anakena beach, and seeing the beautiful milky way with my eyes. Last but not the least, the communication is outstanding, Paulina organized everything well and made sure my tour runs smoothly every day. I'm very satisfied choosing this company for my Rapa Nui experience.

Booked the ‘Moai Monuments’ and ‘Historic Pathways’ to see the main sights. The tour guides (Heki and Patrice respectively) were very friendly and knowledgeable about the subject matter, making the whole experience a delight. I also booked the ‘Tongariki Sunrise’ tour which was fantastic, despite the cloudy weather. The same weather conditions unfortunately killed my chances of going on a stargazing tour! However, this was refunded very quickly so cannot fault the company there. I would like to also give a shoutout to Paulina, who always responded in an instant to help book my tours, keep me informed and make sure any issues were ironed out quickly, such as the refund for the cancelled stargazing tour. All in all, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Green Island Tours - Mauruuru and iorana! P.S. To anyone who leaves things ridiculously last minute like me, I advise you not to take that approach if considering any of the day trek options, as although GI Tours saved my bacon with the main sights, there was no availability for the Poike and North Coast treks, which I regret missing out on.

Look no further than Green Island Tours to help you explore this magical island. I had a wonderful experience over two days and really got the most out of my visit. My guide Yoyo was exceptionally knowledgeable and professional, and really made my trip so memorable. A huge thank you to all of the team. Strongly recommended!

Stargazing got cancelled because of the sky is too bright in full moon, so I got changed to a night hiking tour on Terevaka, and it turned out to be a very nice experience, and my guide Yoyo also explained some of the stars we saw on that night.

Green Island Tours stayed in touch by email, then WhatsApp throughout the booking and pick-up process. Very smooth and professional. I special-booked my own early morning star-gazing itinerary with them. Chris Araki was a wonderful guide throughout. The tour company handles the special early-hours permission to be inside the parks, but the visitor still needs to purchase the general parks ticket nonetheless. I went to Ahu Tahai to watch the moon set into the ocean behind the Moai, then up to Ahu Akivi for amazing Milky Way shots. I highly recommend this company.

The tour covered all the highlights of the island. We were given ample time at each location to view the monuments. Our guide, Yoyo, was extremely knowledgeable and always happy to assist us with all aspects of the tour.

We booked almost every tour available for 6 days. Poike tour was a highlight. Stargazing tour was amazing. So many sights to see and the tour guides were all very knowledgeable. You really benefit from their knowledge and will miss the hidden treasures without them!

Just AMAZING! Our guide Yo-Yo, native to Rapa Nui with local knowledge and history, brought our tours to life. The first day, we did the full day of the island tour. It went so well, that we booked the stargazing to sunrise tour for the next morning . Both tours are not to be missed. Professional, coordinated and well informed. 👍👍 HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

We had a wonderful time on the Moai Monuments and Historic Pathways tours. The tours were both small--just my husband and I and one other traveler. Our guide Yoyo was fantastic! He provided insightful commentary on the numerous sites we visited and arranged the tour so we got to the sites with great lighting for pictures, but somehow without too many crowds! He also took a ton of pictures for us. Yoyo was a true ambassador for the island. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Green Island Tours. Iorana!

Our itinerary with Green Island tours was: Dec 16: Arrival / 3pm Rano Kau crater walk short version followed by Orongo & Ahu Akivi Dec 17th: Full day moai monuments tour 9am / Stargazing tour 20:00 Dec 18th: North Coast Hike 7am Dec 19th: Sunrise at Tongariki 6am, drop off at hotel/town centre for breakfast. I cannot rate the company highly enough. Punctual, professional, great communication. Sadly the skies were a bit cloudy for stargazing but they offered us a prompt refund. Absolutely recommended for a great experience of Rapa Nui.

The tours provided were informative and went at my pace which tends to be more on the quicker side. They are very accommodating and made sure to cover all the sights that I had expected. They put together a great itinerary for two days of solo tours including an awesome sunrise tour watching the sunrise behind the 15 Moai. Excellent communication.

We did 2 full day tours and a sunrise private tour with Green Island Tours. We had a great experience! It was very well organized, our guides were super nice and knowledgeable, accommodating to the needs of all of us. The size of the group was perfect and the rhythm of the days was perfect. We definitely recommend their services!
