The best sunrise ever! - Best experience, watching the sun come up behind the 15 Miao was spectacular! The cloud cover added to the impressiveness of the sunrise. Mamai is a wonderful guide; fresh local pineapple off of the tailgate at sunrise!! The best!

Excellent end to our trip. Flew out later that day. - Maiuru collected us promptly in his car. He took us on a non-bumpy road on time to see the sunrise and helped us choose a good place to stand. Maiuru also took lots of great photos of us which we really appreciate. On the way back, he even stopped so we could take photographs of the sheep farm and also the area where the banana leaf sledding takes place, Cerro nui. We were back at our hotel in time for breakfast after about 2-2.5 hours. Take warm layers and something waterproof to sit on if you wish. Maiuru was a great driver and guide, thank you.

Worth the wake up - Absolutely an amazing experience.one of the best sunrise views I've witnessed, its because of the history behind what you are looking and surrounded with. You definitely will feel the energy of the island. It's warm and welcoming.

Fantastic sunrise private tour - Fantastic private tour. Company very well organised. Tour guide punctual at 610 am for pickup. Nice and very cheerful guy. Got the whole car and tour for myself (as a private tour, not a group). Sunrise amazing, totally worth it.
