Great tour! - We had a great morning on the water with Atamu. He ensured a really enjoyable cruise around to the Motu rocks, telling stories of the ocean, sea creatures, island life and, of course, the famous Birdman Race. When he heard my husband is a keen fisherman, he dropped in two trolling lines. No luck with the fishing but still a terrific trip.

A formidable ride - I almost died of fear but it was an incredible experience. It looked like the blue waves were going to hit the boat, but the little boat just rolled and danced on the waves lol. The boat pilot, an experienced and calm young man. The guide explained everything that appeared around. We sailed around the birdman ritual islet and near the Rano Kau volcano, I saw beautiful corals and fish through the glass floor of the boat

Nice tour - This tour is a great addition to any other activities you might do on Easter Island. The guides take you to a place where the birdman cult activities are taking place, and the views are amazing. Also, you get to do snorkeling and fishing with your guide. I give 4 stars instead of 5 because of two reasons: 1) The description stated that the tour would be in English, but the guide (otherwise a fantastic person) only spoke Spanish. 2) The description stated that the tour would be private, but I was in the boat with 2 other people. Not a problem, but if the tour is not 100% private please do not label it like that.
