Enjoy a unique experience on Easter Island, where ancient history, Rapa Nui culture, and the night sky come together in a fascinating way.

We'll start by visiting Ahu Huri A Urenga, a ceremonial site of great cultural importance. Here, you'll learn about some of the history and traditions associated with this place, while we share a few stories that are part of the ancestral memory of Rapa Nui.
We'll then head to Anakena, one of the most iconic beaches on the island, surrounded by history and natural beauty.

✨ The Night of the Stars
When night falls, the most special part of the experience begins.
We'll get away from the lights of Hanga Roa and find a quiet, dark spot to gaze at the sky, just as the ancient Rapa Nui people did.
This experience does not use telescopes, modern astronomical gear, or artificial lighting to observe the stars. The idea is precisely to disconnect from technology and allow our eyes to naturally adapt to the darkness.
Lying down or simply gazing at the sky in silence, you'll be able to see the stars, constellations, and the immensity of the universe with the naked eye, while listening to traditional Rapa Nui stories and knowledge about the stars, navigation, and our ancestors' relationship with the sky.
It's not just about looking at the stars. It's about experiencing the night in a simpler, more authentic way, closer to how our ancestors may have experienced it.
No telescopes.
No lights.
No light pollution.
Just you, the darkness, the stars, and the stories of Rapa Nui.
An intimate, magical, and traditional experience, perfect for couples, families, and travelers looking to connect with the island's culture and nature in a different way.
