    This place is so magical. I had a chance to travel here because the ship I am working on had been here. It was a great opportunity since not a lot of people can go here since it’s very remote in the Pacific Ocean. The locals did a great job in maintaining the untouched beauty of the place

    Arrange tourists to go to Easter Island for a 4-day, 3-night tour. If you can only see one Moai statue, you must choose Ahu Tongariki, which is the most spectacular, famous and representative group of Moai statues on the island. The 15 statues here are of different heights, weights and skinny, each one is unique, perhaps vividly restoring the image characteristics of the aborigines. In addition to its scale advantage, Ahu Tongariki, located in the east of Easter Island, is also the best place to watch the sunrise and the starry sky. When the morning light passes through the gaps between the statues and casts their shadows into the distance, the shock of this moment is indescribable and can only be felt in person.
