Description
The tour begins at Puna Pau quarry, where the traditional red stone headdresses (Pukao) for the moai statues were carved. These headdresses symbolize status and power in Rapa Nui culture.
Next, visit Ahu Akivi, a ceremonial platform featuring seven moai statues facing the ocean. These statues relate to the legend of seven explorers sent from the ancestral land of Hiva, significant in Rapa Nui history.
Afterward, explore Ana Te Pahu, one of the island’s largest volcanic caverns. This site served as a refuge and water source and offers insight into underground life and local legends.
The final stop is Ana Kakenga, an underground cavern connected directly to the sea. This location provides a unique viewpoint of the island rarely experienced by visitors.
