  My wife and I went on a 7 hours Private Tour around the island in a private group of 10 people in total. And it was a really great experience from booking to the end of the tour. I shall give you some points as to why you can comfortably book a tour with Green Island Tours: 1) I booked through TA, but got quickly in direct email/whatsapp contact with Pauline and she was indeed "on her toes" - quick, friendly, service minded, flexible, straight....exactly as you want your travel agent to be. 2) The payment was extremely flexible - paid a deposit via PayPal - worked perfectly. The balance should be paid in cash on day of travel, but unfortunately I did not have enough cash. So I asked Pauline if I could transfer the funds via PayPal in advance or pay with credit card. Pauline's comment was something like: "Don't worry - if the credit card machine does not work on the day, you just pay afterwards via PayPal" (this is what I mean with "flexible" and "service minded"). 3) On the day of travel we (and the rest of the group) were severely delayed (should have been there 9am) caused by circumstances totally beyond the control of Green Island Tours. But yet again: no problem "if you come at 11 we are there, if you come at 12 we are waiting for you" 4) The guide Yoyo is just a great guy - full stop!! Very friendly, well-informed, qualified and not least service minded. We had one person with reduced mobility in the group, and he was just there for the 93-year old lady without in any way sacrificing the attention to the rest of the group. We had a wonderful day with Green Island Tours and especially Yoyo. My very best recommendation to the company and the people there.

  We did two full tour days. Ludo was our guide for both days. Ludo was an exceptional guide! His knowledge about the island's history and his passion for the culture made it a truly memorable experience. Our expectations were exceeded ten times over! Pauline at Green Island Tours provided great communication and kept us up to date on all the details. You won't go wrong booking with Green Island Tours!

  Green Island Tours did an amazing time setting up three days of sightseeing on the island. They were incredibly communicative and did everything they could to tailor the trip to my requests. The guides were also incredibly accommodating and knowledgeable, unveiling the history of the island as we went along.

  Green Island Tours was a pleasure to work with from the correspondences with Paulina to the day of the tour - coordinating our disembarkation from the cruise ship to meeting our guide on the pier. The tour was fantastic; Yoyo, our guide, an Easter Island native, knew everything there was to know about the island and imparted his knowledge and insights in a fun and informative way. The price was very competitive. It was an excellent value. Highly recommended!

  The communication with Paulina, the administrator of the company, was excellent from the start. When we arrived on the island and found that the heat and humidity were causing problems for my health, she quickly and efficiently rearranged the tours to take advantage of the cool weather in the morning. Yoyo, our guide for two of the excursions, is incredibly knowledgeable, but also a kind and funny man - the type you'd want to have as your friend. I learned as much from him in our time together as I did reading several books about the island. He was also a lead performer in one of the Tapati festival events and is known and respected all over the island. The Stargazing tour with Marc and his partner was beyond words. It was again a mix of deep knowledge about the stars, navigation, and Polynesian history and a true passion for those subjects. Unexpectedly, they sang and played the guitar for us beautifully. The picture they took of us at Anakena Beach at midnight looks like it was from a professional photo shoot. That was possible because of their attention to detail concerning the position of the moon and the time of its rising. On the tour, we saw the Milky Way with the naked eye, Venus, Jupiter and some of its moons, and star clusters through their telescope. All in all, it was an awesome experience that I'd do again given the chance.

  La Isla de Pascua es un lugar soñado. Las excuriones que realizamos son todas interesantes. La gente a cargo d elas mismas son muy amables y simpaticas. Muy recomendable esa mágica isla.

  We booked two days of private tours (myself and my wife). Tiko, our guide, was excellent. A native of Rapa Nui, he was able to answer every question we had about the things he was showing us as well as just about anything else. The car used was comfortable and capable, and the flexibility by Tiko and Green Island Tours was very useful to make the most of our two days on the island. We also did Stargazing with Marc. This was a shared activity and was hugely informative and enjoyable and we even got a great picture go along with it!

  Overall, our experience with Green tours was terrific. Easter island is a special place and it’s important that you have the right guide to offer a perspective beyond what you see. We signed up with Green tours for multiple full days small group tours and a private tour. My experience with them was very professional marked with clear communication. The most important part for me was their guide - YoYo. He is a native, with incredible experience of the place, fluent with English, most importantly knows the art of story telling. Extremely conscious of the elderly in the group, and equally enthusiastic to answer all our questions. Green tours Co is definitely not the cheapest option on the island - but I did experience a strong sense of professionalism. You could actually hire private guides after you get down there, but I cannot speak for their fluency of English or knowledge.

  Tuhii was amazing! She provided us adequate information and answered all of our questions throughout our tour. We truly enjoyed our time with her that we decided to book additional activities and spent several more days with her husband, Marc, learning about the history, culture and people of Rapa Nui. We greatly appreciated their honesty and willingness to share information regarding the island. Pauline was also amazing! She was extremely communicative, informative and kind via email and text. We cannot recommend this company enough. Thank you Tuhii, Marc and Pauline for making our visit truly memorable!
