EASTER ISLAND MADE EASY!
Our recent trip to remote Easter Island was the third vacation we've organized though Karolina Guilcapi of Yampu. The island comprises only 63 square miles, so you might think it would be easy to do things on your own, but there's much to see, and accommodation alternatives, that should be left to experts who have been there. What's great about Yampu is that they customize your trip based on your interests, schedule and budget. We had no idea what island excursions to schedule, so all those decisions were left up to Karolina who, as always, did a great job setting up the four day itinerary, selecting a hotel, and retaining a guide. Everything from the flights to and from Santiago (arranged by Yampu) went smoothly as planned, with their people always on time to meet us and take us on our next daily adventure. We even had a minor incident with being overcharged at a local market that our guide promptly corrected. If you prefer travel outside of group tours, but like my wife and I are inclined to depend on people "in the know" for advice, recommendations and reservations, we don't think you can do any better than Yampu. They are indeed a five star operation!
