Easter Island, rent a car or tour?
I am a little worried I won't be able to keep up with the pace of a tour group and may be rushed at the sights in Easter Island if I join a tour. If I rent a car is it easy to get around with a map or easy to get lost? I mean, are the roads signposted well. Is parking on the island easy? I only have two days, three nights on Easter island so I want to see the sigths within this time. I don't want to spend time on the beaches.
Any advice will be appreciated. Thank you.

Thank you Huentetu. A private tour is a good suggestion I forgot to mention in my op that the private tours I've checked are US$280 - US$300 per day. I find that too expensive for a solo traveller, I will need two days of sightseeing and that'll cost a lot.
Do fodorites have any recommendations for a tour company in Easter Island that can provide a private tour which is good and reasonably priced?
