Ciao, I write you from Italy (it is always better for me to say so I can use my bad english..., sorry).I just bought the air ticket for a trip to Chile, from 8 Nov. to 4 Dec. The first question I have before starting the detailed planning of the trip is: IS IT WORTH TO GO FOR 4 / 5 DAYS TO EASTERN ISLAND? I think that it is a unique place and our could be a unique opportunity BUT it is "not for free" so this is why I REALLY appreciate some comment / suggestion / idea.... GRAZIE! Arrivederci

Ciao! We were there for 3 nights and loved it - highly recommend it and think it is worth the cost.

I'd second Elizabeth_S recommendation - we visited for 3 nights last August and really enjoyed our time there.

We stayed at the inexpensive but pleasant Tau'raa Hotel and booked day trips and a dawn visit to Tongariki through the hotel. Everything in the main town is within walking distance of the hotel.
