is it possible to stay in a hotel and not a hostel

Yes, we can book a 3* hotel for you.

can i reserve this booking until get flight confirmation

Sure, you can book the tour and then send us your flight information once you have it.

Could you please provide the cost of available additional tours / optional excursions (e.g., half-day or full-day activities not included in the base package)? Are there recommended excursions outside the itinerary that many travelers do (e.g., sunset tours, archaeological site visits, cultural shows, etc.)? If so, how much do those typically cost? Is the airport shuttle from the airport to the accommodation and back to the airport included?

the accommodation options available on the island are of a simple category. The hostel is quite basic, and the hotel option is considered budget. If you are looking for a higher level of comfort, we would be happy to explore better category accommodation options and send you a new quotation. Alternatively, we can prepare a proposal that includes transfers and tours, allowing you to choose the accommodation that best suits your preferences.

Is it possible to travel from Santiago for 1 person? I travel alone and would like to stay 4 days/3 nights.

We can make a personalized version of this trip where you stay 3 nights and 4 days. Would you need accommodation in Santiago pre and post Easter Island as well? In Easter Island, would you like to stay in a 3* hotel?

Would you offer a discounted 4 day tour if I have my own accommodation?

yes, we will send you the program and rate just for the tours withour accommodation.

I am looking for accommodations for that period of time or for a complete tour. What do you recommend?

We can absolutely add an additional night of accommodation to the itinerary. As for an extra tour, we will suggest options, but first, we would just need to check availability. In the meantime, feel free to let us know if you have something specific in mind for that extra time, whether you'd like to continue exploring the island, enjoy a relaxing experience, or add something a bit different.

Which date would be better to choose? 18/19th tour?

The package is a 3 nights trip. So you can chose when to arrive to Easter Island. If your flight to Hanga Roa is 18th to 22nd July, you ca ask for an extra night to make it 4 nights and have a free day to do as you please.

Do you pair up single same sex travelers to the same room, I don't mind. If not, how much you charge for single supplement in Canadian dollars? Roughly how much it costs to fly from Santiago Chile to Hanga Roa in Canadian dollars?

Generally most offer dorms for both men and women. We can ask for them to arrange you with someone of the same sex, but it will not be guaranteed. The cost difference between shared dorm and private room variates from accommodation to accommodation. We don't include flights in our prices. But you can look it up online and see which fits best for your trip. We use USD dollars and you can easily do the online convertion to Canadian dollars yourself.

Do the single private rooms have en suite bath or shower and WC?

In hotel option is included. Not always in hostel option.
