About your trip

This extraordinary adventure takes us to two of the most intriguing and unique places.  The world’s two great Islands of Mystery and Legend lost in the remotest South Pacific – Easter Island and Pitcairn Island. We begin in Santiago, Chile and fly off to Easter Island where we see the giant ancient statues placed around the Island.  After we are finished, we fly to Tahiti to take our ship to  Pitcairn Island -- the same island in the story of Mutiny on the Bounty!  Fletcher Christian and the Bounty Mutineers discovered and settled on an uninhabited island in remotest Polynesia – Pitcairn Island – so remote you can only sail to it, and where the descendants of the Mutineers and their Tahitian wives still live to this day.  We will go there by ship and be welcomed on the island for our exploration there.
