A tiny piece of land in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, which is known to us as Easter Island<\/a>, can safely claim the title of the most exotic and mysterious place on the plane<\/a>t. The main attraction of the island, which brought him worldwide fame and, at the same time, became one of the biggest mysteries of mankind, are huge stone idols. And while scientists are arguing about the true origin of the statues and their purpose, we will talk about how to get to Easter Island from Russia faster, cheaper and easier.<\/p>\n

Why you should visit<\/a> Easter Island<\/a><\/h2>\n

For the majority of people, this region is a real mystery. Accordingly, the level of interest<\/a> in its attractions<\/a>, which are the main decoration of the region, is constantly growing. But stone giants are far from the only thing this piece of land is famous for<\/a>. Many travel<\/a>ers come here also to enjoy the extraordinary cuisine and soak up the most deserted beaches<\/a> in the world<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Especially popular is the beach called Anakena, which is not modestly glorified by the locals. Rumor has it that there are very beautiful sunsets and sunrises, and the water can change color several times a day. There are several cafes right on the beach where you can enjoy original sea<\/a>food and fresh fish dishes. Tuna steaks, dishes from freshly caught fish and potatoes, as well as shish kebabs prepared according to special recipes are in special esteem here. Sometimes it see<\/a>ms that the coast has a great resemblance to the resorts of the Black Sea<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How to<\/a> get on your own<\/a><\/h2>\n

If you have heard a lot about the mysterious land and have long dreamed of visiting Easter Island, we bring to your attention an overview<\/a> of the best ways to do this. We note right away that for tour<\/a>ists from Russia such a trip will cost a tidy sum, so be prepared for the fact that this vacation<\/a> will be the most expensive. The final cost of travel<\/a> is affected by the huge distance that every Russian wanderer has to overcome by air.<\/p>\n

Air travel<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

It is easy to guess that you can get to the island, which is located<\/a> in the open ocean, either by water or by plane. Moreover, you will have to use several flights so that your foot finally sets foot on the “promised land”. There is no direct plane from Moscow or St. Petersburg<\/a> that would take tourists<\/a> directly to the local airport.<\/p>\n

Since the region belongs to Chilean territory, the final destination of the first part<\/a> of your air flight will be the Chilean capital or Lima airport. Direct flights<\/a> from Moscow to Santiago are especially popular, from the airport of which it is easiest to continue your journey by air.<\/p>\n

The number and frequency of flights depends on the seas<\/a>on. For example, tour<\/a>ists prefer to fly from Moscow to Santiago in November, December and January. For a one-way ticket during this period, you will have to pay from 45 to 59 thousa<\/a>nd rubles. But, if you buy a round-trip ticket right away, then the cost of the second one will cost almost half as much. During the period of minimal popularity of flights in this direction, significant discounts<\/a> are observed. A ticket can be bought for no more than 38 thousa<\/a>nd rubles, although a round-trip flight in cost will hardly differ from the price in the peak seas<\/a>on.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

Planes fly six days a week, which is very convenient for those who are used to planning their vacation<\/a> by the hour. The road will take from 18.5 to 19.5 hours. Please note that there is only one airport in Santiago – Arturo Merino Benitez, so you should plan your further route<\/a> from it. You can also choose<\/a> an alternative flight method, which includes one transfer<\/a>. In particular, you can transfer to the cabin of another aircraft in Paris<\/a>, Madrid<\/a>, Amsterdam<\/a> and Miami airport. Depending on the chosen route<\/a>, the road will take you from 19 hours 25 minutes to 26 hours 20 minutes. The cost of the flight will range from 55 to 108 thousand rubles.<\/p>\n

As soon as you arrive at the main Chilean airport, you will need to transfer to a plane that will take you to Easter Island. The frequency of flights depends on the season, and you will have to spend no more than 5 hours in the sky.<\/p>\n

Yacht or ship<\/h3>\n

An alternative to traveling<\/a> from the Chilean mainland to the island is a yacht or cruise<\/a> ship, sometimes passing through the mysterious region. If you are lucky, you will be able to board a ship in one of the ports of Chile. Or you can hire a yacht specially to see with your own eyes what this small piece of land is so famous for. In any case, the trip cannot be called a budget trip, and not every tourist will be able to afford it.<\/p>\n

We hope that you will definitely find the best solution on how to get<\/a> to Easter Island at minimal cost and put one more “tick” in the notebook with a list<\/a> of places<\/a> you have visited.<\/p>\n
