Your Galapagos adventure begins the moment you land at Baltra Airport, where our team welcomes you and escorts you to the lush highlands of Santa Cruz.

At El Chato Reserve, you’ll witness giant tortoises roaming freely in their natural habitat — a truly humbling first encounter with the islands’ legendary wildlife. You’ll also explore dramatic lava tunnels formed by ancient volcanic flows.

After lunch in the highlands, continue to Puerto Ayora and settle into your hotel for a relaxing evening.

Highlight: Your first close encounter with wild giant tortoises.

Your morning Bay Tour reveals the hidden gems around Puerto Ayora. Snorkel in calm turquoise waters where sea lions glide effortlessly and sea turtles drift below the surface. Visit scenic coastal sites shaped by volcanic forces and the passage of time.

In the afternoon, walk the beautiful trail to Tortuga Bay, one of the most stunning beaches in the Galapagos. Feel the soft white sand under your feet and take in the untouched beauty that makes these islands world-famous.

Highlight: Snorkeling with playful sea lions.

An early start leads you across the ocean to Isabela Island, the largest and most volcanic island in the archipelago.

Visit the giant tortoise breeding center and the island’s peaceful wetlands, where flamingos often paint the lagoons pink.

Later, explore Las Tintoreras, a surreal lava islet where white-tip reef sharks rest in narrow channels. During your snorkeling session, you may encounter sea lions, marine iguanas, colorful fish, and — if luck is on your side — Galapagos penguins.

Return to Santa Cruz in the afternoon.

Highlight: Snorkeling in one of the most wildlife-rich sites in the Galapagos.

Before your departure, stop at Los Gemelos, twin volcanic craters surrounded by misty Scalesia forest — a peaceful final moment to absorb the magic of the islands.

Transfer to Baltra Airport for your flight home… carrying memories that will stay with you for a lifetime.

Highlight: A serene goodbye to the Galapagos highlands.
