Overview

Walk alongside giant tortoises, swim in crystal clear waters, and discover the wildlife that makes Galapagos an extraordinary place. For four days, we take you to know the best of Santa Cruz with a complete program that includes hotel, breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and the itinerary activities. We take care of the organization; you enjoy every landscape.

Feel the white sand of Tortuga Bay, cool down between the volcanic rock walls of Las Grietas, and explore German Beach. The hikes will bring you closer to the island's flora and fauna, while the lava tunnels and Los Gemelos will reveal its fascinating volcanic origin.

You will meet the emblematic giant tortoises on private ranches and visit the Charles Darwin Scientific Station to get closer to the conservation of this unique destination.

An experience that combines beaches, nature, and discovery, with everything coordinated from your arrival and an excellent value for money.
