Upon arrival at Baltra Airport, our team will welcome you and transfer you across the island of Santa Cruz. On the way, you’ll stop at a Tortoise Ranch in the lush highlands, where giant tortoises roam freely in their natural habitat – a true Galápagos highlight.

After settling into your hotel in Puerto Ayora, your local contact will provide a detailed briefing and share recommendations on dining and activities. In the afternoon, enjoy free time to explore at your own pace. You may walk through the scenic Puerto Ayora Port, visit the Charles Darwin Research Station, or simply relax by the waterfront.
