Once our group is assembled, it’s just a short hop to these amazing islands, where we’ll see all the wonderful wildlife of the Galapagos. Everything will be arranged for you on this Galapagos tour from Guayaquil, meaning you can relax and focus on exploring the islands, alongside the marine turtles, penguins, sea lions and more that call the Galapagos home.

When we arrive, we’ll explore the circumference of the massive, lava-filled crater, a caldera that is over six miles across at its widest point. We’ll also have breathtaking views from the crater’s edge, b...

Day 5: Santa Cruz Island and Charles Darwin Research Station
Today we head to Santa Cruz Island, the second largest island in the archipelago. On Santa Cruz we can go to the highlands, where wonderful giant tortoises have settled. We can also see marine iguanas, Sally Lightfoot crabs and white tip reef sharks, which we can observe at Tortuga Bay, and flamingos at Playa Garrapatero.
Later we’ll visit the Charles Darwin Research Station, a short walk from the town of Puerto Ayora. Here you can learn more about conservati...
Day 6: Flight Back To Guayaquil
Sadly, today is our last day on the Galapagos Islands. After breakfast and a few final photos of the nearby sea lions, we’ll transfer to Baltra’s airport in time to catch the flight back to the mainland and Guayaquil, where our amazing six-day Galapagos adventure comes to an end.
