Departure to the Galapagos Islands, arriving at Baltra airport, where a National Park-certified naturalist guide will welcome you. Your journey continues with a visit to North Seymour Island, showcasing the Galapagos' diverse wildlife, including blue-footed boobies, frigate birds, sea lions, and marine iguanas.
Bartolome Island offers panoramic views of volcanic landscapes and Pinnacle Rock, with opportunities to see Galapagos penguins and sea lions. Sullivan Bay features a hike across a preserved Pahoehoe lava flow, with sightings of resilient pioneer plants and various seabirds.
Darwin Bay on Genovesa Island is a birdwatcher's paradise, hosting numerous boobies, gulls, and frigatebirds. El Barranco features cliffs ideal for nesting storm petrels and a significant population of short-eared owls, along with sightings of red-footed and Nazca boobies.
South Plazas Island is known for its extraordinary flora and a large colony of land iguanas. Santa Fe Island offers opportunities to explore a prickly pear cactus forest and observe unique land iguanas, sea turtles, and various endemic finches.
Your day starts with a trip to the highlands of San Cristobal Island, where you'll explore lush landscapes, encounter giant tortoises, and enjoy panoramic island views. The highlands contrast with the coast and are rich in bird species and endemic plants.
Next, visit Lobos Island, a serene islet separated from San Cristobal by a narrow channel. Here, you'll find playful sea lion pups and the vibrant frigatebirds. Keep an eye out for blue-footed boobies performing their courtship dance.
Visit the Galapagos History Center on the outskirts of Puerto Baquerizo to explore the challenges faced by early settlers and notable visitors like Charles Darwin.
Then, admire Kicker Rock, a towering volcanic formation off San Cristobal’s coast, home to seabirds like boobies and frigatebirds. While no landing is allowed, a boat circumnavigation offers stunning views.
Finally, transfer back to mainland Ecuador, reflecting on the unique wildlife and landscapes of the Galapagos Islands. Your journey concludes with lasting memories of this remarkable archipelago.
