Itinerary of your trip 5 Days Galapagos Expedition Tour

  • Day 1 Welcome To Santa Cruz Island: Highlands & Charles Darwin Research Station
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Welcome To Santa Cruz Island: Highlands & Charles Darwin Research Station

      Welcome to the beautiful Galapagos Islands! 


      After arriving at Baltra Airport, your guide will be waiting for you to take you to Santa Cruz Island.

      You will be amazed to see giant tortoises in the wild (in their natural habitat) at a farm in these highlands, then continue to the port in Puerto Ayora to check into the hotel.

      In the afternoon, visit the Charles Darwin Station, where scientists from all over the world meet and work together on environmental projects such as water analysis, animal protection, effects of tourism on nature, etc., and the most famous place to see Giant Tortoises in the Galapagos where the animals are raised before being released into nature. The actual name of the tortoise area here is the โ€œFausto Llerenaโ€ Breeding Center, named after the Galapagos National Park ranger who cared for Lonesome George. This is the best place in the Galapagos to view numerous different species and see how their tortoiseshell shapes have evolved differently to match the terrain and vegetation of the islands they are native to.

  • Day 3 Hiking The Sierra Negra Volcano
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Hiking The Sierra Negra Volcano

      The majestic Sierra Negra Volcano will occupy todayโ€™s agenda.

      Our adventure starts with a journey from Puerto Villamil to the beginning of the trail. Once there, we will prepare our backpacks and start our walk through the relatively young woods, which suffer from constant geological changes.

      Youโ€™ll do a six-hour roundtrip hike to its summit, from where youโ€™ll get to see the second-largest volcanic crater in the world. Walk around spectacular lava landscapes, taking in the northern volcanoes in Isabela and Fernandina Islands. 

      During your climb, make sure to be on the lookout for the unique vegetation that inhabits the area. 

      Your finishing point is the edge of the Sierra Negra Volcanoโ€™s crater, this volcano is still active. Once at the edge of the crater, you will have spectacular views of the crater and the volcanoes that surround it. The circumference of the crater is huge, with a diameter of almost 10 km along with its widest point.

      Youโ€™ll have some free time after you get back to Isabela Island. If you still have energy, you can head to a beach or snorkel at Concha Perla.

In the shallow waters, you can find tropical fish, rays, turtles, sea horses, and white-tipped reef sharks! And keep your eyes open for penguins on the rocks.
