Take four or five days to sail through some of the most prized and beautiful islands on earth on this Galapagos Islands Explorer trip from Santa Cruz Island. Get up close to six different islands, each with their own unique features, and learn more about what drew Charles Darwin to the area that resulted in his most iconic book, The Origin of the Species.
Meet your friendly guide at the airport in Santa Cruz Island and travel by comfortable coach to your accommodation. Make a stop at the lava tunnels and sea turtle reserve. Then venture to historic Charles Darwin Station to learn more about this master of evolution’s work.
On day two, visit Tortuga Bay beach and enjoy a 40-minute stroll through this calming stretch of sand and shore. Enjoy a bit of free time before making your way to ‘La Loberia’, where you’ll spend the afternoon swimming with sea lions and snorkeling in crystal clear waters. Next, head to ‘Canal de Amor’ for breathtaking panoramic views. Finally, stop at ‘Playa de los Perros’ where rare marine iguanas thrive before returning to your Santa Cruz hotel.
Kick off day three with some serious island vibes. Set sail by yacht (weather and season permitting) to a handful of islands where you’ll spend the day exploring before returning to the comfort of your Santa Cruz hotel. Personalize your trip to meet your interests (details below) and book well in advance to ensure your spot on this favorite yacht.
The multi-day tour includes hotel stays in Santa Cruz, transport, tours and guides and breakfast and lunch aboard your yacht (served daily). A five day upgrade to the tour insures you’ll see all this archipelago has to offer.
