Dear fellow explorer,

Imagine stepping into a living laboratory of evolution, where each island is a world unto itself, teeming with unique creatures. This is the Galápagos, a place where nature’s marvels unfold before your eyes, inviting you to observe, understand, and protect.

Our journey through Santa Cruz and Isabela Islands is more than a vacation—it’s an expedition into one of our planet’s most precious ecosystems. As we walk in the footsteps of Charles Darwin, we’ll witness the delicate balance of life that inspired his theories.

On Santa Cruz, Puerto Ayora welcomes us with discovery. The Charles Darwin Research Station houses the island’s famous giant tortoises, some over a century old, carrying the Galápagos legacy in their weathered shells. Observing the meticulous care given to baby tortoises underscores the vital importance of conservation efforts.

Venturing into El Chato Giant Tortoise Reserve, we encounter these gentle giants in their natural habitat. Standing quietly, watching a tortoise slowly make its way through the lush vegetation, connects us to a time long past.

Isabela, the largest island, displays volcanic power. In Puerto Villamil, history and nature meet at the poignant Wall of Tears, a 25-meter high monument built by prisoners in the mid-20th century, reflecting humans’ complex relationship with this extraordinary environment.

Explore the Galápagos marine world in Tintoreras Bay, snorkeling with sea lions, turtles, and penguins. Our itinerary includes hiking to Sierra Negra, a world’s largest active caldera, and descending into sulfur mines with vibrant hues and rising steam. For an unforgettable experience, visit Los Túneles, a maze of lava formations with underwater tunnels and arches, where you’ll encounter sea turtles, reef sharks, and tropical fish. Remember, every step and animal encounter is part of a delicate ecosystem that needs our understanding and protection. The Galápagos Islands are a call to action, a living reminder of our planet’s responsibility. Pack curiosity, respect, and a willingness to change, gaining a new perspective on our place in nature.
