Three Islands Tour

This 5-day Galapagos Islands tour visits three of the archipelago's most rewarding islands: Santa Cruz, Isabela and Tintoreras. The trip is paced to mix structured exploration with quiet time, so you experience the highlights without rushing through them. On Santa Cruz, you'll visit twin volcano craters, the famous Darwin Research Station, and the highlands where giant tortoises move slowly through the misty forest. You'll learn about ecosystems, micro evolution and biodiversity from local guides who treat these subjects as living science, not textbook entries. From there, walks lead down to the stunning Turtle Beach, where sea turtles and marine iguanas rest in the sun. The town of Puerto Ayora is your base — wander its local markets, walk along the harbor, and take pictures with the exotic animals that share the streets. The trip continues by boat to Isabela, the largest island in the Galapagos group, where your guide will show you the best spots to see blue-footed boobies, elegant Galapagos penguins and big sea lions. After the island hike, swim in the clear blue water of Tintoreras Bay, home to sea turtles, sea lions, iguanas and rays — one of the easiest snorkel sites in the archipelago. The tour includes airport-hotel taxi service. After breakfast on day 5, your taxi will return you to the airport.
