To and from Ecuador
Welcome to Ecuador. Upon your arrival, we will meet you at the airport and transfer you to a nearby hotel for your convenience. Depending on your arrival time, we will have a brief meeting to introduce ourselves and review the plans for the coming days. Your hotel will be conveniently located near the airport, ensuring an easy start for your early morning flight to the Galapagos.
Meals included: None
Our Galapagos adventure begins with a scenic flight from Quito to Santa Cruz Island. Upon arrival, we will head to a local restaurant to enjoy a delicious lunch. Later our certified naturalist guide from the Galapagos National Park will introduce the islands, outlining the activities and highlights you can expect during your journey.
We will leave the hotel to visit the Charles Darwin Research Station. There, you will learn about the important work being done to protect the unique ecosystems and wildlife of the islands. One of the highlights will be seeing the giant tortoises up close.
To conclude the day, you will have a rejuvenating welcome yoga session led by our skilled instructor. This practice will focus on releasing tension, deep breathing, and cultivating mindfulness. This immersive experience will set the tone for your journey, grounding you in the present and attuning you to the natural wonders surrounding you.
Meals included: Breakfast and lunch
We will start the day with a visit to Tortuga Bay, one of the most stunning beaches in the Galapagos. A scenic nature hike will lead us to its pristine shores, where you can explore a serene mangrove area. There, our experienced instructor will guide a revitalizing morning yoga session. Afterward, you will have time to enjoy a refreshing swim or stroll along the shore. For those seeking adventure, kayaking along the breathtaking coastline offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the island’s natural beauty.
After the visit, we will have a tasty lunch made with fresh, local ingredients. Later, we will take a fast boat to San Cristobal Island (2 hours). During the journey, you can admire beautiful views of the islands and the vast Pacific Ocean. Once we arrive in San Cristobal, we will check into the hotel.
We will finish the day having an equipment fitting to get everything ready for the exciting activities planned for the next days.
Meals included: Breakfast and lunch
We will start our day with a short walk from the hotel to Tijeretas, a beautiful cove with calm waters, perfect for snorkeling. Here, you can get used to your snorkeling gear and practice in the peaceful surroundings. The clear waters make it an ideal spot to explore vibrant marine life, including colorful fish and sea turtles.
After lunch, we will head to our next destination, La Loberia, known for its rich wildlife and picturesque views. Unlike Tijeretas, La Loberia has stronger waves, which can sometimes be moderately or even significantly more powerful, giving you a great chance to level up your snorkeling skills.
The area is full of marine life, including sea lions, marine iguanas, and occasionally manta rays. If you have had enough snorkeling, you can relax on the beach, soak up the sun, and be delighted by the beautiful surroundings. To conclude the day, we will gather for a refreshing yoga session overlooking the ocean. Guided by our instructor, this practice will help you unwind, stretch your muscles, and reflect on the day’s experiences.
Meals included: Breakfast and lunch
Today, we will experience one of the highlights of Galapagos. After breakfast, we will board our boat and head north to Kicker Rock, a remarkable rock formation that serves as a sanctuary for seabirds such as blue-footed boobies and phaetons, along with sea lions. The waters surrounding the rock are home to various marine life, including fish, sea turtles, rays, and hammerhead sharks. After snorkeling at Kicker Rock, we will have lunch on board and visit a quiet beach surrounded by clear waters and mangroves.
The boat is cozy and comfortable, accommodating a maximum of 12 people. We offer juice, coffee, and tea on board, and the captain and crew are always ready to assist. Access to and from the water is easy, with platforms at the stern, and floating devices are available.
Upon returning to town in the mid-afternoon, you will have time to relax. Later, you are invited to join an optional yoga session with our instructor. This session is thoughtfully designed to help you unwind, stretch out any tension from the day’s activities, and reconnect with your inner balance.
Meals included: Breakfast and lunch
We will visit El Junco Lagoon, San Cristobal's only freshwater lake, nestled in a volcanic crater and surrounded by lush highland vegetation. Here, you can spot frigatebirds bathing while taking a peaceful nature hike with impressive views.
Next, we will head to the giant tortoise breeding center, a natural environment that hosts around 100 tortoises in different stages of development. Along the path, you will encounter the island’s typical flora, which serves as food for the tortoises. This is a great opportunity to take photos of these famous creatures.
After lunch, we will visit Puerto Chino Beach, a beautiful spot with turquoise waters, accessible after a hike through dry forest. It is the perfect place to swim or relax on the beach.
As the day transitions into evening, we will gather for a rejuvenating yoga session led by our skilled instructor. Surrounded by the tranquil sounds of nature, this practice will focus on releasing tension, enhancing mindfulness, and fostering a deep connection with the serene environment.
Meals included: Breakfast and lunch
Today, we will experience another amazing part of the Galapagos. We will meet at the pier at 7:30 AM and embark on a two-hour boat journey to Española Island.
Upon arrival, you will be greeted by the endemic green-reddish marine iguanas and Galapagos sea lions at the small stone pier, which is used for dry landings with the zodiac. The hiking trail is 1.6 km long and offers sightings of many endemic species, including the Española mockingbird and the Galapagos hawk.
You may also spot various types of finches and blue-footed boobies. Between April and December, you may even witness the nesting of the waved albatross. We will also visit "El Soplador," a natural water fountain created by ocean waves hitting the island’s cliffs, forcing water through a lava tunnel and spraying up to 25 meters in the air.
After lunch, we will navigate to Bajo Gardner for a snorkeling experience. This small protrusion in the ocean is a prime location for marine life, offering plenty of opportunities for amazing underwater captures. We will take a two-hour boat ride back to San Cristobal. Upon our arrival around 5:00 PM, the journey will culminate with a serene closing meditation, thoughtfully designed to help you integrate the experiences of the trip and embrace a sense of inner calm. We will then gather for a heartfelt farewell dinner, celebrating the connections made, the beauty discovered, and the transformative moments shared.
Meals included: Breakfast and lunch
After breakfast, we will transfer you to the airport for your local flight back to Quito. Flights from Galapagos to Quito typically arrive in the early to late afternoon, so please ensure that your international flight from Quito departs after 8:00 PM to allow enough time for your connection. END OF SERVICES.
