Enjoy a yummy breakfast in town and get ready to explore the Northern part of the island, Leon Dormido (also known as Kicker Rock). Swim with turtles, sea lions, rays and more in this world-famous snorkeling spot! Aptly named because of the rock’s resemblance to a sleeping lion, you’ll be amazed by the abundance of beautiful, exotic marine wildlife here.

We charter a boat (45-minute navigation) for the group (you may also scuba dive if you want), starting at 8:30 AM and back at 3:00-4:00 PM in the afternoon.

*Lunch and Dinner included (Descanso Marinero)

After breakfast in town, head over to visit the magical Floreana Island, an ancient Galápagos shield volcano! The oldest lava found here dates back 1.5 million years ago. On the way there, expect to see spectacular formations, stunning birds, and even sea lions! We’ll then spend the night at the island.

There will be a traditional lunch in town, and next, we’ll visit the highland to see Pirate Caves! Hundreds of real pirates, whalers, and buccaneers used this island to replenish their supply of meat, water, and wood, and these caves give a unique insight into their lives.

Just before sunset, we’ll head back in town for a great end to our day on the beach!

*Dinner included (Hotel Wittmer)

Start off your day with a nourishing breakfast at your hotel, and then we’ll leave the Magical Floreana (roughly a 1.5 hour trip) to see Isabela, the largest island in the archipelago! You’ll be staying in a gorgeous, private beachside hotel–Isabela Beach House!

After check-in, we’ll explore a downtown wetland area where you can spot Shorebirds like flamingos, ducks, plovers, stills, and more! We’ll then grab lunch in town followed by a break to swim or practice body surfing.

In the afternoon, we’ll bike to the history-laden Wall of Tears (2.5 hours round-trip). There will be lush vegetation, pretty forests, and even possible tortoise/iguana sightings along the way!

The Wall of Tears was hand-constructed by exiled prisoners using sharp, heavy lava rocks. Many locals believe an ominous energy still haunts the wall today!

*Dinner Included (Endemic Turtle)

Wake up to a delightful, energizing breakfast right outside your door on the beach! After that, our excursion today is a trip to Los Tuneles! Los Tuneles is one of the biggest highlights in Isabela, with fantastic snorkeling opportunities in shallow water, intricate tunnels, sea horses, giant tortoises, and a myriad of exotic fish, sharks, and rays.

The boat trip to Los Tuneles will be about 45 minutes (but it’s worth it)! Boxed lunch onboard.

In the afternoon, you’ll have free time to go swimming, learn surfing, or enjoy another incredible sunset!

*Dinner included (CocoSurf)

After breakfast, an experienced Galápagos National Park guide will take you on a private tour of the Sierra Negra Volcano, one of the largest calderas in South America! About 10K in diameter and 300 feet deep, this majestic caldera is active, but resting. The last eruption was in 2019. We’ll drive 35 minutes to a checkpoint where we can start walking to the summit of the caldera (about a 45-minute walk), so you can see the surreal structure of this volcano in its entirety.

The whole round trip will be approximately 4-5 hours, with boxed lunch to keep you going!

*Dinner included (Hausers)

Enjoy breakfast and then we’ll head off to the central part of Archipelago, Santa Cruz Island (the economic capital in Galápagos). Navigation will take about 2-3 hours via private boat.

Once we arrive at the island, a bus will take us to explore the Santa Cruz Highlands (35-minute ride). Enjoy a fresh respite from the sun, walk through lava tunnels, and marvel at the world-famous giant tortoises! We’ll also visit a local family business, El Chato 2 for lunch.

Next, we’ll go back to town, check into the hotel, and gear up to visit Tortuga Bay! Tortuga Bay is one of the top 10 beaches in the world. Here, you can do all your normal favorite beach activities! Swim, relax, take a walk, and enjoy a calm afternoon! We’ll take a local speedboat back to town (just a 20-minute ride)!

*Dinner included (Bahia Mar)

Do whatever you want! Enjoy breakfast, explore the town, go souvenir shopping, visit the beach, check out the Darwin Center, or take a local day tour to another island (like Seymour or Bartolome Island). It’s totally up to you! Please note that external day tours are not included in your trip with us.

*Farewell dinner (Isla Grill)

Today after breakfast, your guide will take you to the airport (1-hour trip). Sadly, your tour ends here, but we thank you for coming!
