About this trip

I was a program leader last year (Summer 2023) and Jorge and his staff were excellent! I highly recommend their services. They're incredibly knowledgeable about the Islands and many parts of mainland Ecuador. Jorge and his staff were punctual, professional, informative, and engaging. 

Enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide Eduardo, was great. Exciting and bumpy boat ride along southern Isabela. Amazing manta ray sightings and plentiful turtles. Snorkelling sites were contrasting. Lava walking tour interesting. 

TICKETS DE FERRY REF: Ann-Marie Allen x2

The staff is super helpful and understanding. Thank you!

TICKETS DE FERRY REF: Emma Vonder Haar

Todos os passeios foram no horário combinado e as empresas responsáveis pelos tours foram boas. Alguns passeios forneceram lanches e fotos como combinado. Apenas o tour 360⁰ foi um pouco cansativo, muito tempo navegando e bonita menos animais que em Los Tuneles, o melhor passeio.

TOURS ISABELA REF: Amilcar Past

Galápagos Native helped us with making our ferry & other bookings from the UK & it all went seamlessly. 

Rosana Lassing

PIM STINS X2 - MAY 1ST TO 2ND

This was a very nice tour with a great guide! Thanks a lot!

TOUR TUNELES REF. Anastasiia Makarova X2

Thank you so much for this awesome review. We really appreciate it.

Make sure you don’t miss this amazing tour! Unique and picturesque landscapes, and ample marine life.
Our guide, Jimmy, was great and made sure we all got to see the animals. Big shout out to the rest of the crew as well!



TOUR TUNELES REF: NEVENA STAJCIC X2

A very well organized trip! We got everything as promised logistics-wise and the snorkeling sessions were amazing with a lot of marine life; sea turtles, black and white tip reef sharks, sea horses, multiple different kinds of fish, sea lions etc. Highly recommend!

Mikko Sahlstedt x 2 ( tuneles miercoles 12 de  marzo 11am )

Thank you so much for this review. We really appreciate it.

The guide was very nice and he was speaking fluent english; the Volcan is nice but there are other Tours in Isabela which are more special; there aren’t many birds or animals to see…
Only the Volcano.



Scilla Mannucci x2

We went on 4 day trips with them. All were organized very professionally. Highly recommend them

FEERY X 4 Aleksandra Baran

This is an amazing tour of the tunnels.  I highly recommend this tour.  I saw sea creatures I had never seen before and lots of them.  The guide and boat crew were great.

MARIA YELIZARIVA X 2 30 DE MAYO AL 13 DE JUNIO

Gabriela (I hope that is her name!!!) was incredible and so supportive. I did the Cabo Rosa Isla Snorkelling tour. One of the many highlights of my trip. She also helped me with hotel on Isabela as well as getting on and off the island. My taxi driver from Puerto Ayora was also amazing. He took me all the way to the bus to the airport.
I highly suggest that anyone coming to the Galapagos, definitely check out Isabela Isle and to use Galapagos Native Tour Operator as a planner
20/10 would recommend!

Charlene Heilman X1

Our trip to Galapagos was amazing and we had our activities/transfers well organized by Gabriela and Galapagos Native. We especially recommend North Seymour trip! I took one star off because our last trip to Santa Fe didn't turn out as  in the description, it wasn't GN responsibility but nevertheless we weren't properly informed, and we didn't like the "surprise".  

FABIANA X 2 FULL ACTIVITIES

We had a great time! I travelled with 15 more people (family and firends) and Native helped all the step of the way. It was a wonderful tour, the best I have ever done in Galapagos Islands. Really recommended!

SIERRA NEGRA VOLCANO X1

Very scenic and the scenery changes along the hike. If you’re not reasonably fit, it’s not for you. It is about 9 miles or 10 if you do the last part. There is a significant amount of uphill. You are given a choice to skip the last part where you hike further down to see what you can already see but much closer. The return trip on that section is all uphill so we elected not to do it and yet still feel pretty good about our hike and thoroughly enjoyed it. There’s a Spanish and an English speaking guide. I definitely think this is something you should put on your to do list as it gives a truly different experience to the rest of the Galapagos. This company was well organized. The group was large which can be both annoying and nice if you’re looking to socialize a bit on the trail. 

We had a wonderful time. Our guide was outstanding. We still talk about him two weeks later. He was very kind to our family and went above and beyond to find wildlife for us to see in the water amazing tour. Thank you!

Snorkeling en Tuneles x 4

We had a great time in Isabela island. Everything related tours, excursions, wildlife, landscape, the village, the beach was absolutely lovely. Can't say the same thing about our stay since the hotel staffing was not up to our expectations in terms of service and attention. 1st night the TV and the blackout in one of our rooms was broken. No chance to change room. The breakfast was poor and once they run out of meals or drinks during the buffet service they didn't refill/replace the items. Plus some staffing were impolite and unwilling to give an extra mile.

LA LAGUNA HOTEL - JIMMY PATIÑO  X8

We had a great time. Los Tunneles tour was well organised and well worth it. 

Ferry ride tickets were booked in advance and sent via WhatsApp...

NATALIA MRNJAVAC (BICI-VOLCÁN-FERRY)

These guys were amazing, Sebastian was the best, so informative and helpful, I booked a tour with him and after speaking to him decided to go ahead and book everything else as he was so nice and welcoming.

FERRY TICKETS JOSELIN X2

Great tour in general, easy hike with lots to see and lots of information about the volcano (how it was formed, lava structures and so on..).
Lunch however is just a snack with one small bread, an apple and some biscuits, so bring some food if you need some more when hiking (16km).

JESSICA X2 - HIKING TO SIERRA NEGRA VOLCANO

Picked up at hotel for a 45 minute bus ride. Comfortable accomodation in the 'yacht' for the 2 plus hour boat ride to Bartolome Island from the Santa Cruz/ Baltra area port. 
Expect a long ride on board. Our boat had bathrooms, on board chef and multiple crew. The captain was very nice! 
Our guide James spoke both Spanish and English. 
We passed Daphne Island on the way. 
It is a HOT hike ith 0 shade. Put on sunscreens carry a water bottle. There is a canteen onboard. 
It is a wet landing on the beach. 
On Bartolome snorkleing there are possibilities of seeing Sharks, Star Fish, Fish, penguins, Eel, dolphins and more. 
Lunch is prepared post hike and snorkleing. 
Definitely worth the cost!!!!


PINZON AND BARTOLOME TOUR - JESSICA SPARKMANx2

The ferry was absolutely horrendous. Please note: this is not a ferry but a boat that seats approximately 20 people on benches. People at the back of the boat got completely soaked (the tarp leaked). The gaskets that we’re on the hatches inside the boat leaked - people sitting under the hatches got soaked as well. We would NEVER get one one of these again. On arrival to Santa Cruz we went directly to the Emetebe office and booked a flight. Your companies should make it very clear that these are boats and not ferries. Out of the 20 rookie six for very sick - the ride is CHOPPY!!
The Tintoreras tour and Tuneles Santa Rosa were excellent with amazing guides!! (On Isabella Island)

Rita Tailler x2 (Transfer In-Ferries-Tours)

Speedboat Ticket - Ticket de Lancha

Incredible! Diana was the greatest guide who answered all our questions and interacted so well with all the trip-goers. We saw sharks and turtles and sea horses and more! It was great. 

Tuneles - NATASHA DUTTON x2

Excelentes excursiones, espectaculares los paisajes, el snorkel magnífico, vimos muchos peces, lobos marinos, tiburones, tortugas, Piqueros de patas azules, mantarrayas.. El personal muy amable. Todo muy cuidado. Muy puntuales con los horarios.  

Mariana Garcia x4 - Tuneles y Tintoreras

Excelente servicio, la lancha cómoda, muy puntual. 

Mariana Garcia x4 - Tickets de lancha ida y regreso

Very nice hotel in a convenient area close to town and water.  Hotel is modern and comfortable. Definitely recommend!

LA LAGUNA HOTEL - AARON BROWN

Excellent experience! Booked a hotel and 2 tours with the company - they picked me up from the small airport and had everything arranged for me. Wonderful accommodations and tours - highly recommend and will use again! 

Hotel - Adrien Zap x1

This trip was a great alternative to the expensive cruises.  If you are looking for a budget friendly trip to see all that Galapagos has to offer, this is an excellent choice. Our guides knew the area and reliably picked us up and dropped us off every day. I would highly recommend.

Programa en Galápagos - Jua  Seo X2

We had wonderful time with Galapagos Native. We  participated two tours: BARTOLOME ISLAND TOUR and  SEYMOUR NORTH ISLAND TOUR, both are well organized and worth of time/money. The tour guides are very knowledgeable about the nature and history of these islands, they took good care of the participants. The lunches were wonderful and very tasty. Snorkeling at the beaches of these two islands were amazing experiences, we truly enjoyed them. I just wished we could spend a little bit more time on Seymour North Island to watch those wild animals. 

LEON DORMIDO CARMEN MORETA X2

Many thanks for sharing this. We are glad you had a great experience with us.

Wonderful trip and excellent value. Trip and activities were well coordinated and on time. Hotels were clean and comfortable and the food was generally good. All the guides were very friendly, knowledgeable, and spoke English well. Definitely recommend!

6 Days 5 Nights Magical Isabela (Lorraine Heath x1)

Pablo was a great guide! We had a fantastic time and saw lots of sea turtles, sharks and blue footed boobies. Amazing!!

The Tunnels Tour - Andrean Baum x2

We had a great time. The two excursions were really great ! Thanks

Volcano and Tuneles Tour - CECILE TRANZER X2

We had a great time.  Wonderful team group that provided us good food and confortable accommodation.

We had a great time in Isabela. We visited los Tuneles and the Sierra Negra volcano. Everything went smoothly, we even saw some pengiuns and were lucky enough to get a school of dolphins to go around our boat. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
