Welcome to the Galapagos Tortoises Evolution Tour! We are excited to take you on a full-day yacht adventure to explore the magnificent highlands of Santa Cruz and other beautiful islands. You will have the opportunity to witness the breathtaking beauty of the Enchanted Islands, immerse yourself in the local culture and traditions, and discover the wonders of the Galapagos Islands. The iconic tortoises that inhabit this place will fascinate you with their evolution and make this journey unforgettable and enriching.

Upon arrival in Baltra, a guide will be waiting for us to take this incredible adventure at the Galapagos Islands. After a friendly welcome, we will visit THE HIGHLANDS AND THE LAVA TUNNELS of Santa Cruz, to enjoy the fabulous and very famous giant tortoises in their natural habitat; these animals of prehistoric aspect lengthen their necks to eat and be photographed by our visitors at the Archipelago. At the same time, getting to know these giants, is one of the most significant expectations for the passengers. The density of vegetation in this forest, including orchids, daisies, and bromeliads, also gives a place to be the habitat of several endemic land birds including Darwin’s finches, Galapagos Hawks, short-eared owls, Yellow Warblers, Galapagos Rails, Vermilion Flycatchers, and Paint-billed Crakes. Have a delicious lunch surrounded by nature. Later on, transfer to Puerto Ayora and go to the CHARLES DARWIN STATION, where we will visit THE TORTOISE BREEDING CENTER and can observe the different species of tortoises on the other islands. The Charles Darwin research station is the operational center of the Charles Darwin Foundation. Their mission is to provide knowledge and assistance through scientific research and other actions to guarantee the conservation of biodiversity and the environment in the Archipelago of Galapagos.
