Cuenca - Galapagos


 
In the morning, we'll fly from Cuenca via Guayaquil to Baltra airport in the Galapagos islands.



Once we arrive, we'll explore Isla Santa Cruz with a local guide. Right away, we will travel through an ever-changing landscape and discover the famous twin craters and walk through a huge lava tunnel.



We'll also have the opportunity to see lots of wild and rare species, including the iconic Giant Tortoises in their natural habitat and the island's Land Iguanas that have thankfully be brought back from distinction.



Afterwards, we'll visit the Charles Darwin Station where research is carried out to protect the Galapagos species. Here, we'll see some more Giant Tortoises, some Land Iguanas and the famous 'Lonesome George'.



After such a packed day, we'll head back to our hotel for a nice evening meal before exploring the island's nightlife.
