Thursday

Galapagos - Isla Isabela

Leaving early on our private transport to make the most of the day, we'll head towards the national park where we can explore an impressive and unique volcanic world.

We will see some drastic changes in plant life and weather before we reach the highest point of our Galapagos journey at 1500m. Walking along the rim of the Sierra Nega Crater we'll experience a mix of vapours and gases clearly indicating the active nature of the volcano. Indeed, the last eruption here took place in October 2005.

Then we'll visit the Lava fields of volcano Chico; a moon-like landscape made out of different types of lava in all imaginable forms and colours.

Our private transport will take us back to Puerto Villamil where we can enjoy the rest of the day at our own leisure.

Hostal for our tours in Puerto Villamil

The small hotel is in the middle of the town. The terrace has hammocks and access to the beach 2 minutes on foot. The perfect place to relax.

What we like about the rooms:
The ambience is enhanced by very comfortable mattresses and private bathrooms.
