Guayaquil

Ecuador’s Galápagos Islands are one of the world’s most remarkable destinations: an open-air wildlife museum that stirs the explorer within everyone. The archipelago, located about 600 miles west of mainland Ecuador, is home to an astonishing variety of endemic species — enough to inspire a theory that would change the world — and proves an irresistible destination for adventurers and nature-lovers to this day. On this epic adventure spend two full days exploring the Galapagos and all that is has to offer with the addition of a tour of Guayaquil and an overnight in Lima.

Observação especial: Due to the nature of the day trips on this program, it is not suitable for guests who have walking difficulty or utilize a wheelchair. Guests must be able to get in and out of small dinghy boats with little to no assistance. Also, any guests travelling with Portable Oxygen Concentrators (POC) or CPAP breathing machines should read further below for airline stipulations with regards to bringing this equipment on tour.

This program begins in Guayaquil, Ecuador therefore your flight must be booked into the José Joaquín de Olmedo International Airport in Guayaquil. Guests will board the ship in San Antonio, Chile and the international flight to Chile is included in this program. The minimum number of guests to operate is 15 guests and there is a maximum of 16 guests for the program.

DAY 1 – 7 fev 2025

On arrival at the José Joaquín de Olmedo International Airport in Guayaquil, proceed through Immigration formalities, identify and collect your luggage and clear Customs.

After Customs clearance you will meet our local representative and transfer to your hotel which is located near the airport.

Check in time is at 3:00pm. Although every effort will be made to have your room available before this time, this cannot be guaranteed. Should you have an early arriving flight you may wish to book an extra night so that your room is ready upon your arrival.

Neste dia, as refeições são por sua conta.

DAY 2 – 8 fev 2025

After breakfast, meet your guide and drive to the airport where you will take a flight to Galapagos.

Upon arrival at Baltra Airport, a Galapagos Naturalist Guide will welcome the group and help with luggage and guidance towards a public bus that will drive towards the Itabaca Channel. Next board a public ferry for a 5-minute crossing of the azure waters of the channel towards Santa Cruz. On Santa Cruz, board a private vehicle just for our group, to transfer to Puerto Ayora on the other side of the island. Make a short stop to see the Twin Craters

Driving through the rural areas of the island, you will experience the agriculture of the archipelago as well as the diversity of its flora. Surrounded by wild landscapes and different species, keep a lookout for the finches that are famous for being the basis of Darwin´s theory of evolution.

Lunch will be served at a local venue in the highlands.

During your visit to the Santa Cruz Highlands, watch the famous Galapagos land tortoises in their natural environment and learn how the private ranches aid to protect these special animals. You can hear their sounds while they are trying to eat the leaves of the trees or crashing through the undergrowth. Tortoises of all different ages and sizes gather here: small young ones with shining carapaces, and older ones which are a little bit more laggard and cracks in their shells showing evidence of a long life. While seeking the giant tortoises, your local guide will share the story of the origin the lava tunnels located at this area. Formed by the lava floods of the volcanoes, they range from the highlands down to the sea level.

Transfer to Puerto Ayora town, where you will enjoy a visit to the Charles Darwin Research Station and its famous residents within an impressive giant prickly-pear cactus forest. These are the headquarters of scientific investigation, conservation, and the National Park administration in the islands. Gain insight into the huge efforts being made by scientists, guides, rangers and park managers to preserve this UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Charles Darwin Research Station is also part of the "Centro de Crianza Fausto Llerena" which is the breeding center for the tortoises. Tortoises are raised here in the care of researchers and then when ready are re-introduced into their natural environment.

Continue para o hotel e o check-in. Dinner is served at the hotel after an exciting and memorable day.

NOTA: please pack accordingly for the flight from Guayaquil to the Galapagos. Guests can only check in free of charge one suitcase with a maximum weight of 50 lbs (23 kg). Each guest is also permitted free of charge one carry-on bag with a maximum of 15 lbs (7 kg). Any excess luggage will be stored free of charge in Guayaquil.

The average cost is approximately $120 USD per extra suitcase and an additional $120 USD for an overweight bag. Fees are imposed by the airline and are subject to change.

DAY 3 – 9 fev 2025

Today take a full day boat tour to one of the nearby Islands. The island chosen for the day is subject to confirmation by Galapagos National Park Management much closer to the program operation date. This government institution assigns the island tours based on technical ecological analysis and is dependent on the number of groups visiting the area at the same time. RSSC nor our local ground operator can control which programs are chosen for each day.

Island Tours:

BARTOLOME:

Experience a day in paradise with beautiful white beaches, outer space ambient, clear water, and observe as many native animals start their day.

On the two-hour boat trip breakfast is served while watching the sunrise at sea. There may be an opportunity to observe dolphins and other marine residents very close to the boat in the early hours.

Landing in Bartolome, approximately 300 steps lead up through the moon-like landscape to the highest point of the island. The reward is an amazing view over the islands Santiago, North Seymour, Baltra, Santa Cruz and Rábida. Also in view is Chinese Hat Island, as well as the well-known Pinnacle Rock, which is all that remains of an ancient volcano. The rock is home to a large quantity of sea birds and is the most photographed landscape in the Galapagos Islands.

After changing clothes for a beach visit, board the dinghy-ride for a short ride to Sullivan Bay for snorkeling. Those who don't wish to snorkel may stay on the dinghy to search among the rocks for the diminutive Galapagos Penguin. Back at the beach enjoy some time to relax or swim. The shallow sea invites you to go swimming and snorkeling while we search for Galapagos penguins, sharks, starfish, rays, sea turtles and other exotic and colorful fish. Enjoy the diversity of native residents such as marine iguanas, sea lions, pelicans, and more. After this amazing adventure, lunch is served on the return journey.

SEYMOUR AND BACHAS:

This tour offers the golden chance to get to know Seymour Island and Bachas beach. During the 1-hour boat navigation to Seymour Island, observe the slow awakening of the archipelago as the day begins.

Disembark your boat and board a dinghy for a ride along the rocky coast near a small forest consisting of gray and silver Palo Santo (Holy Stick) trees, which are without leaves for most of the year. Seymour is famous for its large colonies of birds. The unique male frigate birds with their inflated red pouches attract females during breeding season, and the famous Galapagos blue-footed boobies can be observed as well. Other highlights of this excursion are a beach with small cliffs, seagulls, many sea lions, marine iguanas and pelicans, most only an arm's length away.

A freshly cooked lunch consists of two courses and is served on the boat. After lunch, your boat navigates to Bachas beach along the northern coast of Santa Cruz Island. Take a short hike to the flamingo pond just behind the beach, and afterwards refresh with swimming and snorkeling at this isolated paradise beach with white sand and turquoise waters. Sea lions, rays, sea turtles, and tropical fish may join in our underwater experience!

PLAZAS AND PUNTA CARRION:

Board a boat and cruise to South Plaza Island. The island welcomes travelers with a bright colorful red and green carpet of sesuvio, an endemic plant, spread over the Island, as well as the loud, friendly barking of several sea lion families which have settled down on the shore of the channel between North and South Plaza Islands where your boat anchors. The turquoise water of the ocean juxtaposes perfectly with the white shining beaches and the black lava rocks of the coast.

The hike is easy and goes alongside relaxing sea lions and land iguanas which can be found on most parts of the island. The trail leads to the highest cliff where swallow-tailed gulls cross the air screaming. Here lie the sea lions which could not persist against their competitors climbing up the almost vertical wall. At the same time, tropical birds, blue-footed boobies, and other marine frigate birds glide gently in the wind. We suggest guests bring along binoculars in order to get an extraordinary close view of these animals, as well as the other marine life. The view from the highest point over the ocean and the powerful waves breaking at the cliffs is an experience that visitors will not forget.

Afterwards, the trip continues to Punta Carrion, where lunch is served on board the boat. This is a great spot to snorkel and swim among rays, sharks, and hundreds of colorful tropic fish.

SANTA FE:

Formed by uplifting, rather than by a volcano, Santa Fe is known for having one of the most beautiful coves in all the Galapagos. Some of the island’s endemic species include the Galapagos hawk, Galapagos snake, land iguanas, various types of finches, and the Galapagos mockingbird. The visit includes a hike on a trail past salt bushes where Galapagos hawks as well as the Santa Fe land iguanas tend to roam. Playful sea lions will usually accompany swimmers and snorkelers during beach time.

FLOREANA:

Navigate to the small town of Puerto Velasco Ibarra located on the Floreana Island (approximately 2.5 hours from Santa Cruz). Upon arrival, take local transportation known as “Chiva” to start a 30-minute ride up to the highlands of Floreana Island. The chiva will ascend a dirt road surrounded by typical dry vegetation which transforms into a lush, green vegetation as you gain elevation. In this area, you will also find some farms with banana, coffee, cacao, and other tropical plantations. The short drive will end at the “pampada” from where you will start a beautiful walk to observe the typical flora of the area. Along the way you will also encounter some giant Galapagos tortoises. Continue to the place known as “Asilo de la Paz” (Peace Asylum), a historical place where the German Wittmer family settled down when they arrived to Floreana in 1932. Observe the caves used as their home before moving to the place which is now known as Puerto Velasco Ibarra. Back in town, enjoy lunch prepared in a small, local restaurant.

Next, walk to “La Loberia”, a beautiful bay. The main attraction is the presence of a small colony of sea lions. There is also a great chance to observe marine iguanas resting on the rocks, and in the waters of the bay we may be able to see marine turtles.

ISABELA:

This morning, sail to the town of Puerto Villamil on Isabela Island (approximately 3 hours from Santa Cruz). Upon arrival, visit the Isabela Tortoise Breading and Interpretation Center where your guide will explain the different activities developed by the National Park to protect the fragile environment. Here, you will also find Giant Galapagos Tortoises of different species and sizes.

Afterwards, walk to the place known as “Humedales” (Wetlands). The walk follows a well-maintained path from which you can observe this beautiful place composed by lagoons and rocks and surrounded by four species of mangroves and typical trees of the area. In the lagoons you can observe flamingos and migratory birds.

After lunch at a local restaurant, visit "Las Tintoreras”, a scenic area where you will find colonies of marine iguanas, sea lions, and many sharks known as Tintoreras (White-tipped sharks) resting in the channels formed by lava flows. Later, you can do some snorkeling, perhaps in the company of sea lions, penguins and marine turtles.

Regardless of the program selected for the day, your trip ends with a late afternoon return and dinner at your hotel.

Importante:

Boat tours may be shared with independent guests

Boat sailing during the navigable day tour is usually rough and due to sea conditions, may take longer than 2 hours. The islands to be visited are determined at the sole discretion of the Galapagos National Park Management.

DAY 4 – 10 fev 2025

This day will be similar to Day 3 but with a different island visited. As with Day 3, the island visited is subject to confirmation closer to program operation. Your day trip ends with a late afternoon return and dinner at your hotel.

DAY 5 – 11 fev 2025

After breakfast, transfer to the airport for a flight back to Guayaquil. Upon arrival, you will be met and transferred to a local restaurant for lunch followed by a panoramic city tour of Guayaquil. Guests will be re-united with any luggage that was stored.

Begin along the architecturally-rich main 9 de Octubre Avenue, and then continue to a favorite destination of the locals – Centennial Park – a green area that honors the heroes of Guayaquil’s Independence. The unusual Bolivar Park, also called “park of the iguanas”, comes next. Here, you will have an opportunity to see the colorful iguanas roaming around the park undisturbed and perching on the treetops!

Continue to the Malecon 2000 along the shores of the Guayas River. Pass by the Civic Plaza, the Moorish Tower, City Hall, and the Rotonda Monument. Drive towards the north passing Santa Ana Hill, which is home to Guayaquil’s oldest neighborhood – the Barrio of Las Peñas. Here the homes have been beautifully restored with brightly colored paints and design details.

After your tour, return to the Guayaquil International Airport for an international flight to Lima.

Upon arrival in Lima, you will go through Customs and Immigration and once you have collected your luggage you will meet a local guide who will walk with you to your overnight hotel which is located inside the airport terminal.

A late dinner will be provided at the hotel.
