Description
At the indicated time, we'll meet at Galapagos Frontier to start this tour of the natural reserve on Santa Cruz Island.
Before observing the giant tortoises, we will enjoy a orange juice or cup of coffee at Galapagos Frontier.
We will walk through paths surrounded by fruit trees and visit the forest. During the walk, we will find some of the famous tortoises and see the pools where they keep cool. We will also spot various species of endemic birds, such as canaries and different varieties of Darwin's finches.
Once out of the forest, we will see two lava tunnels with impressive stalactite and stalagmite formations. We will explain how they are formed and admire their beauty, including a special guest, a barn owl that lives in the cave.
After 3 hours of exploring, we will return to the starting point to conclude this tour.
