El Chato Ranch Giant Tortoise Tour
At the scheduled time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Santa Cruz Island to start the tour. Once gathered, we'll depart towards the higher part of the island.
Upon arrival at the El Chato Ranch, you'll encounter giant tortoises in their natural habitat. We'll walk along green trails to observe these reptiles, which can grow up to 1.5 meters long and weigh over 250 kilograms (551 pounds). You’ll have the opportunity to take impressive pictures as they eat, roll in the mud, and walk through the area.
Next, we'll visit the famous lava tunnels of Santa Cruz Island, part of the attraction of this reserve. These tunnels extend 2 kilometers long, but only 250 meters are accessible. We'll enter these formations to explore their passageways.
After three hours of experiencing the nature of the Galapagos, we'll return you to your hotel in Santa Cruz.
