Options

During the booking process, choose between two options that both begin at the port of Puerto Ayora and include an English-speaking guide.

Isabela Island Tour

After meeting at the specified time, we will set sail on our speedboat. After a two-hour cruise, we will arrive on Isabela Island, the largest in the Galapagos archipelago and one of the most volcanically active places. We will first visit Puerto Villamil, known for its turtles, where you can see different species of giant land tortoises, flamingos, and marine iguanas.

After visiting the turtles, we will enjoy lunch at a local restaurant. Then, we'll head to Concha Perla, a beach surrounded by mangroves, where sea lions and turtles swim freely. Finally, we will return to the speedboat after 11 hours of adventure!

Isabela Island Tour + Tintoreras Excursion

After meeting at the dock in Puerto Ayora, we will board the speedboat for a tour of Tintoreras Bay, known for white-tip sharks, Galapagos penguins, and blue-footed boobies. We will snorkel in the bay to see colorful reef fish and visit the islet of Tintoreras to observe seabirds.

Next, we will go to Isabela Pier for food at a local restaurant, followed by exploration of the island, enjoying the ecosystem of Puerto Villamil with its tortoises, flamingos, pelicans, and Galapagos penguins. We will return to Santa Cruz after 11 hours.

Important information

On the day of the tour, there will be an added fee of 10 USD for non-nationals (5 USD for locals) for the use of the port in Isabela. Please bring this amount in cash.
