4-Day Galapagos Tour: Santa Cruz & 2 Uninhabited Islands

Arrival on Baltra, Transfer to Santa Cruz & Tour of the Highlands Upon arrival on Baltra, an English-speaking guide greets you and leads you to Santa Cruz Island. After checking into your hotel, embark on a tour of the Highlands, an area filled with overgrown forest, giant tortoises, and ancient underground lava chambers.

Travel by boat from Santa Cruz to 2 of the tiny nearby uninhabited islands—Bartolomé, North Seymour, South Plaza, or Santa Fe. On each day, you're given plenty of time to venture into the outdoors to explore the region's range of wildlife. Scope out blue-footed boobies, marine iguanas, and goofy Galapagos penguins. After lunch, strap on snorkeling gear to discover friendly sea lions, colorful fish, and spotted turtles before heading back to Santa Cruz.
