Day 1: Highlands of Santa Cruz
Welcome to one of the world’s most extraordinary destinations: the Galapagos Islands.
To kickstart your adventure on the way to Blu Lodge, your first stop will be at a reserve housing one of Earth’s oldest inhabitants: the Galapagos Giant Tortoises. Here, you’ll embark on a leisurely hike, keeping an eye out for these gentle giants and the various bird species that flit among the endemic trees. Lunch will be served at a local restaurant within the reserve.
After lunch, you’ll journey to Blu Lodge, where your afternoon will be graced by the breathtaking ocean view from our “Cuarto de Lobos” Lounge while accompanied by the charming local sea lions. For dinner, we’ll offer you a delectable seasonal dish, featuring the catch of the day (lobster or spiderfish). Keep your camera ready, your dining experience promises to be a visual delight!
Day 2 and day 3: Explore Uninhabited Islands
On the second and third days of your adventure, prepare for captivating day cruises aboard a yacht to explore some of the Galapagos’ uninhabited treasures: South Plaza, Santa Fe, Bartolome, or North Seymour.
Each island tour includes guided hikes, snorkeling, and birdwatching. During the yacht journey, keep your eyes peeled for dolphins gracefully swimming alongside, and if you’re lucky, you might even spot some whales. Your guide will enrich your experience with insights into the islands’ unique biodiversity.
Lunch will be served on board, and in the evening, you’ll enjoy dinner at the finest restaurants in town.
*Island selection will be confirmed upon your inquiry, subject to schedule availability, ensuring your visit is truly special.
