Detailed Itinerary

SANTA CRUZ ISLAND

Friday afternoon: Visit the Highlands of the Island

The highland of Santa Cruz is one of the best place to watch wild giant tortoises. As you walk through the forest, be aware to the sound of heavy foot steps and the sound of shrubs being slowly crushed as the tortoises make their way through the brush to enjoy a meal. In the highalnds you will also find the lava tubes, sinkholes and craters to explore. These formations offer a fascinating hike into the belly of the island to view its volcanic make-up.

After this visit, you will have dinner and overnight in a first class hotel in Puerto Ayora town, Santa Cruz Island.
