Galapagos at a Glance - Itinerary B Summary

Add to Shortlist

Day 1 Quito

Quito is a cultured city with a wonderous Old Town, a dynamic nightlife and atmospheric streets showcasing Ecuadorian life in all its splendour.

Day 2 Baltra/Isla Santa Cruz

The archipelago's main airport is on Isla Baltra - the gateway to the Galapagos. Isla Santa Cruz is home to the Charles Darwin Research Station which offers visitors their best chance for close-up encounters with giant tortoises.

Day 3 Isla Plaza Sur/Isla Santa Fe

A small island of great natural beauty, Isla Plaza Sur features rugged cliffs, prickly pear cacti and a gathering of male sea lions known as 'the gentlemen’s club'. Isla Santa Fe is a lovely place to take a dip with sea lions and its cacti forests are host to a unique sub-species of land iguanas.

Day 4 Isla Bartolome

Inhospitable to most plants and animals, Isla Bartolome's moon-like landscape features a diverse array of volcanic formations - lava bombs, cinder cones and the famous Pinnacle Rock.

Day 5 Isla Mosquera/Baltra/Quito

The small sandy island of Mosquera is a picturesque spot to relax on the beach and watch Sally Lightfoot crabs looking for food among the rocks and tide pools.

Day 6 Quito

Stretched out along a central Andean valley under the gaze of Volcan Pichincha, Quito is one of the most attractive cities in South America.
