Travel Information
Unlike anywhere else on earth and home to some of the world’s most exotic animals; without the Galapagos Islands, Charles Darwin may not have been able to crystallise his theory of evolution which is now considered one of the most important scientific breakthroughs of all time.
Today, many species of animals can only be found in the Galapagos Islands and are classified as endangered. There are many restrictions regarding tourism, however, you can still visit this beautiful collection of islands.
See the giant tortoises trudging along the grass and the Marine iguanas lounging on the rocks. It is definitely a once in a lifetime experience.
Head to the Galapagos National Park and observe so many of the wonderful animals exclusive to this part of the world.
Check out the Volcan Sierra Negra. This volcano last erupted in 2005. You may wish to go on a guided tour as it’s easy to get lost in the mist as you near the summit!
Visit the Lava Tubes in Santa Cruz. These fascinating structures were formed by lava millions of years ago.
To fly to the Galapagos Islands you’ll need to travel via Quito in Ecuador. Quito can be accessed by a range of international flights (such as via Madrid or the USA).
