Must visit. Hundreds to thousands of tortoises here just roaming around. Part of highland tour that the taxis know about.

It is a great place to visit and see turtles. The best time to go is around 9:00-9:30 a.m as it is not too hot out.

Amazing experience. Walk slow, really take your time to look. Sometimes you hear the tortoise before you see it. We had a fantastic time visiting. A MUST DO on the island.

This is probably the single coolest place on San Cristóbal outside the beaches and diving! You'll get to see the nursery where baby tortoises are kept safe and grow together. They're all so tiny and cute. I'm the preserve you'll find the adult tortoises. They're enormous and could be wandering anywhere. However, you'll likely find a few right on the trail thanks to strategically places watering holes.

Great place to learn about the many ways the park is trying to save, restore and protect the island and natural animals and plants. Including the tortoises. Nice gift shop as well.
