Parque Nacional Galápagos

The Galapagos Islands are home to some of the highest levels of endemism (species found nowhere else on earth) anywhere on the planet. About 80% of the land birds you will see, 97% of the reptiles and land mammals, and more than 30% of the plants are endemic. More than 20% of the marine species in Galapagos are found nowhere else on earth. Favorites include the giant Galapagos tortoise, marine iguana, flightless cormorant, and the Galapagos penguin — the only penguin species to be found in the Northern Hemisphere.

Perfect location ,, walking distance to every thing ,, Very comfortable , small boutique hotel with pool ,,

Wonderful to have a park like this dedicated to the beautiful tortoises. They are free to roam around and not afraid of people. Great job to the staff giving such good care.

Amazing place, unique in the world. It becomes very expensive to move around the islands. And locals have different prices for turists, particularly if you are a gringo (anyone outside South America). I wish they were more severe against turists who do not respect nature and the animals

Beautiful and quiet. Follow the trail and then walk the beach to the other side to see marine iguanas and birds. Follow the path to the Bay where you can swim and rent kayaks. Beautiful walk.

What an amazing experience! Everything is kept very clean and safety for the animals and the environment is priority. Wonderful guides lead the tours and are very knowledgeable. People are very friendly and towns are safe. Navigation between island can be rough depending on sea conditions.

Breathtaking adventure full of endemic and unique species to explore!! Loved it and will be back to check out other islands. If you like animals and swimming, you cant miss this place! To get the full experience in the water, you should get a scuba diving lisence, otherwise snorkel and diving (beginner level) should be enough for the first time!

One of the most amazing places I've ever been. A place where you can see how wild life behaves in 13 remote island 600miles away from mainland...iguanas that can swim, birds that cannot fly, penguins swimming with sea lions...SPEECHLESS!
