We're starting in San Cristobal, take your time taking in all the views and exploring the island or just chilling on the beach. We will meet in the evening for our welcome meal and get to know each other. It's going to be an amazing 7 days!

Your Tru Leader will be able to give you more information on this closer to your tour. These costs are not included in the price of the tour.

The morning's yours today, sleep in, hit the beach, or explore San Cristobal's town at your own pace. In the afternoon we'll dive into the island's history at the Interpretative Centre, then head to Cerro Tijeretas for your first swim of the trip, expect playful sea lions stealing the show, plus turtles, rays and tropical fish. As the sun dips, we'll grab chairs at Punta Carola for sunset drinks and toast to day one in paradise.

It's an Island-hopping day today! We'll travel from San Cristobal to Santa Cruz, then spend the morning at the Charles Darwin Research Station diving into the islands' history and wildlife. Fun fact: conservation efforts have taken the tortoise population from just 3,000 in the 1970s to around 20,000 today. Fuelled up on knowledge and lunch, we'll set off for our next stop, Isabela!

Today is alll about snorkelling! This morning you'll have some free time to spend as you wish, there lots of optional things to do, your tour guide will have loads of suggestions. We'll meet up in the afternoon and travel to Concha Perla (aka Pearl Shell) for an afternoon of snorkelling! Finger's crossed we see sea lions, turtles, rays and more! After a lovely day we'll head out for dinner and share all the go pro footage we have collected today.

We're up and out early this morning and hiking up to one of the most magical viewpoints in Ecuador. We'll walk up to the Sierra Negra view point, from the top we'll be overlooking one of the largest active volcanic calderas in the world, it is amazing and so worth the walk! Once we are back down we'll grab some lunch and then we're off to our final island of the trip, Santa Cruz!

Today we are heading to a ranch! Get ready for good views, great food and SO many animals! We'll start our time at the ranch with a visit to the giant tortoises, these guys and gals are EVEN bigger than you can imagine. Then it's time to explore the lava tunnels, these tunnels have been naturally formed by the molten lava has cooling and solidifying.

The time has sadly come to say goodbye to this paradise! Take your last photos, hug your new besties and make the most of the final day here in the Galapagos! It's been a dream!
