INCENTIVE TOURS AND GROUP
TRAVEL GALAPAGOS
Traveling in groups is a great experience in Galapagos. Isabella Island is an incomparable adventure; unfortunately no many people are lucky enough to visit it when they come to Galapagos. This Island is one of the furthest islands in the Archipelago, so far of the noise of the world we are use to. Isabella couldn’t be different, it is a tourist place of people that find a moment, days, weeks of beauty, quite and peace. We have much experience working with family and friends groups, incentive groups; we offer special discounts for groups over than 10 people. We have designed a hand made itinerary, capable to operate any day of the week, offering more flexibility for your travel plans.

In this marshland you can observe black-necked stilts, herons and Galapagos pintails, arrive to the Muro de las Lagrimas passig by the Orchilla viewpoint. Afterwards the trip leads you to the turtle raising station on Isabella, where the staff dutifully tries to sustain potentially endangered species. The following hike takes you through a diversity of flora ending on the beach and finally at the hotel
Aftnernoon: Tintoreras
In the morning you will do a short boat trip through the Harbour basin. On your way to the small island of Las Tintoreras look out for sea lions, pelicans and penguins.
