Charles Darwin Research Station Tour
Charles Darwin Research Station Tour
At the scheduled time, we'll meet up at your hotel in Puerto Ayora and walk together to the Charles Darwin Research Station, one of the most remarkable places in the Galapagos Islands.
We'll step inside this biological research station, operated by the Charles Darwin Foundation, to greet the tortoises, iguanas, and land birds that live here. We'll share loads of info about these animals, as well as about the work carried out by Darwin during his studies.
The tour will also take us through the giant cactus forests and the active breeding center. During the walk, we'll tell you about the research that's currently being carried out in this center, especially regarding environmental conservation.
After a 2.5-hour guided tour, we'll return to the starting point with a camera full of pictures of giant tortoises and iguanas, and smiles on our faces. Until next time!
Hotel Pickup
The tour includes pickup at hotels in Puerto Ayora. If you're staying in another area of the island, we'll meet you instead at the Solymar Hotel.
