The Galapagos Islands offers one of nature's greatest shows on earth. Straddling the equator (think on that: some islands in the southern hemisphere, some in the northern hemisphere!) 605 miles west of Ecuador, the 15 main islands, 3 smaller islands and some 107 rocks and islets total a land mass of 3040 sqare miles spread over some 17,000 square miles of ocean.
This means that the primary Galapagos Experience is by boat, which allows you to reach a variety of sites spread out among various islands offering the diverse flora and fauna for which the islands are world renowned and earning them the designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a Biosphere Reserve and a Marine Reserve.
So after the primary exploration by water, why would you want the "extend" your Galapagos Experience?
For a different Galapagos Experience, designed by you and at your own pace. Linger as long as you want. Bike, hike, kayak, snorkel, scuba dive. Bird watch, tortoise watch, walk through lava tunnels. Slow down and soak in the surroundings. Take time to download and process nature's greatest show witnessed during the cruise before heading back to life at home.
The Galapagos Safari Camp, perched on a hill on a 55 hectar farm 30 minutes from Puerto Ayora on Santa Cruz Island, provides precisely the place and the opportunity for this "experience extension".
The Safari Camp has just 9 safari-style-tent accommodations with private facilities, a lodge with sitting areas inside and out, dining room & lounge and a pool, all with vistas across the highlands to the ocean. Service is very hands-on by the owners who will design land based activities with you, for you.
A Galapagos Experience is probably a once-in-a-lifetime journey. Stretch it out for as long as possible. Maximize your visit. Get a different persepective. Extend your Galapagos Experience at the unique
Galapagos Safari Camp.
