Santa Cruz Island, the heart of Galapagos Islands
Santa Cruz is the vibrant heart of the Galapagos, where lush highlands meet pristine beaches, and wildlife thrives in harmony with its stunning landscapes. From its iconic giant tortoises slowly roaming through green meadows to its picturesque coastline lined with mangroves, Santa Cruz offers a perfect blend of adventure and tranquility. Whether exploring its volcanic craters or snorkeling in crystal-clear waters, the island captivates with its diverse beauty and unforgettable experiences.
"The journey to the Itabaca Channel, which separates Baltra Island from Santa Cruz Island, will take 10 minutes. It will take 5 minutes on motor boats to cross the canal to reach Santa Cruz island. From there, we will proceed on individual transport (approximately 45 minutes' drive) across the entire island to the town of Puerto Ayora and your hotel. Please note the change in the environment: from the red rocky surface in the north to the green world of wildlife in the highlands and the south.
From the airport, the guide will accompany the group to the highlands of Santa Cruz Island. During the journey through the island's agricultural zones with the surrounding wild landscape and various types of flora and fauna, we may observe giant tortoises, which formed the basis for Darwin's theory of evolution.

Important points
Witness the famous Galapagos land tortoises in their natural habitat, and learn how private farms contribute to the conservation of these unique animals and their habitats. You may hear them making sounds while nibbling on leaves or searching for tasty food. Here, you can see tortoises of different ages and sizes: young ones with sparkling shells and lazy old ones with partially cracked shells – traces of a long life.
Well-known lava tunnels are another destination of our journey. Channels formed by uneven cooling of flowing lava from the volcano's slopes extend from the highlands to the shores. Lava tubes are collapsed in several places. However, there are preserved lava tunnels that can be walked through in about 30 minutes. You will see and understand how they were formed, sometimes challenging to pass and sometimes with fallen boulders. The guide will share a detailed history of the origin of these tunnels.

Dear Anna, Alexandra, Iona and the rest of the team at Ada Tours
Feed-back from a happy, satisfied customer!
A very big thank you for your very efficient services, Hospitality and most importantly your patience throughout the tour of my client. Dr. Chrysantha Mendis is very happy with the entire Tour. You did a fantastic job by organizing a detailed tour package covering 7 countries, Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia, Chile, Peru, Argentina, and Brazil. Dr. Mendis has enjoyed all the countries though he could not do a few tours in Peru which is understandable due to political unrest. We will recommend Ada Tours to all our clients in Sri Lanka and will start promoting your tours in our website.
Best wishes and kind regards,
Shamali

Hi Anna, thank you for the update on the glasses. I’ll wait and see what happens! Alan and I are now back in the UK. We loved our trip to the Pantanal and Bonito. Our guide, Alessandra was brilliant with lots of knowledge and very considerate and helpful. The only hitch we had was on our flight back to Rio because the second leg of the trip was cancelled and we were rescheduled to a later plane and our luggage was mislaid. Fortunately it arrived in Rio a day later, before we flew home. Thank you for arranging the trip.
Best wishes Carol

Hello Anna and Natalia,
Thank you for all your help with our trip! I know our group was difficult, and I appreciate your patience with us. We loved the tours, the horseback ride, and the absolutely beautiful lunch at the vineyard. Our guides and drivers were fantastic, especially Luis. And the hotels were perfectly located. It was such a convenience to be centrally located in both Lisbon and Madeira.
I hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday and I look forward to working with you in the new year!

REVIEW №11- Matt, Adventurebug Worldwide Ltd.
Everything went really well. As always we had to make some adjustments and the local guide and team on the ground were very responsive and took action professionally. I have no complaints about this :)
The clients were very pleased with the tour and all arrangements.
Changing the few meals at the end on Isabela was not an issue and the local team did a good job organizing this for me.

Many thanks again Ana!
