Description

Observe the emblematic species of the Galapagos Islands, The Giant Land Tortoises. These are found in free areas, such as lagoons, trails and in the beautiful natural landscape of the Upper Part. We will also explore The lava tunnels. These are hollow rocks-type caverns or caves, which allow us to take a walk inside them and take pictures of this beautiful and unique volcanic formation. Finally, we will visit Los Gemelos (Twin Craters); these are 2 gigantic inactive craters located under the earth's surface in the form of cones (sunken) and formed by a series of volcanic eruptions.
