Pre-book your Galapagos Islands airport arrival transfer and avoid wasting precious holiday time. You'll be met on Baltra Island upon arrival and taken to your hotel in the Puerto Ayora area on Santa Cruz. All ferry tickets and coach transfers are included in the price!
Upon arrival at Baltra airport, you'll travel by coach to the tip of the Itabaca canal, where you'll proceed by a public ferry service in the Island of Santa Cruz.
Transport will be waiting for you on the other side in order to take you to Puerto Ayora, the hotel zone on Santa Cruz Island. On the way to your hotel and if you're not too tired, you'll have the opportunity to visit the lava tunnels and a turtle reserve.
Opt for a visit to the scientific Charles Darwin Station, where you can learn more about the Galapagos Islands, including the species that live in this enchanted place, its origin, the theory of evolution, the conservation programs and have the opportunity to observe some giant turtles in captivity. The Charles Darwin Station is home to Lonesome George, the last living Pinta tortoise and is a must-see landmark when visiting the Galapagos.
Note: Transfers are only available for flights operated by LAN Airlines

Very professional and informative service. The company was right on time and we felt very comfortable in their hands. This transfer is highly recommended on arrival in Baltra.

Ricardo was waiting for us when we got off our flight and walked us through our luggage collection and entry stations to get our parks permits etc.. He helped us to the airline transfer bus and subsequent ferry ride that took us to Santa Cruz Island. At Santa Cruz Island we boarded the shuttle along with all of our luggage. Both the driver and the guide, Ricardo, were very helpful and considerate. Our first stop was to see giant tortoises in their natural habitat. Ricardo was very familiar with the area and even seemed to know a lot of these amazing creatures personally. He explained a lot about their behavior, history and showed us the best way to observe them without disturbing them. Our guide and driver were wonderful and made our arrival in the Galápagos an experience we will treasure always.

We appreciated having someone guide us through arrival and help with luggage. The tours were good but without an English speaking guide, we missed a good deal of what was being said. Also there was a great deal of confusion about the location of our home rental, probably due to language barrier.

Very nice trip indeed! We got to see flora and fauna that I have never seen before. The guide was informative and friendly. Both Spanish and English were spoken fluently.
