One of the primary advantages of a land-based experience is that you have a great degree of flexibility. You can determine which islands you would like to see, and when you would like to see them.
Additionally, you have your choice of day trips. You can be part of a scheduled day-boat adventure, where you join and make friends with other travelers as you travel through the different Islands.
Or, if you prefer, you can have your own private day-boat, allowing you the ultimate in flexibility and providing more comfortable and speedy travel to the different Islands.
Private day-boats also can guarantee some of the very best guides in the entire Galapagos.
If you are considering the land-based option, we offer two different options.
You can stay at a beautiful resort in the Highlands of Santa Cruz, where you will enjoy beautiful grounds, fantastic cuisine, a swimming pool, tennis courts, spa, business office and more. For more information and an electronic brochure, please contact us.
Typically, guests who enjoy the resort also experience the Islands through scheduled day-boats, allowing them to make friends with other travelers.
Or, if you prefer the ultimate in independence, the best of the luxurious, the best of the best guides, the best cuisine, we offer the Escalesia, your very own private and fully staffed Villa eager to cater to your every whim. This Villa is particularly popular with Families or with couples traveling together. Or, of course, for a couple wishing the ultimate romantic get-away. For more information and an electronic brochure, please contact us.
The costs of the land-based vacation varies greatly because of the different options available. The base price for the Resort along with the day-boat trips is similar to that of a nice First Class Yacht.
The price for the Villa varies even more depending on the options that you select.
We would be glad to assist you with your very own itinerary. And would also be glad to show you sample itineraries that we have developed for other guests. Just call us to let us know what you would like to experience/do and see and we would be pleased to help you make this truly your "experience of a lifetime."
