We were very lucky and had a private tour of the property and lava tunnels - it’s really great. There are dozens of large tortoises 🐢, an array of bird life 🦅, 25 different fruits 🍈, and very knowledgeable guides. The lava tunnels are really really cool - a must do! This tour combined with the Charles Darwin centre would give you a comprehensive view of part of the Galapagos - including seeing both the dome and saddle back tortoises. This is also one of the best priced tours on the island by far. Price combined with experience is exceptional value! Very grateful for Frontier’s hospitality!

Great experience! We biked from puerto ayora to the property and saw dozens of tortoises of different ages. The guide showed us lava tunnels and let us pick fruit off the property. Great way to see tortoises up close.

You will see tons of tortoises and endemic birds! We showed up in time for the scheduled tour and the guide took us everywhere, thank you so much for the amazing visit! Tour ends with a delicious glass of clementine juice, fresh from the farm

This was the very best (and cheapest, and closest to Puerto Ayora) of the 3 tortoise ranches we visited. We had an excellent English speaking translator and guide who was very knowledgeable and went into great detail on the ecology of flora, fauna and geology of the islands as well as answered questions as a professor would. It is nice to go into the national park and the lava tube is very impressive. Delicious complimentary fresh squeezed orange juice at the end along with reasonably priced homemade local fruit ice cream completed the perfect tour. Highly recommended!

This experience was amazing! We were lucky enough to be part of a small group that included the parents of the American volunteers (translators). Cesar was an incredibly knowledgeable guide. We saw some massive tortoises, did some bird watching and went into a lava tunnel. As an added plus we were met with a glass of fresh orange juice and were allowed to grab any mandarins off of their trees and munch on them (not inside the national park area) as we toured around.
