Marvellous! - For a half day trip, this tour packed in so much. The slow boat ride delivered sightings of penguins, sea lions, rays and turtles within minutes. The short walk over the lava fields gave us views of the inlet where the turtles and white-tipped sharks come to bask. There were also brown iguanas nesting. The snorkelling got us in close contact with seals, turtles, penguins and sharks. Our guide was very informative and constantly spotting things of interest. I would thoroughly recommend this tour.

Best Snorkelling - Our guide Peter was excellent with great passion and knowledge of the wildlife and geology. By far the best snorkelling we've ever done, with our guide helping us to find every animal we were hoping to see and we even got lucky with a feeding frenzy with seals and both black and white tip sharks. Lots of sea turtles and rays. The walk on the island exceeded expectations, despite much of the path being shut for iguana breeding season. All only a short 5min boat ride from the town!

A lovely afternoon in Tintoreras - Tintoreras was the 3rd tour I booked with this agency but the first one I took chronologically. I booked it for the afternoon of the day of my arrival, and it was as I expected, very chill half day, not too long not too tiring. It was a wonderful way to set off my Isabela adventure, Sebastian from the agency was welcoming and friendly, and he gave me all the information I needed, and the guide - also Sebastian, but a different one, was charismatic and charming, he was very knowledgeable, and it showed how much he loves the place and appreciative and respectful of nature so I was very impressed and I felt in very good hands. I was extremely happy with the tour and operation, and the boat crew as well was lovely. Just a great afternoon.

Very good - We did 3 tours with Galapagos Native tours; Tintoretas, Tunnels and Sierra Negra. All were amazing, but for us the best one was Tintoreras! Snorkeling with many sharks, turtles, rays, even a penguin. Tito the guide was the best. Tunnels was also very cool and so many turtles from very close, Sierra Negra is a nice hike (+/- 5 hours in total, easy to medium level) with beautiful surroundings. Everything was very well arranged by Sandra.
