Run by: Guiding Galapagos Expeditions

A full day on Isabela, the largest island in the Galapagos, built around three stops: a walk and snorkel at Tintorera Islet, where white-tip reef sharks rest in the shallow channels, time in the wetlands where flamingos feed, and snorkeling in waters shared by sea lions and marine iguanas. Guiding Galapagos Expeditions runs the trip over roughly 10 hours, and it suits travelers who want Isabela's wildlife in a single, well-paced outing.
