Galapagos Islands: Bartolome Island
Galapagos Islands - Summer 2018 - Episode #10
Today we cruised from Santa Cruz to Bartolome Island, spending the day hiking up to the top of the volcanic island, snorkeling and wildlife watching. A little geology and a litter marine life… what more could you want! Enjoy!
Thanks for watching! For those interested in the logistics and cost of this trip. Check out the information below.
Logistics for Santa Cruz Island stay (4 nights/5 Days)
• Hostel North Seymour, Lobo Marino y Duncan N. 258, Puerto Ayora. 4 night stay for 2 people ($221.76 total, or $110.88 each). Complimentary breakfast and water bottle re-fills included. I booked through Expedia.com. in January (5 months before my stay). Hotel North Seymour is a cash only location, so you pay when you arrive.
• Taxi from docks to hotel (10 min trip) = $2 (you can walk… I had broken luggage)
• Highlands Tour: we used a taxi which cost $45 for two people on a half day trip. This included stops at El Chato Tortoise Reserve, Los Gemelos (collapsed craters), and the Lava tunnels. The El Chato Tortoise ranch also cost $5 to enter.
• North Seymour Dive Trip with Eagle Ray Tours $230 each with Eagleray Tours ( Due to boat repairs, Eagle Ray Tours could not run the trip. They worked with Albatros Tours ( to make sure we got on another boat for the same tour.
• Bartolome Island Tour with Eagle Ray Tours ($235 each). Full day with land and snorkeling excursions.
• Food Expenses can obviously very. We had 3 breakfasts and 2 lunches included between the hotel and tours. I purchased 4 dinners, and 1 lunches for $55 combined (no Alcoholic drinks or sodas)…and maybe another $10 of other stuff like ice cream cones and the like.
• Gratuities: I spent roughly $45 tipping on tours and restaurants.
• Ferries between Islands cost $30 one way. We booked our ferry from Santa Cruz to Isabella, and from Isabella back to Santa Cruz with Eagle Ray Tours. I recommend booking your ferry passage as soon as you can as they do fill up.
Total Cost for the Santa Cruz leg of the trip:
• $737,88 (without ferries to and from the island)

Our group had a great time snorkeling several times per day throughout the western Galapagos Islands. It was super cool! Penguins, sea lions, marine iguana, flightless cormorants, and more sea turtles than we could count plus fish galore.

What It’s Like to Snorkel in the Galapagos Islands
Located 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador, the Galápagos Islands represent one of the most magical places on the planet. Where else in the world can you explore an archipelago born entirely of volcanic eruption and interact with wildlife virtually unafraid of humans? And where can you swim with everything from sea lions to sharks and feel completely at ease?
Don’t take our word for it: See this recent GoPro video captured by Naturalist Guide Martin Loyola on Abercrombie & Kent’s Galápagos Wildlife Adventure for highlights across the various islands we visit, including Floreana, Isabela and Espanola.
What animals are especially unique to see in the Galápagos? A naturalist guide shares her favorites:
The highlight of an 'Eclipse' cruise are the twice-daily excursions, in which you join a small group (no more than 12 guests, with one naturalist guide per group) on board a panga, a sturdy inflatable raft that ferries you from ship to shore - or to the ideal snorkeling spot. On arrival, your group's naturalist guide takes over, pointing out the unique species and geological wonders. Each guide brings his or her own perspective, and your cruise affords you the chance to interact with all of them.
Every day, you enjoy an excursion in the morning and in the afternoon, which may include activities such as exploring on foot, kayaking, snorkeling with equipment provided by the crew or cruising the islands' hidden nooks by panga. Our expertise and intimate knowledge of the islands means plenty of private landings on beaches and coves no other tour operators visit.
