Our guide took us here to see the tortoises and this is really a great experience…mind the mud though!!! Is great to see them in their habitat and nevertheless I have had tortoises in my garden in Europe for 60 years nothing prepare you for the size of these giants! And they eat, they have mud baths and they simply go along with their slow life. Very interesting indeed!

This was a great place to see turtles in their natural habitat. The ranch was a little smaller than we expected but there were still a lot of turtles. Our guide spoke English and was fairly knowledgeable. The restaurant sells empanadas for $2. They were really tasty! The lava tunnel was huge and fascinating. We even saw an owl near the exit.

We enjoyed our lunch at the ranch and participated in all kinds of activities offered. The wildlife at the ranch is amazing. Our nature walk was fascinating. Lots of photos of endemic animals especially large tortoises . We also waked through the lava tube and shopped in the gift shop.

Such a lovely place, we saw lots of giant tortoises up close and plenty of photo opportunities. Our guide Ezra was friendly and gave lots of interesting information about the tortoises. The lava tunnel was also a cool experience. One of the highlights of our trip to the Galapagos, definitely recommend 👌

This sightseeing is a must-visit for any Galapagos enthusiast. It's essentially a giant tortoise sanctuary where these magnificent creatures roam freely. Watching these ancient reptiles lumbering through the lush vegetation is an unforgettable experience. This activity can be one of half day plan in the morning or afternoon. Wear your sock to get the boot for free while walking here.

A wonderful place to see the REALLY big and old tortoises roaming freely. You'll spot loads of wild tortoises during the drive to and from the ranch, as well. Before coming here, I'd already been to the tortoise centers on San Cristóbal & Isabela, but I still learned a few new tidbits here, and these were by far the largest tortoises I saw. At the time of my visit, admission was $7, plus tip for the required guide. Pay at the window and you'll be directed to a guide. There is a restaurant on premises as well as a lava tunnel, but I did not go to either of those.
