Galapagos tortoises can weigh up to 550 pounds and measure almost 5 feet (1.5 m). Usually, they are found resting under trees or taking mud baths. Don’t forget to turn off the flash to take photos and keep a distance of at least 6.5 feet (2 m). You can also observe black-necked stilts, finches and many guava trees – their fruits are a delight for tortoises.
Accompanied by the guide, you will enter the lava tunnels and get to know how they came to be and the different formations inside them. The main point of the tour to El Chato Reserve is seeing the giant tortoises of Galapagos walk free in a natural environment.
