Nine exclusive safari-style tents with views over Santa Cruz island and the Pacific

Galapagos Safari Camp is a 55-hectare farm in the highlands of Santa Cruz Island bordering the national park, 30 minutes from the sea. The farm is rich in birdlife with finches, warblers, mockingbirds, Galapagos doves, egrets and owls — tortoises also make frequent visits.
The camp has nine safari tents perched on a hill, providing comfort and privacy in the breathtaking wilderness. All tents have a balcony with views of the park and the ocean — they are spacious, attractively decorated and each has a private bathroom with hot shower.
Guests can gather by the fireplace in the main living room to view the sunsets in the evening, taste the chef´s creative dishes in the panoramic dining room or enjoy the tranquility of the infinity pool with fabulous ocean views.
The camp is a perfect base from which to explore the islands where private guiding, full day excursions to other islands, inland walks, horse trekking and diving can all be organised. Similarly, it can offer a relaxing and peaceful extension after a Galapagos cruise.
When to visit
