Transfer Flughafen-Hotel in Galapagos Santa Cruz mit Besuch der Riesenschildkröten

Due to a sudden black out in our residential area, we decided to stay out for 01 night and made a last-minute booking at Amagi Aria Negombo. Since we had visited this hotel twice in the past few months, we didnt think twice, to call the hotel to make a quick booking. Once we reached the hotel, we were pleasantly surprised by the very kind gesture, of the hotel RM, Mr Dinesh, who had instructed the front desk to upgrade us, to a Delux Premium room and it was the same room we stayed during our last visit! We would like to say a big thank you the Front Desk team (sadly I dont remember there names), for providing us a warm welcome and attending to a smooth check in/out, since we were so exhausted and tired when we arrived, after the power outage at our residence. On a very special note, we wish to extend our sincere thanks to Mr Dinesh the Resident Manager, who went out of his way to make us feel very comfortable and relaxed through out our stay. Also a very big thank you, to Chef Manjula and his kitchen team, for the fabulous food that was offered during our stay. We immensely enjoyed our short stay, in the delux premium room as it was spacious, clean, very comfortable and had a balcony with a great lagoon view! We are happy to recommend this hotel to anyone, who wish to enjoy nice food, relax and chill out, either for a short or long stay, as it is located very conveniently, between Negombo town and the Katunayake airport and has easy access to Katunayake express way too! Thanks again for the wonderful hospitality you offered us and we certainly would come back very soon! Peter

We had an amazing big day!! What a wonderful welcome to the Galápagos Islands!! Everything was taken care of for us so no need to worry about bus and ferry tickets or luggage, explored despite the rain (and kept the luggage totally dry) and got to visit the tortoise reserve!!! Thank you again for a wonderful introduction to the Galapagos!!!

Please note that on arrival in Baltra you expect a slow process at the airport and that an expensive fee is payable to enter

Well organized and awesome experience. My only negative comment is that this is well overpriced for what it is, but if you want a hassle-free experience, then this is perfect. Our guide, Jefferson, was super friendly and informative, and overall a great pleasure.

This tour made getting from the airport in Baltra to Puerto Ayora in Santa Cruz a breeze! Jefferson my guide was friendly and knowledgeable! Wonderful experience to see the tortoises, los gemelos and lava tunnels along the ride.

Our Tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. He was eager to help. Certainly would recommend to other travelers

Guide was wonderful ! Perfect way to start your galapogas trip!! Prompt and seamless to once picked up with a sign !

Andres is the best tour guide ever!! He took care of us from beginning to end. He helped us line up everything that we needed and our trip could not have run smoother. Highly recommend Andres Herrera, we learned so much about the islands from him and his wife.

Good way to maximize your time when seeing into Santa Cruz on the way to Porto Ayroyo. Our guide Jefferson was great!!!

This is an excellent way to transfer from the Baltra airport and experience the Galapagos on Day 1! It was just my college-age daughter and myself for this private transfer. Andres and the driver, Jose, met us at baggage claim and made the process of bus, ferry and water taxi so easy because we just had to follow them - any fees were taken care of. Andres was very knowledgeable about the island. Seeing the giant tortoises so close was incredible and very special by having a private guide to tell us about them and their contributions to the island. The lava tunnels are in the same location and also a great experience. It was raining pretty hard but they give you rain boots. So happy we booked this!
