Jan 25 2016 Galapagos Cruise M/V Galapagos Legend 4 days / 3 nights A Day 1: Monday - Baltra Airport Departure from Quito or Guayaquil to Baltra Island (2,30 hours flight). Arriving in Galapagos, passengers are picked up at the airport by our natural guides and taken (ten minute bus drive) to the pier to board the M/V Galapagos Legend. PM Highlands Pit Craters (Santa Cruz Island) Dry landing. After a 45-minute bus ride, visitors arrive atsanta Cruz highlands, located to the northwest of Puerto Ayora town, in this area a giant tortoises reserve locates. These enormous and slow-moving reptiles are responsible for the island s name and perhaps their fame. Therefore, approaching them is a lifetime experience. These reptiles can weigh between 250 and 300 kilograms (550-660 pounds) and can live up to 150-200 years. Additionally, travelers can enter inside surprising lava tubes, remains of past eruptions; the visit also includes Pit Craters, creations formed by the collapse of underground chambers. It is a great place to spot vermilion flycatchers in an endemic scalesia forest. Difficulty level: easy Type of terrain: flat & muddy sometimes (depending on season) Duration: 45 minutes drive / 1,30 walk Day 2: Tuesday Egas Port (Santiago Island) Wet landing. Egas Port is a black volcanic sand beach, visited by Darwin in 1835. The first section of the trail is formed of volcanic ash (eroded tuff) and the other half is an uneven terrain of volcanic basaltic rock. The unique, truly striking layered terrain of Santiago shore is home to a variety of animals including the bizarre yellow-crowned night heron and marine wildlife including lobster, starfish and marine iguanas grazing on algae beds alongside Sally light-foot crabs. It is easy to see colonies of endemic fur seals swimming in cool water volcanic rock pools. Difficulty level: intermediate Type of terrain: flat & semi rocky. 3 / 9

Duration: 1h30 walk / 1 hour snorkeling PM Bartolome Island Dry or wet landing. Discover a fascinating landscape resembling the moon, formed by different volcanic parasitic cones, lava bombs, spatter formations, cinder cones; hike to the summit for impressive views of the closer islands, including the eroded tuff cone named Pinnacle Rock (perhaps the beast known postcard from Galapagos). Here is possible to encounter lava lizards, and blue-footed boobies. Beach time in Bartolome is a great opportunity to snorkel and have a close look to penguins, sea turtles and white-tipped reef sharks among a great variety of colorful fish. Possibly the finest snorkeling experience; the water here is generally clear, without too much waves. Due to its geographical location, is immediately noticeable a lack of vegetation, just pioneer plants are observed. They include tiquilia nesiotica (silver look bush) which is endemic to the island and chamaesyce (known as sand mat or spurge). Difficulty level: intermediate Type of terrain: 372 steps trail Duration: 1,30 hours walk / 1 hour snorkeling Day 3: Wednesday Dragon Hill (Santa Cruz Island) Dry landing. Walk by a brackish lagoon to see flamingos. The trail leads across typical dry zone vegetation. Keeping up until Dragon Hill, see an important nesting ground for endemic land iguanas, offering lovely views of the anchored boats and neighboring islands. The forest is home to mockingbirds, Darwin s finches, yellow warblers, and Galapagos doves. Difficulty level: intermediate Type of terrain: rocky Duration: 2 hours walk PM North Seymour Island Dry landing. Off the Baltra Island and not far from Santa Cruz Island, locates North Seymour. This landmass was formed by a series of underwater volcanic eruptions, which deposited layers of lava on the ocean floor. After arrival and an approximately two hours walk, large nesting colonies of blue-footed boobies, great frigate birds, and swallow-tailed gulls can be seen. Land Iguanas and on a lucky day Galapagos snakes can be encounter along the path. Difficulty level: intermediate Type of terrain: rocky ground Duration: 2 hours walk / 30 minute snorkeling Day 4: Thursday - Bachas Beach (Santa Cruz Island) Wet landing. On the north side of Santa Cruz; behind the beach lies two small flamingo ponds were iguanas sunbathe, see coastal birds, Darwin finches, mockingbirds, and gulls, as well as interesting native vegetation like red and black mangrove, salt bushes. This beach is one of the main sea turtles nesting sites in the Galapagos. A turtle can lay eggs 3 or 4 times pear season with an average of 70 eggs each time. At this paradisiacal site, we will also find the remains of barges that were sank long time ago, when the United States Navy operated a base during World War II on Baltra Island. Local people modified the word barges to Bachas. Difficulty level: easy Type of terrain: sandy Duration: 1 hour walk / 1 hour snorkeling / beach time Baltra Island airport After the visit, passengers will be transferred to the airport for return flight to Guayaquil or Quito Jan 28 2016 SHUTTLE IN - GUAYAQUIL // BAL Jan 28 2016 ORO VERDE GUAYAQUIL STANDARD ROOM - BS Jan 29 2016 TRANSFER OUT 4 / 9

Visiting the Galapagos Islands There are two visits per day to the islands, one in the morning and another in the afternoon. Our naturalist guides will take you directly to the most fantastic and emblematic locations on each island and introduce you to the mysterious and wonderful secrets of its flora, fauna and geology, walking, hiking, snorkeling or kayaking. You will be part of a group (up to 16 people) named: albatross, boobies, cormorants, dolphins or other. Depending on the itinerary, you will also alternate these activities with swimming on colorful sand beaches, watching sea lions on a rocky shore, taking a tour of the Darwin Research Station, and souvenir shopping. To get to our various sites, we have two types of landing: Dry Landings: Passengers step directly from a dinghy onto rocks or a dock. We recommend: walking shoes. Special care is highly recommended when walking on wet rocks. Wet Landings: The dinghy edges toward the beach, where you step into knee-deep water assisted by crew members and guides. We recommend: swimming suit or shorts, walking shoes or sandals, towel (provided by the crew while disembarking) General Activities: Unlike the usual cruise, your visit to the Galápagos Islands offers a variety of activities, so you must come prepared. The main leisure interest is admiring the wildlife and the amazing topographic features. Various hikes along well-marked paths have been chosen to offer you the best views and sites. Hiking may involve various degrees of difficulty (easy, intermediate or difficult: see below for details). While hiking, you will be able to bird-watch, take pictures, stroll on the beach, take walks, visit museums and naturalist parks, as well as a trek up mountainsides. Other activities include snorkeling, kayaking, and swimming, so for each activity, you must take appropriate clothing and gear with you. Go Galapagos - KleinTours is not liable for accidents at excursions on water sports, children are under parent s responsibility. Level of difficulty in hiking: We have divided the levels of difficulty in three groups: 1) Easy: Flat terrain without any climbing. The surface can be rocky, though usually it means sand or dirt. The hike doesn t last more than one hour. 2) Intermediate: Flat terrain or with some slope. The surface is mostly rocky and/or slippery. The hike lasts about one and a half hours. 3) Difficult: A hike on steep surfaces, mostly comprised of rocks and broken up lava flows. The hikes usually last between two and three hours. Please note: The degree of difficulty gives a general idea of what to expect. Most hikes are all right for the majority of people and the degree of difficulty should not be a deterrent to taking part in them. Only if you have some major handicap you should consider staying aboard for the hardest hikes. Please consult your guide if you have any questions. Your Cruise: The best way to experience the Galapagos Islands is by cruising on board m/v Galapagos Legend, m/y Coral I & Coral II.
