The Big 15

From giant tortoises to little tropical penguins, the most distinctive feature of the Galápagos is its wildlife. These animals live within a vast archipelago, among multiple islands and astonishingly diverse habitats. To tailor our itineraries and enable guests to view the best balance of Galápagos fauna, we sought consensus among 20 top naturalist guides to choose the archipelago’s most unique and fascinating animals. This resulted in our list of the iconic Big 15 that form the heart of our itineraries. The Big 15 list empowers guests to find the most attrac-tive route for their visit.
