To reach Isabela Island, you have non-stop flights between Quito and Baltra which take a little over two hours. However, there are normally only 1 or 2 daily direct flights out to Galapagos from Quito. We highly recommend to book in advance the direct Avianca 1680 flight at 07h00, upon arriving at Baltra Island at 08h12. We have booked a private transfer will departure from the airport with the public bus for 15 minutes and embark on a short ferry ride across the Itabaca Channel to Santa Cruz Island. From there, a private bus will get you to Puerto Ayora in approximately one hour. TBC there is only one transfer option will depart from the airport at 11h00 AM. your flight must get before this time. Relax a couple of hours around the port. Ferry leaves from the Puerto Ayora dock on San Cruz Island and arrives at the Puerto Villamil dock on Isabela Island. You need to be 15 minutes before 15h00 to check luggage. The beat trip will take approximately 2 hours, depending on the weather.

Ingala Card before travelling to Galápagos Islands

How do I get a Galápagos transit control card? There are two ways of obtaining your card: - Pre-register for your card online in advance of your trip and pick it up at the airport. You can pre-register for your card online via the official government website following the link. - Register and purchase your card on the day of travel at Quito or Guayaquil airport.
