What Makes Galapagos Safari Camp Family-Friendly
Cited as one of The 18 Best Family Summer Vacations to Take by Conde Nast Traveler, and one of five ‘kid proof’ destinations by Town and Country, Galapagos Safari Camp is a popular choice for families who appreciate personalized service, flexible schedules and the freedom to explore the Galapagos Islands at their own pace.
Our aim is to provide experiences, amenities and service that make life easier for children, parents and grandparents.
“The one comment we get the most is that ‘I feel at home and I feel looked after’ which in my books is the highest compliment that we can get. It’s not our guests fitting around our schedules but it’s about us creating an itinerary that is going to be life-changing for them”
Stephanie Bonham-Carter, Co-Founder.

Central Location
The location of our camp – bang in the middle of the Galapagos archipelago – offers families the best of both worlds. Its close proximity to uninhabited islands and visiting sites on Santa Cruz offers a wildlife experience that is both practical and enjoyable for children. As parents ourselves, we understand that travel time plays an important role in a family vacation. No child likes to be confined to boat cabins and vehicles for hours upon end.
Our setting – 55-acres in the forested highlands – also gives children the space and opportunity to run around freely at the end of each day. At Galapagos Safari Camp, parents need not worry about their kids getting cabin fever or seasick at night.

Family Travel Expertise
Our owners’ children, Lawrence and Jasmine, were born and brought up at the Camp for the first years of their lives, giving us both privileged and practical knowledge when it comes to helping you plan your family adventure.
Our Family Safaris include activities and experiences that have been tried and tested (and loved!) by Lawrence and Jasmine, as well as their friends. However, we understand that no two families are alike and planning a Galapagos family vacation that caters to every age group and generation can be daunting at the best of times. That’s where we step in.
Our Safari Designers understand how precious family vacations are and how important it is to get them right. Our goal is to keep every member of the family happy and tailor the safari accordingly. After all, if the kids aren’t having fun, no one’s having fun!

Press Reviews
FT HOW TO SPEND IT
High up in the hills of Santa Cruz, the camp has something rather magical about it.
TATLER
This place is a one-off: a dashing cockscomb of comfort and style atop a 400-metre ridge in the highlands of Santa Cruz… be careful not to trip over the meandering tortoises.
EVENING STANDARD
An inventive nightly tasting menu from the on-site organic farm or nearby sea was easily the best food we ate on the islands.
