Galapagos Safari Camp was included in Tatler’s Travel Guide 2010, a curated selection of the 101 best hotels in the world.
The feature highlights the Camp as a rare land-based option in the Galapagos, offering an alternative to traditional cruise itineraries. Set high in the highlands of Santa Cruz, the Camp combines access to the islands’ wildlife with a more grounded and flexible way to experience the archipelago.
Positioned along a ridge overlooking the western islands, the property is described as a one-off, balancing comfort and design with a strong sense of place. The Camp’s small scale, with just nine tents, allows for a more personal and considered experience, both within the property and across the wider itinerary.
The article also notes the Camp’s role as a natural extension to a cruise, offering time to explore on land, whether hiking through the highlands, encountering giant tortoises in their natural habitat, or simply pausing to take in the surrounding landscape.
This place is a one-off: a dashing cockcomb of comfort and style atop a 400-metre ridge in the highlands of Santa Cruz … The views are pure IMAX.
