Galápagos Magic Camp, Galápagos Islands

There is literally nowhere else on Earth that you can glamp alongside giant tortoises. A stay at this relaxing wildlife sanctuary camp, nestled in the Santa Cruz highlands, is a truly immersive experience. The retreat is designed to showcase the singular natural wonder of Ecuador’s famous archipelago, with cosy safari-style tents and treehouses barely getting in the way of the region’s wildlife. There are hundreds of giant tortoises who roam freely and comfortably throughout the camp, while human facilities include an open-air lodge, a lava cave restaurant and crackling campfire – perfect for an after-dinner tipple.
