One of our operators in Ecuador has just opened up a new facility called Magic Galapagos. Located in the quiet and cool highlands of Santa Cruz Island, this very special safari-style camp is available exclusively to their clients. With just six raised, walk-in, en-suite safari tents and four tree houses, guests feel that they have their own private hideaway. The only crowds they will see are the millions of stars in the night sky, the only noises they hear will be the gentle breezes and the measured passage of giant tortoises.
Magic Galapagos is situated amidst a giant tortoise sanctuary, allowing travelers to experience one of the Islands’ most iconic species right outside of their tents. This exclusive retreat is only 30 minutes’ drive from all of the other properties in Puerto Ayora, Galapagos Islands’ largest settlement, and all of the famous water attractions are easily accessible. While at Magic Galapagos, guests can walk the peaceful grounds, observe resident wildlife, explore the onsite lava tubes, find a cozy spot to read, or simply enjoy the gorgeous views.
Tent sites were chosen to ensure the most expansive views of the highlands and the turquoise waters, as well as to capture the cooling breeze. Common areas are thoughtfully appointed with cozy nooks, comfortable furniture, and a roaring fire for cool evenings. Sumptuous three-course gourmet meals are served under twilit skies in the main dining area after active Galapagos days, and guests can finish the evening with a candlelit nightcap in one of the property’s lava tubes or on their stargazing meadow deck.
Magic is a place where you will be able to relax and unwind – where you can walk the beautiful mountainside, gaze up at the sparkling heavens and to admire nature.

Reviews for "Immerse yourself in the natural wonders of the Galapagos at the Magic Tented Camp"
1. Emily - 2/5 - I was really excited to stay at the Galapogos magic tented camp based on the pictures and reviews, but unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience for me. The tents were not as clean as I had hoped, and there were several bugs and insects inside. The bathroom facilities were basic and lacked proper maintenance. The food served at the camp was mediocre at best, and I didn't feel like it catered to different dietary preferences. Overall, the camp felt run-down and in need of some serious renovations.
2. John - 1/5 - I had high expectations for the Galapogos magic tented camp, but it turned out to be a complete letdown. The staff seemed disinterested and unhelpful, providing minimal information about the activities and sights in the area. The tents were small and cramped, with uncomfortable bedding that made it impossible to have a good night's sleep. The camp was also quite far from the main attractions, requiring long and expensive transportation. I would not recommend this camp to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay in the Galapogos Islands.
3. Sarah - 2/5 - My experience at the Galapogos magic tented camp was not great. The tents were old and poorly maintained, with broken zippers and leaky roofs. The campsite itself was noisy, with loud music playing late into the night from nearby accommodations. The staff did not seem knowledgeable or enthusiastic about the local wildlife and seemed more interested in making money through additional charges and excursions. The camp lacked basic amenities like Wi-Fi and had limited options for dining. I would suggest looking for other accommodations on the islands for a better experience.
4. Mark - 2/5 - The Galapogos magic tented camp did not live up to its name for me. The tents were not as magical as advertised, with uncomfortable beds and a lack of privacy. The shared facilities were often dirty and not well-maintained. The camp was also located in a less scenic area of the islands, making it inconvenient for exploring the main attractions. The activities offered by the camp were overpriced compared to similar tours in the area. Overall, I would choose another accommodation option for a more enjoyable stay in the Galapogos Islands.
