Galápagos Like an Insider: Custom Land-Based Tours with a Local Naturalist Guide

Hi everyone,

My name is Alex Arregui. I’m a marine biologist and certified naturalist guide with nearly 30 years of experience living, working, and guiding in the Galápagos Islands.

I hold a master’s degree from the UK and have conducted research for the Charles Darwin Research Station.

I help travelers experience the magic of the Galápagos in a relaxed and authentic way, avoiding the crowds and rigid schedules of cruise ships. Instead of a fixed itinerary, I design fully customized land-based trips tailored to your interests, pace, and budget.

Because I live here, I work directly with trusted local boat captains, drivers, and family-run hotels that I’ve known personally for many years. This creates a seamless insider experience while directly supporting the local community.

I take care of all the logistics, including:

  • Hand-picked hotel reservations
  • Inter-island speedboats and domestic flights
  • Private or small-group day tours and snorkeling excursions
  • Airport assistance and private transfers

Whether you’re planning a family vacation, honeymoon, or island-hopping adventure with friends, I’ll help make your trip completely stress-free from start to finish.

If you’re thinking about visiting the Galápagos, feel free to send me a private message with your tentative dates and what you’re looking for. I’d be happy to suggest a custom itinerary and provide a quote with no obligation.
