Travel Galapagos Islands & Ecuador

Getting Around Puerto Baquerizo M

To get to the farming center of El Progreso

8km into the highlands, hire a taxi $2 (one($20), walk or hitchhike, for the final 10km

ride to the visitor site of El Junco Lagoon.

Some taxi drivers are licensed to give tours

of the lagoon.

In Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, taxis hang

out along the Malecón and have fixed rates

to island destinations, but don’t always stick

to them. They’ll take you to La Lobería, El

Progreso, El Junco Lagoon, La Galapaguera

and Puerto Chino.
