A giant Galapagos tortoise ranch, Rancho Primicias lets visitors walk the land where tortoises roam free. The Galapagos tortoise is one of the most iconic animals of the Galapagos Islands, and no trip there is complete without seeing one. This particular species of tortoise can live as long as 150 years and grow to weigh over 400 pounds. Visitors can walk around the ranch, take pictures with the docile creatures, and explore flora and fauna while there. There’s a small cafe where visitors can refresh and have a snack as well as a souvenir shop to take a little bit of Ranchos Primicias back home with them.
