The Galapagos tortoises are slow-moving reptiles with an average long-distance walking speed of 0.3 km/h. However, although feeding giant tortoises move about slowly, browsing with no apparent direction, if they have a purpose, such as moving to water or nesting grounds, they can move with surprising speed and determination given their size. Marked individuals have been reported to have travelled 8 miles in 2 to 3 days.

Turtles are the slowest reptiles on earth. Turtles can live on land and water.Their shells protect them from danger. In danger some turtles, like box turtles, pull their arms, legs and head into their shells. Turtles can close their shell tight so animals that eat turtles can not get in the shell.
On cold days, reptiles are very slow moving and make easy meals for foxes, badgers, buzzards and their many other predators.

Whichever one is the coldest. They are cold blooded so when it's cold they can't work efficient biology usually.
Turtles are probably the least fast on land. They can swim fast though.
