Description

Discover the enchanted Galapagos Islands which offer endless opportunities to witness a unique abundance of wildlife in a setting unlike any other on the planet. Due to its isolation, the Galapagos formed a natural sanctuary that preserves species, allowing them to evolve over countless millennia. This is one of the few places on earth that allows such close and intimate contact with wildlife. The tour also provides many benefits to local communities and is socially and environmentally responsible. Be part of an educational and inspirational journey of a lifetime in one of the most fiercely protected marine wilderness’ in the world!

Dream fulfilled

Just fulfilled a lifetime dream of traveling to the Galapagos islands and they lived up to all our expectations. The trip was just me and my wife along with a spectacular guide named Gabriel Salas who was extremely knowledgeable about the history, biology and ecology of the islands. He was super organized and made all the arrangements between activities of snorkeling, hiking, biking, kayaking and travel between the islands absolutely seamless and he was just a pleasure to be with. We saw such an array of animals and fauna we are still processing it all. We highly recommend Gabriel and this trip which was an 8 day small group land adventure through a collaboration between Adventure Life & Adventure Journeys.
