 | Pacific mini-cruise | Galapagos Expedition |
This spectacular itinerary is designed to showcase the incredible eco diversity of the Galapagos Islands. The focus is on remote sites where Charles Darwin pondered evolution, with only one stop at a populated settlement. Three to four hours are spent at each anchorage, allowing ample time to hike, snorkel, kayak, bird-watch and photograph the remarkable flora and fauna. Knowledgeable guides lead you through marked trails at a leisurely pace, explaining the unusual equatorial organisms along the way.
Combining unique features such as al fresco dining with an unrivalled itinerary guided by enthusiastic naturalists, the Galapagos Expedition cruise is a truly memorable experience. Marvel at albatross to giant tortoises, pelicans to iguanas, sea lions to whales sharks - the Galapagos islands are among the top wonders of the world. Read more about the Galapagos Islands.
