Galapagos Tours
We offer a variety of tours to the Galapagos Islands.
These packages feature natural history, incredible
wildlife experiences, your own guide, and excellent
service. Our Active Galapagos Multi Sport
Adventure and Galapagos Island Diving feature fixed
departure dates and are specifically designed for small
group travel.
Deciding between a cruise and a land based trip
depends on the traveler. Both experiences have
their benefits. There are only a few islands that
due to distance cannot be visited during a land based
trip. The reality is the islands visited and
wildlife viewed is the same between many boats and land
based tours. With the new park regulations
regarding diving this is the option for travelers who
wish to mix divers and non-divers. Our programs
can be easily modified to make everyone happy.
Land based trips are more what many travelers think a
vacation should be. We provide a flexible less
regimented way of viewing the Galapagos. You are
able to discuss with your guide what time you want to
begin your day, you can decide how much time hiking,
snorkeling or kayaking even how many dives you do a day.
Your excursions can be as long or as short as you
prefer. Generally speaking you have more time to
explore the island you visit on a land based itinerary
as you are not on a strict schedule. At the end of
the day you return to a comfortable hotel or home where
you have the evening to relax, enjoy a glass of wine in
a Jacuzzi, stroll along the water or maybe a night out
dancing.
These trips are perfect for those people who have a
tendency towards sea sickness, those traveling with
children, anyone who needs to have phone and internet
access throughout their stay as well as those with
limited time in the Galapagos as they can be designed
around you.
The National Park has determined that land based tours
are one of the best options for preserving the Galapagos
for the future. These tours help the Galapagos by
putting money into the local economy and employing local
people.
"What an amazing, wonderful
experience! Omar & staff you were fantastic!
You took amazing care of us! What a wonderful
guide our trips planned for us were perfect - just
enough beach, just enough adventure, just enough sun,
just enough fun! All in all the Galapagos
experience was amazing and the villa was equally
impressive! We knew the wildlife would be
wonderful - But the services we received who knew such
luxury existed in such a remote location!" ... Maritz
