Item Description

As a company passionately devoted to the natural world - observing it, learning about it, protecting it and sharing it - we believe most people would very much like to see the place which inspired Charles Darwin to present the world with the groundbreaking theory of evolution.

Galápagos is unlike any other environment on earth. Not just because of the diversity of animals you'll see, or their staggering numbers — it's their sublime indifference to you observing them. You will see Tortoises – including the legendary Lonesome George, the last of his species on earth – roam freely. Blue-footed boobies perch on rocks, their blue feet brilliant in the sun. The skies are filled with wheeling, courting, red-throated frigatebirds. The lava rocks are piled high with motionless marine iguanas. A mind-boggling array of creatures, untainted by fear, live in a paradise of azure waters, white beaches and cool mangrove stands. You’ll see the famous finches of the islands and swim with doe-eyed sea lion pups. It’s a privilege to see these creatures in this place, manifesting such distinctive behaviors. Life is good in Galápagos for humans too, aboard our comfortable, well-equipped expedition ships Polaris and Islander.

This fantastic expedition includes a category 2 cabin for 2 people and you will have access to all the facilities on board including the onboard staff (naturalists, undersea specialists, experts in their fields) and tools for exploration (underwater cameras, kayaks, zodiacs, etc.).

This is truly a once in a life time opportunity!
