7 Night Galapagos Adventure Cruise| May - Nov 2023 - 2024 | Legendary Wildlife and Nature.
The places you visit play a starring role throughout every journey, and planning your Galapagos cruise stops is equally important. While this list isn’t exhaustive of every nook-and-cranny you’ll explore along the way, we’ve included descriptions of key ports and places to help you get to know the wilderness areas, landmark locations, notable regions, and coastal towns. What can you expect? The Galápagos Islands belong to the animals. From millions of years ago to now, each island is filled with discoveries and its own endemic species. Visit the Charles Darwin Research Station for an inside peek at the conservation efforts of the giant tortoise. On Isla Floreana, paddle board alongside sea lions or stroll the white sand beaches as rays relax on the sea floor. Snorkel or kayak along Isla Isabela’s dramatic landscape of eroded tuff cones. Hike Isla Santa Cruz’s Dragon Hill, eyes peeled for expert lounging land iguanas and maybe a flamingo or two. Note, because the islands are so isolated and protected, there are regulations regarding activities inside the park and foods that you may bring with you. Please review these guidelines.

Travel Advisory: We understand there is increased caution around events in Ecuador. Please note that travel remains safe in the areas we visit on our itinerary. The concern due to organized crime in the country is highly focused on certain areas, and has not affected our travelers, destinations and operations in any way. Our operations continue as normal on the mainland and in the Galapagos Islands and will do so into the future. Our company has been actively working over the last months to analyze and implement additional measures to keep our teams and guests safe, with recommendations made by specialist consultants.
The government and the Ministry of Tourism have trained hundreds of police officers who are distributed around the country and in specific areas frequented by tourists in certain cities. The Ministry has also worked on safety outreach programs and training with local governments and the entire industry over the last months.
