Trip Overview: 

This trip includes a four night cruise of the wonderful Galapagos Island plus a visit to Ecuador's capital city Quito. The Galapagos Islands are a nature lover’s paradise where the animals have no fear of humans. Swim and snorkel with penguins and turtles as friendly sea lions twist and turn around you and their inquisitive pups frolic in the surf. On land step over clumps of tightly packed marine iguanas, marvel at the size of the giant tortoises and watch the blue-footed boobies dance whilst pterodactyl-like frigate birds soar overhead. A trip to the islands is one of the most unforgettable experiences you are ever likely to have.
