In Darwin’s footsteps
After the success of our previous Alumni tours to the Galapagos we are delighted to offer this destination again, in this very special year marking the 200th anniversary of Darwin’s birth and 150 years since the publication of his seminal work On the Origin of Species.
The Islands and the Andes
The South American archipelago of the Galapagos Islands is home to an amazing variety of wildlife and birds, many species unique, while Ecuador remains one of the most fascinating countries of this diverse continent.
Our own private motor yacht
This is a very special tour offering a winning combination of colonial cities, stunning scenery and “The Enchanted Islands” made famous by Darwin. To maximize comfort and flexibility we have exclusively chartered our own expedition motor yacht for our 8 day Galapagos cruise. This is an outstanding ecological experience.
For those that have the time, we have included an optional tour of the Ecuadorian Amazon. This is a journey to another world, a world of verdure, colourful bird life and ecological adventure
