AFAR magazine named Classic Journeys’ Galapagos trips “Best Wildlife Encounter”… in the world. Join our island-based adventure to skip the cramped confines of a cruise ship and get up close with the wildlife you came to see. Naturalist guides make sure you have extraordinary wildlife experiences with the blue-footed boobies, Galapagos penguins, baby sea lions, iguanas, sea turtles and giant land tortoises, minus the flocks of tourists. You have abundant chances to walk, kayak, snorkel and relax poolside. You can even go a few steps farther – to the rim of the world’s second largest volcanic caldera, a coffee plantation, and much more. Throughout, you stay in luxury waterfront boutique hotels. And you’ll feel great knowing that your trip supports more than 50 local residents and their families.
