Galapagos Island Tours
Think beautiful mounds of lush green that emerge from clear, turquoise water on a perfect day – these are the Galapagos Islands. Situated in the Pacific Ocean lies the archipelago of volcanic islands that offer travellers fascinating wildlife, amazing weather and unique landscapes. There are very few places on earth where you can get this close to animals without them even flinching. The wilderness offers an incredible array of unique animals, many of which are endemic to the island; including Galapagos land iguanas, marine iguana, sea cucumbers, Galapagos sea lions, flightless cormorant, blue-footed booby, Galapagos mockingbirds and more. This is the perfect destination for those looking for a relaxing, but intriguing getaway – and it’s best to get there soon while the wilderness is still somewhat pristine and untouched.
