Live the experience!
Description
The Galapagos Islands are an archipelago in the Pacific Ocean renowned for their unique and unphased wildlife and otherworldly landscapes. The islands belong to the country of Ecuador (situated in northwestern South America) and are located 600 miles (1,000 km) west of the country’s coast. Despite their proximity to the equator, the islands enjoy cooler ocean currents, resulting in an unusual blend of tropical and temperate climates.
The tours we offer here are fulfilled through some of the best-in-class expedition vessels and hotels that are available throughout the islands, providing your clients with plush accommodations, top-tier service, unforgettable experiences and activities, and exquisite gastronomy.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Where are the Galapagos Islands located and how do I get there?
No seasons exist in the Galapagos Islands because they’re along the equatorial line. However, two weather patterns are recognizable yearly: The Hot Season (December to June) and Dry Season (June to November). This means that Galapagos is a year-round destination. Therefore, the best time to visit the islands depends on what your clients want to experience.
What’s the weather like and when is the best time to go to the Galapagos Islands?
Why do some people prefer to explore the archipelago of Galapagos on an expedition vessel?
Are the Galapagos Islands family-friendly? Is there any kind of age restriction for visitors?
The Galapagos is an excellent learning experience for all age groups, though age restrictions do apply to some expedition vessels. Children under 6 years old need special permission from their parents or guardians to board a Galapagos cruise.
Are snorkeling gear and wetsuits provided on the Galapagos expedition vessels?
Is there cell phone coverage and internet on Galapagos?
Yes, there’s cell phone coverage, but only in the vicinity of the inhabited islands. Aboard our expedition vessels, especially when traveling from island to island, cell phone coverage will be non-existent. Due to weak signals, international data roaming does not usually work well in the islands. Wi-Fi is accessible in our expedition vessels.
My clients have special dietary requirements. Can they be met?
When requested in advance, most special dietary requirements can be arranged. Expedition vessels have a more extensive kitchen staff, and they are more likely to be able to accommodate special requests.
