About the trip
This nine-day trip from G Adventures unfolds across several Galápagos islands, combining active exploration and wildlife encounters. Starting on San Cristóbal Island, the itinerary includes snorkelling at Tijeretas and the natural pool of Concha de Perla, places where sea lions are often a curious presence. A hike up the Sierra Negra volcano on Isabela Island offers changing vistas and a close look at volcanic landscapes.
Visits to the Charles Darwin Research Station on Santa Cruz Island reveal ongoing conservation efforts, while travel between islands is by public speedboat, adding an informal touch to the journey. Domestic flights within Ecuador and the Galápagos link the various islands, with group travel kept intimate by a maximum of sixteen participants.
The trip strikes a balance between activity and discovery, with the opportunity to swim, snorkel, and witness wildlife complemented by time to acknowledge the conservation challenges faced by this unique archipelago. It's a practical, straightforward way to connect with one of the world's most talked-about wildlife destinations.
