Signature Trips

Spend more time among the islands, on and in the sea. You will have the opportunitiy to develop a sense of place, and to engage with the island’s natural inhabitants. Tune into the spirit of Galapagos.

Out cruises are all tailored to provide a meaningful connection the Galapagos and the wildlife. After experiencing several standard cruises, we noticed that excursions often catered to the least adventurous or physically capable travelers. We recognized that many travelers dream of visiting the Galapagos, viewing it as more than just another destination on their list. These individuals possess a solid understanding of the region and seek enriching experiences. They appreciate knowledgeable naturalist guides who can answer challenging questions and foster a deeper connection to the unique wonders of the Galapagos.

Our cruises will give you greater opportunities to hike, kayak, paddle board and swim than with most others.

We offer that experience.
