The Galapagos Islands, a natural sanctuary

The Galapagos Islands for centuries have been the wake & inspiration of many scientists and scholars, including Charles Darwin, Jacques Cousteau and a legacy of geologists, vulcanoligists, biologists thoughout the years.

The Islands invite nature travellers from all over the planet to enjoy close wildlife encounters and a serene peace of not causing fear to the animals who greet us into their haven and are the most gracious hosts.

In this section of our website we share our knowledge base of information on the Islands, from their formation, arrival of species, evolution, and of course a wildlife inventory and what the visitor can expect to find when joining a cruise or tour around the archipelago of Las Encantadas.
