Galapagos Cruise Ships

Families ‘Hard Rock Cafe’ Galapagos Style

Appeals To Any Age

Galapagos Cruise Ships are not all created equal. The Explorer II offers boatloads of learning, fun, and rock-hard science and puts it all together. Where else can you take the entire family and see stunning wildlife displays in their natural habitat? Or snorkel for the nowhere-else-on-earth viewing of the Galapagos marine iguana? And while four feet underwater, you can see some of the rock formation that sustains life and created the islands in the first place.

Two tectonic plates and their actions combine to create the series of islands that scientists believe are approximately five million years old, some much younger. The major islands except for Isabella have a volcano that has contributed to the island and its elevation.

Learning from one of the certified naturalists on your walking tour near shore, you can identify varying kinds of rock where sea meets land. On one of the longer hikes inland, your guide can point out the value of land formation that contributed to the wildlife that lives there.

And this is not a stagnant process either. The principle of evolution that the Galapagos cruise ships vacation offers the exotic traveler at any age, teaches that it is ongoing. Even rock is affected.

Erosion and shaping by the tides, wind, other atmospheric conditions, as well as the animal life co-habiting on rock, soil, and vegetation, demonstrates the ongoing principle of evolution itself. This is the kind of detail that when your family is there in person, is visible in a meaningful way, not to mention in a fun way.

Once back onboard the Explorer II, your family will have plenty of action, be it a fast game of chess in the game room with grandpa, or star gazing on the deck at night. The Galapagos cruise ships’ offerings for family members no matter the age, is an experience no one will forget.
