No place on earth offers the unique opportunity to participate in nature’s evolution as readily as Galapagos island travel does. The archipelago is noted for its rich array of species, their unique adaptations to their environment, coupled with a geographic expanse that is breathtaking.
Galapagos tours through walking or hiking, bipedal style, are conducted in small groups, no more than 16, allowing for an intimate experience of nature as well as dedicated tour guides that educate the traveler. It is the best way to see the authorized areas of the Galapagos National Park or the Charles Darwin Station.
Tour guides illuminate the various topographical idiosyncrasies, distinctive birds, flora and fauna, that the Galapagos island chain is known for. Hiking the Galapagos often provides adventure travelers a personal siting of the Marine Iguana, the Blue-footed Booby perhaps, the Waved Albatross or the Galapagos Penguin, among many other species.
Since the Galapagos islands were formed from Volcanic eruptions far beneath the Pacific Ocean, the rolling hillside and rocks sport prolific vegetation both plants and trees as well. Hiking tours offer the best opportunity to see some of the prodigious growth on the islands. Walking is intimate and personal, whether you are with friends, family, or strangers. Being ‘at one’ with nature is a given. The experience is easily shared through the beauty of the area and our naturalist guides who provide detailed information.
While visiting the Galapagos islands you can also enjoy the Interpretation Center located on San Cristobal Island. This informative destination provides insight to the balance between humans and nature, its delicate tensions and ultimate harmony. And a highlight of your visit can be the Charles Darwin Station, with itinerary offerings on our schedule for your convenience.
Hiking the Galapagos Islands is unparalleled in adventure and destination travel. We at Galapagos Island Vacations offer the most informative, educational, and pleasurable travel for those seeking to experience history, nature, beauty, and adventure.
