Our six-day tour of the Galapagos Islands begins in Guayaquil, the closest major city to the archipelago.

We’ll also have breathtaking views from the crater’s edge, b...

Later we’ll visit the Charles Darwin Research Station, a short walk from the town of Puerto Ayora. Here you can learn more about conservati...
