The place
The perfect combination of adventure travel, agrotourism, human history and conservation
Certified naturalist guides
Every departure is led by a Galápagos National Park certified naturalist, plus a downhill instructor or riding assistant where the route calls for one.
Endemic Miconia forest
The upper island holds a moss-hung shrub forest found nowhere else on earth, and the only highland seabird nesting grounds in the archipelago.
15% to the Petrel Project
A fixed share of every group booking buys traps, bait, invasive vegetation control and constant nest monitoring.
Galápagos Petrel Project
THE ONLY SEABIRD THAT NESTS IN THE HIGHLANDS AND THE TRAVELLER WHO HELPS IT SURVIVE
The Galápagos Petrel digs its burrows into the walls of ravines and collapsed lava tunnels in the farming zone. Introduced rats, feral cats and wild pigs raid the nests, and invasive blackberry seals the entrances shut. Visitors monitor real nests, set or retrieve traps and bait, and see exactly where the money goes.
