Galapagos Land-Based
Explore these wildlife rich islands from a different perspective as you ocean kayak, hike, snorkel, and investigate beaches in areas unvisited by most tourists. Accommodations include beachfront eco-lodges, quaint hotels, and optional camping at our Galapagos Private Camp, which boasts sunset views over the coast. Galapagos Land-Based tours are an excellent option for active and adventurous travelers, people who are prone to sea sickness, and for people who prefer traveling to less visited areas in small private groups.
