Galapagos Islands Family Adventure

Explore the enchanted islands of the Galapagos, a region teeming with unusual and remarkable wildlife.
Explore the enchanted islands of the Galapagos, a region teeming with unusual and remarkable wildlife. Swim and snorkel with playful sea lions, walk among seemingly ancient giant tortoises and watch as blue-footed boobies perform courtship dances. Special permits allow you to head out in kayaks to explore further and a team of seasoned Naturalists utilize underwater video, a splash-cam and video microscopes to provide the richest possible understanding of the abundant wildlife in this most amazing and unique of destinations. 

The Bushtracks Ranger program adds a special dimension as leaders play, swim, teach and enjoy time with your children to create a balance of time with other like-minded kids as well as time with the family to make life-long memories together.
Day 1: Guayaquil, Ecuador
Depart the U.S. and arrive in Guayaquil this evening. Upon arrival, it's a short drive to your hotel.
Lodging Hotel Hilton Colon
Description Elegance, comfort, security and personalized service are just some of the characteristics that make Hilton Colón Guayaquil, a real five-star city resort hotel. The splendid building is located only five minutes away from José Joaquín de Olmedo International Airport and dominates the city's new booming commercial and financial zone in Ecuador. Our hotel is surrounded by the main shopping centers and offers easy access to the downtown district area.
Day 2: Guayaquil, Ecuador - Galapagos Islands
This morning fly to the Galapagos and immediately board your ship. During lunch, sail to Santa Cruz Island for a magnificent introduction to wildlife. Spend the afternoon exploring mangrove flanked channels and the shoreline of Cerro Dragon, looking for land iguanas, sea lions, a variety of birds and schools of golden rays. (B,L,D)

Lodging: The Islander
Days 3 - 8: Galapagos Islands
While the exact routing depends on the National Park Service, you may visit the following islands: 

Bartolome: This is an enchanting landscape where lava, mangroves and golden sand converge. Great walks, views and a chance to snorkel with penguins. 

Santiago: Santiago provides a chance to see the Galapagos fur seal, along with the opportunity to enjoy the best "tidepooling." 

Santa Cruz: This is home for the Charles Darwin Research Center where you'll learn about vital preservation work. Head up into the highlands to roam the mossdraped lush landscape where wild giant tortoises forage. 

Isabela: The largest island is made up of six volcanoes. Search for land iguanas, enjoy a black sand beach, scramble over broken lava flows or take a Zodiac cruise. 

Fernandina: Investigate Punta Espinoza on Fernandina Island - the youngest island in the Galapagos. It's marine iguana heaven, with Isabela's volcanoes as a dramatic backdrop. 

Floreana: Champion Islet is a dazzling snorkel site and home to a large colony of sea lions. There is nothing more delightful than an hour spent in the clear waters with these creatures! We may find flamingos, pintail ducks and various shorebirds. Hike to a lovely white sand beach, a favorite nesting site for sea turtles. 

Espanola: Meet blue-footed boobies, sea lions galore, marine iguanas which develop particularly vivid coloration, and waved albatross, all living treasures found only on this island. Snorkel and stroll the island's lovely beaches. (B, L, D)
