  • Visit to this enchanted island is all about slow tourism, about Galapagos as it was, about pirates, love and mysterious legends.
  • Visit Isabela is not only the largest but the most volcanically active island in the chain, This is where you will be able to get a close look at and understand a little more about the very source of the Galapagos Islands
  • On Santa Cruz you can relax and soak up the atmosphere in the charming port of Puerto Ayora, the major link between the islands and the mainland.
  • Visit to San Cristobal this is the place to see sea lions, are also something to see, and you will have a chance to get up close to these spectacular birds with their red chests, as we kayak and snorkel in the nearby waters

What travelers are saying

"WOW, Explorer Chicks….just wow! What can I say? Where do I start? This trip to Moab was absolutely amazing. I was not sure what exactly to expect but our two guides, Savannah and Lindsey, superseded expectations beyond my imagination. It seemed like the entire trip, I was being catered to, from the beautiful condo we stayed at, to the deliciously healthy meals they prepared down to the plethora of snack options they had for the group. All we had to do is wake up, get ready and the entire day was thoughtfully planned and arranged for us. I have a gluten allergy also and our guides made certain that part was taken care of, without issue (Thanks a million) because that meant a lot to me. I went alone but met some wonderful women and left with some likeminded new friends. What an amazing experience, Savannah and Lindsey were the perfect blend of adventure, hospitality, experience, consideration and humor. I wasn't sure if I would like Explorer Chicks….now I am convinced this is the type of tribe I belong with. Looking forward to another adventure with Explorer Chicks, thank you for such a memorable and absolutely perfect adventure! Kimberly Moab UT trip 3/31/22"
