Is the Galapagos one of your bucket list destinations? When you arrive in this place of unparalleled beauty, do you want to ensure you explore as much of it as you possibly can? Then our 14-day Complete Galapagos package is ideal for you.
Taking in four islands over two weeks, you’ll get to dive in various genuinely unique locations and uncover the flora and fauna that inspired Charles Darwin 187 years ago, changing mankind’s entire understanding of life on this planet.
From the El Chato Tortoise Reserve to the sea lion covered beaches in San Cristobal, you’ll have ample time to explore all the iconic sites of the Galapagos Islands.
The remote nature of the Galapagos Archipelago means that for many guests, a visit here is a once-in-a-lifetime experience — our Complete Galapagos option will surely be an adventure you’ll never forget.
Of all the incredible creatures in the Galapagos, it is perhaps the hammerhead sharks that generate the most excitement among our guests. Our 8-day Shark Encounters tour option will bring you to the Galapagos’ most frequented shark sites to get up close to hammerheads.
But it isn’t just the legendary schools of scalloped hammerheads that inhabit the waters around Santa Cruz, you’ll also spot black and white-tipped reef sharks and the elusive Galapagos sharks. If sharks aren’t your thing…never fear! Those who don’t want to dive near sharks can spend their days getting close to other beautiful animals, such as sea lions, colorful reef fish, turtles, various types of rays, and even manta.
Worried you don’t have the diving experience required? If you aren’t yet certified, join us for a PADI Open Water Diver course. You’ll spend a few days learning all about diving and honing your skills, including open water dives to blow your first bubbles!
