Ecuador & Galapagos in Comfort and Style

Tailor Made Sample Itinerary No.3

Galapagos in Comfort

We have designed this extra-special itinerary for those wishing to tour the Ecuadorean Andes in style and visit the Galapagos in comfort, staying on land rather than aboard a boat. The stylish, distinctive colonial haciendas we have chosen are redolent of Ecuador’s rich Inca and Spanish colonial past, and our pleasant Galapagos hotel offers the highest degree of comfort to be found on the islands while providing daily excursions by boat. No seasickness, but plenty of island enjoyment is assured.
