8-Nights Ecuador Galapagos Adventure Cruising on Western Loop

Follow in the footsteps of Charles Darwin on this small-group adventure through the enchanted islands of the Galapagos. Take in the natural wonders and rich wildlife on Santa Cruz, Isabela, Fernandina, and Santiago. The western islands are more volcanically active, studded with craters, and a rippled lava landscape, as well as stunning beaches. Hiking, snorkeling, and kayaking under the guidance of MT Sobek's dedicated naturalist guide gets you amazingly close to the wildlife both underwater and on land. After each action-filled day, return to your intimate 16-passenger private catamaran to rest and re-energize.
