For Sound On

Day One
Fly in the evening to Denver to prepare for your overnight flight to Quito to begin your adventure.

Day Two
Fly to beautiful Quito with your tour group of 16 people. Enjoy a quick shuttle over to your hotel in the afternoon. Rest up for your adventure!

Day Three
Enjoy a quick morning flight to the Galapagos Islands! With year-round temperatures ranging from 70 to 85 degrees, you will enjoy a perfect climate on your tours. Today you will start your adventure in San Cristobal, one of the 19 Islands comprising Galapagos Islands.

This early afternoon, you will be visiting La Loberia beach which is full of sea lions basking in the sun! With a lack of natural predators, wildlife are not afraid of humans which allows you to get close to an amazing variety of animals and species unique to the Galapagos Islands.

Day Four
Today is the Eco 360 Tour! We will board 2 beautiful yachts to travel to Rosa Blanca Bay known for its crystal clear waters and spectacular scenery. Enjoy the white powder sand or snorkel in the bay. Expect to see beautiful fish and sea turtles!

Then, you will relax in the beautiful Bahia Sardina and eat lunch on the yacht. Next, enjoy the beach and the scenery and wildlife you will encounter! With 97% of the Galapagos Islands designated as a national park, you will experience unparalleled scenery and feel like you are exploring an untouched world! Finally, we will go to Kicker Rock. Enjoy spectacular optional snorkeling with sea turtles, and friendly hammerhead sharks!

Day Five
Board the Via Mar ferry early this morning to travel from San Cristobal to Santa Cruz Island. Santa Cruz is located in the center of the archipelago. You will then check into your hotel close to the coastline.

Then, you are off to Tortuga Bay where you will encounter many Marine Iguanas that can only be found in the Galapagos Islands! These amazing large creatures are the only lizards in the world that live and forage at sea. The adults are black for most of the year, but the males change colors during mating season. The iguanas are slow on land, but are fast swimmers!

The rest of the day is free time where you can enjoy nearby coastline, shops, and plenty of wonderful restaurants within walking distance.

Day Six
First, we travel to see the Galapagos giant tortoises! In 1835, Charles Darwin brought one of these tortoises, Harriet, to Australia from the Galapagos Islands. Harriet died in 2006 at 175 years old! These creatures are the largest species of tortoises in the world and are indigineous to the Galapagos Islands.

There are only 80,000 visitors that frequent the islands over the course of a year, so you will enjoy only very small crowds at all of our destinations! On our way down the mountain, we will make a quick stop at a shop that carves wooden replicas of

the animals you encounter on your trip to make perfect souvenirs. This evening we will walk to dinner close to the hotel!

Day Seven
Today we shuttle up to the north side of the island. Remember to bring your hiking shoes

because we will be hiking on our tour of North Seymour and Las Bachas beach. Walk by the nesting grounds of blue footed boobies. Stroll along the white sand of Bachas beach and enjoy the turquoise waters. You may encounter pink flamingos at the lagoon!

We will then board a boat to snorkel with sea lions and sea turtles and some of the 400 species of fish found at the island! Also, you may observe penguins! (Penguins at the Equator ?!?) This all-day tour will be unforgettable!!

​

Day Eight
