Area Daily: Private Yacht Trip through the Galapagos Islands

The magical Galápagos Islands are truly “a world unto themselves,” as Darwin wrote, and among the most precious habitats on earth. One of the wonders of these islands is how unafraid of humans Galápagos wildlife is—you can walk right among these gentle creatures and snorkel with friendly sea lions and tiny penguins.

Spend 8-days aboard a private yacht with a group of friends exploring these enchanted islands. Wilderness Travel will customize a trip for you with your own private crew, including your own personal naturalist.

So head ashore for hikes among nesting blue-footed boobies and lava lizards, snorkeling with sea lions and penguins, sea kayaking in mangrove lagoons, and savoring one of the world's quintessential natural history adventures. Back onboard, enjoy a delicious meal and glass of wine prepared by your private chef.

This is nature at its best!
