It's day 4 of your Galapagos tour. As you walk along the wind and sea-swept volcanic rock of Fernandina Island, you step carefully so as not to disturb the sunning iguanas, seemingly oblivious of your presence. As you approach the water, a sea lion pup splashes playfully in a tide pool. When you're a few yards away, he notices he's got a visitor, and - to your surprise - sidles awkwardly on all four flippers in your direction. You stand perfectly still. The pup stops at your feet and goggles at you with big brown eyes before launching into a game of untie the shoelaces! Sure enough, when your laces are undone and soaked in sea lion slobber, the pup looks up proudly and barks goodbye before waddling back to his tide pool in search of his next adventure.
Welcome to Darwin's natural laboratory, and to your Galapagos Islands adventure. Venture each day from your 20-passenger yacht with a skilled naturalist to a new island and get up close and personal with the stunning terrain and fearless exotic creatures that make the Galapagos their home. Walk volcanic trails and protected highlands and marvel at lava bombs, spatter cones, cinder cones and lava tubes on a hike to the top of an inactive volcano. Come nose to nose with a 600-pound, 150-year-old tortoise, snorkel alongside warm-water penguins and watch as a blue-footed booby dances in courtship. Return each night to a delectable meal and a restful night's sleep in the comfort of your signature yacht.
