Small ship adventure cruise expert and eco-tourism specialist AdventureSmith Explorations is offering 20% off on its 11- day cruise, Isabela Galapagos Cruise, for travel this December.
“Isabela Galapagos Cruises sell out 6-12 months in advance of (the) travel date,” according to AdventureSmith.
“Our tours offer a range of activities designed to bring the active traveler into intimate contact with the unique creatures and ecosystems of the Galapagos Islands while offering the comfort of luxury travel,” said company founder Todd Smith.
The Isabela Galapagos Cruise adventure begins with a walking tour of colonial Quito, Ecuador. On board the Isabela, passengers have knowledgeable naturalist guides available.
Each evening, guides offer a briefing on the next day’s activities including coastal walks along the Islands, observing native bird colonies, sea lions and marine iguanas.
Throughout the tour, there are also opportunities for spotting penguins, tortoises and even whales and dolphins.
Snorkeling is available at no additional charge. And for passengers who prefer to remain dry but also want an up close and personal glimpse at the marine life, they can explore an under water view from the glass-bottom boat.
This cruise departs from Quito with rates starting at $4,725 per person.
In addition to the city tour and on board excursions throughout the islands, the 11-day program includes three night’s accommodation in Quito, one week’s cruise accommodations, onboard meals and off-vessel activities plus round trip flights from mainland Ecuador to the Galapagos Islands.
AdventureSmith Explorations is an ecotourism company specializing in small ship cruises and adventure tours founded on the idea of utilizing travel to create connections with the world’s exotic natural environments and native cultures, says the company.
