Snorkel in crystal-clear waters alongside sea lions, sea turtles, and marine iguanas, and observe the iconic wildlife that inspired the theory of evolution. This unique program takes you aboard the National Geographic Islander II, an intimate expedition ship designed for daily exploration across the Galápagos Islands.

Led by National Geographic Explorer and professor Dr. Alizé Carrère, you’ll experience the Galápagos both on land and beneath the waves. Each day brings new opportunities to engage with this extraordinary ecosystem—through guided hikes, snorkeling, and close-up wildlife encounters.

This once-in-a-lifetime journey offers more than just travel; it’s a deep dive into one of the world’s most biologically significant regions, designed to inspire curiosity, scientific thinking, and a lifelong connection to the natural world.
