Private cruise the Enchanted Islands
Having
developed this tour for our Alumni travellers, we are delighted
to offer another of our Galapagos tours, which includes eight
days on board a first-class yacht. We have chartered CORAL
II , a German built cruiser expressly refurbished for
the Galapagos. She has 11 spacious air conditioned outside
cabins – 5 Junior Suites & 6 Moon and Cabins - all
with double or twin beds and private toilet/shower.
Avenue
of the Volcanoes
The tour begins in Quito, high in the Andes, and the northern
extent of the Inca Empire. We visit Colonial Quito, with its
many churches and protected buildings, plus a tour of the
Avenue of the Volcanoes, among stunning scenery.
Frigates & Boobies
The Galapagos Islands are home to an amazing variety of wildlife
and birds – red and blue footed boobies, frigate
birds, giant tortoises, marine iguanas, sea lions and many
more.
