Darwin’s Galapagos

with Jo Ruxton

Explore the Galapagos Islands from the comfort of a luxury

small-berth yacht accompanied by marine conservationist and

documentary producer Jo Ruxton

A paradise for natural history, animal and geology lovers, we have curated a distinctive trip

which includes the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site of Quito followed by 8 days

exploring at sea and exclusive behind the scenes access at the Galapagos Science Centre.

The spacious and stylish yacht Natural Paradise is small enough to get into bays that larger

expedition ships cannot go near, so you get to experience Galapagos as Darwin did.

The Natural Paradise yacht only accommodates 15 people,

so enquire early to avoid missing out.

ECUADOR

islands by panga boat and snorkel in these

amazing waters

k Observe a wide variety of wildlife including

reef sharks, nazca, blue-footed boobies, sea

lions, Galapagos penguins, seahorses, sea

turtles, and the strange yet fascinating mola.

k Explore Latin America’s largest and best-

preserved historic centre and colonial quarters

in Ecuador’s capital, Quito
