Experience
Come experience the Galápagos as only the locals can deliver them
It wasn’t so much that we got to experience the Galápagos as it was that there was a joy among the people and animals there to experience us! I actually began to feel sorry for the groups of tourists we’d glimpse being herded around on buses or boats, isolated from the experience we were having. Your Galápagos touched our hearts.”
Jenifer Briggs, Hollywood CA
My time in San Cristobal and in Casa Nuestra was, without doubt, the happiest of my life. The opportunity to spend time on the islands with the people who live there and have made the enchanted islands their home is incredibly powerful. It opens up the Galápagos to you in a way few tourists get to see. The Galápagos are truly magical and spending time on the islands is the only way to really experience that magic.”
Thea Johnson, New York NY
We were so happy to have done a land based Galápagos tour because we got a much better “feel” of the islands themselves and all of our hosts were so welcoming. I learned so much about the climate, and geology of the islands that I’m sure I wouldn’t have realized had we stayed on a boat. Plus, we had so much fun–snorkeling, watching birds and trekking around the highlands. It’s quite a place and I’m so happy I came to visit.”

Make a Contribution that Counts
Throughout the Galápagos, local communities are struggling to recover from economic hardship amidst recent travel and tourism restrictions. Our Galápagos Relief Fund provides much-needed food, clothing, shelter, and resources to the Galapagueños who need them most.
La Selva Lodge
Located within Ecuador’s Yasuní Biosphere Reserve and on the borders of the famous Yasuní National Park — one of the most biodiverse areas of the planet — La Selva Amazon Ecolodge and Spa was among the first Amazon rainforest lodges in Ecuador and today is still regarded as the premier eco lodge in the area.
