Walk in the footsteps of Charles Darwin where his Theory of Evolution began
Steppes Travel has been selling holidays to the Galapagos Islands since the year 2000, between the team we have visited this fascinating and varied country over 20 times. Each visit is as special as the previous, it is a place that never fails to inspire and enchant, it is a magical place. The wildlife is of course incredible, it is so tame you are literally stepping over it on the paths, but the islands themselves are beautiful and so varied.
Charles Darwin first brought these extraordinary islands to the world's attention in 1835 and the experiences he enjoyed whilst exploring the islands can be shared today by the fortunate visitor on their holiday to the Galapagos.
The Islands are a living laboratory of evolution where birds and animals have no fear of man. Blue-Footed Boobies, Flightless Cormorants, Land and Marine Iguanas and Giant Tortoises roam freely as they did thousands of years ago. Anyone interested in natural history, wildlife and ecology will find a Galapagos Islands tour a truly memorable experience.
A Galapagos holiday and cruise offers one of the most unique, magical and unforgettable holiday experiences in South America. On your Galapagos cruise you can swim, snorkel or dive with seals, Whale Sharks and penguins, wander with tortoises and enjoy the animated mating rituals of the Blue-Footed Booby and many other Galapagos animals. The fact that the islands have never been connected with the mainland means that they are home to innumerable endemic species of wildlife and plants, many of which are even unique to just one island due to the differences in landscape and climate within the archipelago.
You can base yourself on one of the four inhabited islands, combine a number of islands by doing an island hopping trip or the best way to see the largest area would be to do a full Galapagos cruise. You can join a group of like-minded travellers or charter a boat for a whole party of family or friends for a unique Galapagos holiday.
