Galapagos Island Tour Highlights
A Galapagos Island tour is one of the most exciting travel destinations for nature lovers. Where else can you get up close to watch a sea lion nurse her pup and see huge marine iguanas marching across the beach next to tiny penguins?
The islands are home to a diverse wildlife population that is unique in the world. This volcanic island archipelago is the only place on earth to see many fascinating specie which have adapted to life on this remote outpost. The evolution of life here is so distinct and amazing that it prompted Darwin to develop his famous theory "On the Origin of Species". The giant land tortoises, finches and iguanas which vary from island to island remain largely the same as Darwin experienced them, since the islands have been wisely protected from development with only limited tourism allowed today.
