Galapagos multi-sport


The Galapagos Islands, with their intriguing natural history, rich marine and bird-life and incredible geology, are simply unique.

This land-based activity holiday trips along at a slightly more leisurely pace than our action-packed Multi-Activity trip, allowing you to experience the tranquillity and beauty of the natural wonders of the Galapagos at a more serene pace.

We visit five islands and leave the crowds of visitors and well-worn paths behind to walk and paddle our way through the paradise that is Galapagos as well as camp on the Enchanted Islands.


Environnmentally friendly


Our unique journey seeks to mitigate environmental impact by allowing small groups to visit sites that are not part of the main tourist routes in the most environmentally-friendly manner imaginable.

This trip is perfect for people who want to get out and explore the Galapagos in a new, versatile and exciting way, with plenty of time to relax at the end of a day’s adventure at top hotels.

All our kayaking sessions during the trip are supported by a panga, or small launch, to ensure your comfort and safety. We adhere to Leave No Trace ethics on all of our excursions.

We'll encounter a wealth of wildlife and different ecosystems. We walk and sea-kayak where other, more intrusive modes of transport would not take us, and we are rewarded by not only what we see but by the thrill and satisfaction of getting there.




Once you leave the magical Galapagos islands, why not explore the mainland a little further on our Ecuador Active trip or by embarking on a trip to Ecuador’s wildlife rich cloud forest or Amazon jungle.

In the Andes snow-capped peaks await those with a sense of adventure, check out our climbing expeditions.
