Refresh 2025: Quito & Northern Galapagos

Jun 14, 2025 to Jun 21, 2025
 
Get ready for the trip of a lifetime in Quito and the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador.
 
We'll explore the capital of Ecuador, Unesco World Heritage Site, Quito. This charming city offers a unique mixture of Aztec and Spanish Colonial culture, architectural marvels, eclectic museums, and flavorful cuisine. 
 
Next, we'll fly to the stunning archipelago of the Galapagos Islands! This pristine paradise, made famous by Charles Darwin, is teeming with wildlife - much of which is only found in the Galapagos Islands. This special place is best explored aboard an expedition vessel, and Yacht La Pinta will allow us to revel in bucket-list destinations while we enjoy snorkeling, swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding, hiking, and riding in pangas and glass-bottom boats!
 
This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we can't wait to share with you!
