The Galapagos Islands are quite simply like nowhere else on earth. As Charles Darwin remarked “The Natural History of this archipelago is very remarkable: it seems to be a little world within itself.”
Steppes Discovery has been specialising in designing Galapagos cruises and Galapagos wildlife holidays for around 15 years, working closely with the Galapagos Conservation Trust we are one of the most experiences operators in the region. All of our boats are Smart Voyager certified ensuring that we leave little behind bar our footprints. Emma Byrne has travelled extensively, by boat, in this incredible archipelago and is still enchanted by her experience. Snorkelling with Galapagos Penguins, swimming alongside turtles and stepping over sea lions and Marine Iguanas who bask on the islands trails are just some of the delights you can experience visiting this magical destination. Following in the footsteps of Darwin and witnessing Evolution first hand is an incredibly unique experience.
The Galapagos Islands are the world’s most extraordinary destinations to see wildlife, where animals have no fear of humans. As the Galapagos Islands are a year round wildlife destination, there is always something to see.
The 19 islands are home to a rich diversity of unique species and a living laboratory where you can experience evolution and active volcanoes. From the prehistoric iguanas lazing in the sun, giant tortoises dotting the landscape, the ubiquitous sally light-foot crab to the blue-footed boobies, this is a very special wildlife experience. Galapagos hawks, mocking birds and finches fill the air, whilst frigate birds, waved albatross and penguins fish in the sea rich with sea lions, sharks and manta rays.
In addition to the Islands' most famous sights, our Galapagos Island holidays and tours are designed to take you behind the scenes of the conservation work taking place here through our long standing relationship with the Charles Darwin Research Centre. These relationships in the Galapagos allow our clients access to an unparalleled network of local contacts who not only ensure you get the most from your tours, but more importantly can unlock the secrets of this wonderful paradise.
We offer specially charted boats with expert guides and tailor made small group holidays to The Galapagos. All the boats we offer in the Galapagos are handpicked for their commitment to sustainable tourism and high standards of customer service. We can help you choose a vessel and itinerary that meets your needs, safe in the knowledge you will be travelling responsibly.
