Tour the Galapagos Islands
For such a small chain, the Galapagos Islands have an amazing amount of biodiversity—landscapes range from moon-like craters to lush valleys filled with ferns.

Days 1–2: Quito
flight time: 6 hours from JFK; 4 hours from MIA
A guided walking tour of Quito’s Colonial District is your introduction to the city. You’ll learn about Quito’s long history—from pre-Inca civilizations to the present—as you tour Independence Square and La Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús, a 17th-century Jesuit church with an interior almost entirely covered in golf leaf.
- Sightseeing highlight: 360-degree views of Quito from the top of Panecillo Hill, which is crowned with a giant aluminum statue of the Virgin Mary

Marvel at Santa Cruz Island as you drive across varied ecosystems ranging from arid deserts to rainforests. The island is home to a wealth of wildlife, including Galapagos finches and giant tortoises. See them up close during a visit to a tortoise breeding center.
- Sightseeing highlight: a visit to the Charles Darwin Research Centre, where you’ll learn about conservation efforts across the Galapagos Islands
- Nifty hotel amenity: The outdoor pool at Hotel Fiesta is landscaped with native plants.
- Meals: breakfast, lunch, and dinner
Days 4–5: Isabela Island
Your visit to Isabela Island kicks off with a tour of Flamingo Lagoon, the largest coastal lagoon in the chain and an important reproductive site for flamingos. Then you’ll travel by boat to Tintoreras Islet, where you can see sea lions, marine iguanas, and Galapagos penguins in their natural habitat. An easy hike to the top of the Sierra Negra Volcano the following day leads to the second largest crater in the world—it’s 6 miles in diameter and 300 feet deep.
- Sightseeing highlight: a snorkeling trip on Tintoreras Islet, where you may spot starfish, sea urchins, and a manta ray or two
- Nifty hotel amenity: La Casa de Marita lies right on a soft, sandy beach overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
