There's nothing quite like an adventure in Ecuador's Galápagos Islands. Blue-footed boobies, marine iguanas, friendly sea lions, giant tortoises, Darwin’s finches, penguins, expansive beaches, lingering sunsets, gourmet cuisine and outstanding adventure— all await you on our private first-class catamaran sailing and multisport vacation in the Galápagos Islands.

Enjoy exotic and abundant wildlife and unique, scenic locations—without the crowds as we island hop through the volcanic Galápagos Islands Archipelago on an 80-ft, 12-passenger, wide and stable catamaran. Days are spent swimming nose-to-nose with friendly and playful sea lions, snorkeling and kayaking with sea turtles and observing breath-taking marine, bird and wildlife. Additional Galápagos vacation activities may include horseback riding, hiking or surfing. Evenings feature plenty of time to lounge aboard our private yacht while savoring delightful regional cuisine prepared fresh daily by a talented chef.

    I enjoyed seeing the many varieties of fish, birds, reptiles, animals, having a variety of options of things to do, learning the history of the region, learning about life in the region now as they grow, their ongoing concerns with ecological issues, the very helpful and knowledgeable guides (and funny too).

    We loved our trip with Oars to Peru and now we only want to do more active vacations. We did like our comfy hotels at the end of the day and the great food but really enjoyed the outdoor aspects. Great Job!
