Galapagos Land Programs from Tropic Ecuador

Land-based Galapagos travel is here! There are myriad advantages to staying on the islands including, but certainly not limited to…

• For pax who tend toward seasickness or don’t want to spend a week on a boat, the land-based option is a godsend. There is still boat travel on Tropic’s land-based itineraries, but pax aren’t living on a boat for the bulk of their vacation.
• Land-based travel allows pax to get a real flavor of life on the islands. Tropic’s itineraries focus on traditional Galapagos activities, but mix in a great cast of characters that will make travelers’ journeys much more colorful and memorable.
• Land-based travel helps the local islands’ economies, fulfilling Tropic’s desire to ensure local cultures are supported through their tourism offerings. The impression of some Galapagos residents is that boat travelers come to the island, looks at the highlights, leave their trash and go. Land-based travelers are spending money in hotels and lodges and restaurants, making a sustainable existence for local residents.
