Step into the “little world within itself” that so inspired Charles Darwin. On this unforgettable journey through the Galápagos Islands, encounter extraordinary wildlife up close—from marine iguanas basking on volcanic rocks to sea lions lounging on white sand beaches, blue-footed boobies dancing along trails, and penguins gliding through crystal waters.

Sail aboard the National Geographic Endeavour II, a 52-cabin expedition ship purpose-built for exploration. With access to kayaks, paddleboards, Zodiacs, and a glass-bottom boat, you’ll snorkel with sea turtles, paddle past mangroves, and watch dolphins leap alongside the ship.

Led by expert naturalists from National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions—many of whom are native Galapagueños—you’ll gain deep insight into the islands’ ecosystems and culture. Their decades of experience ensure every day is filled with adventure, discovery, and awe-inspiring wildlife sightings.

Join us for the trip of a lifetime in one of the world’s most iconic and biodiverse destinations.
