Galápagos Islands Cruise, Peru, and Machu Picchu

Where Ancient Empires Meet Living Evolution

​

From the mist-wreathed Andes to the otherworldly islands of the Pacific, this extraordinary journey traces two of South America’s greatest treasures — the lost citadel of Machu Picchu and the wild sanctuaries of the Galápagos.

 

In Peru, follow in the footsteps of the Incas through valleys, colorful markets, and mountaintop temples. Then in Ecuador, stand astride the equator before setting sail aboard the intimate Yacht Isabela II, where Darwin’s living laboratory unfolds before your eyes — giant tortoises lumbering through misty highlands, blue-footed boobies dancing on sunlit cliffs, and sea lions napping on black lava shores. This is a journey through myth, nature, and wonder, a blend of cultural discovery and natural spectacle, crafted for those who seek the extraordinary.​
