Island Hopping in the Galápagos

January 18, 2020 | 8:00 AM - January 29, 2020 | 5:00 PM

Join the JCRA as we explore exotic Ecuador from the capital city Quito to the tropical rainforest and out to the Galápagos Islands January 18–29, 2020. We ‘ll start our trip in the world cultural heritage city Quito, known as the city of eternal spring, before heading down to the tropics. A canoe will be waiting to transport us up the river to our amazing tropical lodge where we will enjoy the plants and wildlife with a master naturalist as well as getting a chance to see how the locals live.

After a couple of days in the tropics, we head back to Quito with a stop in the cloud forest of the Andes. Then it is off to the Galápagos Islands where we will have five days to explore a variety of islands, snorkel with sea lions, and watch the blue-footed boobies and Darwin ‘s famed finches from the comfort of a luxury resort which serves as our home base.

Whether you are an avid plant lover, dedicated birder, or just someone who wants to travel with a fun group of new friends, this is the trip of a lifetime.
