 - Red Mangrove Lodge
Galapagos visitors now have a choice, our land-based program or our many Galapagos cruise options. 'Sea sensitive' travelers or those that prefer to spend more time on the islands will enjoy these land based programs 173 years ago, Charles Darwin had no choice but to tour the Galapagos by boat. Today you do! The Red Mangrove Galapagos Lodges is the only way to see multiple islands in the Galapagos without a cruise.
- Sacha Lodge
In addition to exploring the islands, you'll visit the Ecuadorian highlands of Otavalo and the depths of the pristine Amazonian rainforest in a excellent, comfortable jungle lodge. Sacha Lodge is built on a deep, cool freshwater lake surrounded by primary rainforest with trees hundreds of feet tall. A network of land and canoe trails, an observation tower and canopy walkway offer outstanding chances for birding and wildlife watching.
