About the Trip
Undiscovered by Europeans until the 16th century, the Galápagos Islands holds a central position in modern history as the birthplace of the theory of evolution. Join fellow alumni on the deluxe La Pinta for a wondrous journey to one of the most biologically unique places on earth. Each island in this volcanic archipelago has species that are exquisitely adapted to the available food sources and surrounding environments, as well as to each other. Because the human presence is still relatively minimal, much of the wildlife is remarkably unafraid of visitors. This will allow you to observe and photograph them at very close range, either sitting quietly in the midst of a colony of tropical penguins or snorkeling with inquisitive and playful sea lions.
