Your cruise to the Galápagos Islands starts in Quito, Ecuador. From there you’ll fly to Baltra Island, then board your luxury yacht, the Treasure of Galapagos. Cruise between the spectacular sanctuary islands of San Cristobal, Santa Cruz, and Santiago – to name a few, discovering the wildlife that inspired Charles Darwin.
