You spend two nights in Quito exploring the new and old section of this colonial city. Heading north we've recommended two beautiful haciendas from which to discover this picturesque Andean region. You have plenty of time to explore and enjoy the mountain air and views, and we will take you on a tour of the Andean town of Otavalo famous for its handicrafts and excellent market.

Your journey now takes you to the famous Galapagos Islands. Board your luxury yacht for a week's cruise that will take you to many different islands all with unique wildlife with no fear of man!

Your expert naturalist guide will ensure you make the most of your time here. Land tours are combined with time for swimming and relaxing on board. You could chill a little with the sea-lions, chat a bit with a blue-footed boobie, admire the aptly-named magnificent frigate bird, and perhaps even p-p-p-pick up a penguin!
