Galapagos Islands
Aboard the Polaris
Lindblad Expeditions
October 28-November 6, 2005

Anyone interested in the natural world dreams of a visit to the Galapagos Islands, located about 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador. Here, some of the world’s most unusual wildlife is so abundant and approachable that you may have to watch your step to avoid disturbing a resting sea lion or the courtship display of a blue-footed booby. During a visit to the Galapagos in 1835, Charles Darwin gathered the material that led him to propose his theory of evolution. Now, travel aboard the 80-guest Polaris, equipped for expedition travel with Zodiac landing craft and a glass-bottom boat, and see for yourself how different species have adapted over time to varied habitats. Expert naturalists will accompany you, and ample time is allowed for walking, swimming, snorkeling, photography, and observing wildlife.
