The luxury travel experts at Pacific Delight Tours are proceeding in building a strong South America portfolio with new five-, eight- and 11-night itineraries in Ecuador, with each program bringing travelers to the Galapagos Islands. Itineraries to Ecuador will start at $2,699 per person, based on double occupancy.

All of Pacific Delight’s Ecuador programs will bring travelers to the Galapagos Islands where they will have the opportunity to visit the Charles Darwin Research Center to learn about conservation. Guests will experience indigenous wildlife first-hand, with an insightful glimpse at the land birds, giant tortoises, iguanas, seabirds, tropicbirds, gulls, pelicans and sea lions which have evolved in unique ways in this isolated paradise.

Travelers embarking on the extended eight- or 11-day itineraries will visit the city of Quito where they will immerse themselves in the city’s fascinating Colonial section.

Those participating in the 11-day itinerary will also have the chance to explore the city of Cuenca, founded in 1557 on an Inca settlement where one can still breathe the colonial air of Ecuadorian history, and Guayaquil, Ecuador’s largest city which is also the country’s commercial center where visitors will gain an appreciation of the tropical metropolis.
