  • Explore the Most Interesting Islands on Earth
    GALÁPAGOS EXPLORE THE MOST INTERESTING ISLANDS ON EARTH FREE AIR ON SELECT DATES ABOARD NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC ISLANDER AND NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC ENDEAVOUR II | 2018-2020 TM DEAR TRAVELER, Galápagos straddles the equator, is mercifully absent of hurricanes and cyclones, and fluctuates little weather-wise throughout the year. The animals are always there for us to observe up-close and personally. It is a geography that’s infinitely compelling, something you already know from countless magazine articles, nature programs, documentaries and more. But what you might not know is that it is the preeminent, guaranteed, slam-dunk vacation option for families. It offers something for everyone. And even better, it offers so much for families to share—it’s where meaningful memories get made together. Galápagos attracts, at least with us, a very diverse audience, driven largely by times when families travel and don’t. (See the chart at bottom right.) So, while Galápagos is always in season as far as wildlife and wonder are concerned, there are very distinct times to be there based on your preference in travel companions. If you don’t like the pitter patter of children’s feet, you can plan to visit when they’re absent. And if you are planning to explore as a family, and want other kids around, you can rely on the fact that we understand how to meet needs and create opportunities for kids of all ages. We’ve been at this for a very long time, ever since my father pioneered travel here in 1966. Galápagos is a very special place, and we are totally committed to ensuring that our guests get the most out of their time here.

One of our goals is to help individuals understand what to look for as a baby grows and develops. Another goal is to aid in understanding that infants’ and toddlers’ natural learning patterns and abilities can be nurtured in everyday activities occurring in a home or childcare setting. Young children’s learning comes from discoveries they make on their own under the guidance of caring adults rather than from structured lessons. Suggestions are provided for caregivers, which includes parents and early childhood professionals, for interacting with infants and toddlers, organizing the environment so it supports their learning, and responding to their individual differences.
