Wild Explorers

Visiting an organic coffee farm in the Galápagos, where we learned the entire process—from the coffee plants to crafting our own beans. An experience that awakened every one of our senses

Wild Explorers gave us a wonderful adventure in the Galapagos! Our trip was a perfect blend of active exploration, wildlife encounters, great food, and Ecuadorian culture. Cari and Jota were wonderful guides and took great care of us, going above and beyond with special experiences and tailoring the trip to our needs. I went into the trip not knowing what to expect and left with amazing memories. The Galapagos are incredibly special and I can’t recommend visiting enough. Thank you, Wild Explorers, for such an incredible trip! Emily McNamara

Day 5 .Today was all about the ocean and the beach. A day of deep connection with the marine world.

Galápagos is one world above the water, and a completely different one below. It reminds you how essential it is to love, respect, and protect marine life.

Day 4. We took an inter-island flight to San Cristóbal Island. There, we experienced our most challenging—but absolutely spectacular—run, descending from the highest point of the island all the way down to the sea. Later, we visited a local coffee farm, where we learned about the process and enjoyed tasting a refreshing cold brew—a perfect way to unwind after an epic day.

Day 3. We ran along a lush, green trail leading us all the way to the beach, surrounded by vibrant vegetation at every step. Once there, we dove into the ocean and shared the water with incredible wildlife—sea turtles, marine iguanas, playful sea lions, and even sharks.

Back at the hotel, we enjoyed a refreshing dip in the pool before heading into a fun and interactive cooking class, where we learned to prepare traditional dishes using plantains.

To end the day, we were treated to a surprise dinner in a magical setting by the ocean—an unforgettable experience under the stars. 🌊✨
