Meeting of the ICONS - Machu Picchu & Galápagos!
Why are the Galápagos called the Enchanted Islands?

You´ve dreamed of it for (perhaps) a lifetime: a visit to the Galapagos Islands! The place that inspired Darwin´s Theory of Evolution, and one of the few habitats on earth where wildlife shows no fear of humans. 
Under water, on land and in the air, the Galápagos Islands are the most bio-diverse locations on earth, and present a simply staggering portrait of nature at its greatest.

Ask Christine Boecker about her recent Ecuador exploration, which included a Galá pagos cruise, an Amazon adventure and a cultural experience in the Andean Highlands.
Our first-hand experience makes all the difference when planning your journey of discovery!

Cave Paintings Discovered Near Machu Picchu
Cave Paintings
Two new cave paintings have been discovered near the Machu Picchu ruins in Peru. The paintings depict a man and a camel in black and are drawn on a rock located about 15 minutes walking distance from Machu Picchu.

According to the Cuzco Cultural Department , the drawings may have been made in pre-Inca times. The paintings are not recorded in explorer Hiram Bingham's original findings when he discovered the Lost City of the Incas in 1911.
In 2017 why not go somewhere that will thrill you. The dream awaits... capture it!

We've just added two i conic journeys to our repertoire:
Combine the Best of Ecuador, Galapagos & Amazon
with our Sacred Valley of the Incas for a total immersion.

Machu Picchu and the Galapagos really lived up to their iconic status on my Bucket List. These fascinating destinations more than satisfied my craving for wildlife, culture and history. And, although I'm very much an amateur Star Gazer, I was enthralled to see the Southern Cross and the Big Dipper at the same time, while relaxing on the top deck of my Galapagos catamaran!
