Why Galapagos Islands Travel is Better with an IGTOA Member

The Galapagos Islands are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and have been called a ‘unique living museum and showcase of evolution.’ A priceless natural treasure, the Galapagos Islands are home to a staggering variety of animal and plant species, many of which are found nowhere else on Earth.

Today, the Galapagos Islands are under pressure from a host of threats including climate change, illegal fishing, invasive species, development, and even tourism itself.

The International Galapagos Tour Operators Association (IGTOA) and its members are working to actively preserve and protect the Galapagos Islands by promoting responsible, well-regulated tourism and by supporting critical conservation initiatives and scientific research there.

IGTOA’s member companies represent the highest standards of quality and professionalism in our industry. When you embark upon a Galapagos Islands tour with one of them, you can do your part to support the lasting preservation of this priceless world treasure.
