Our Galapagos Travel Team consists of a Chief
Naturalist and five Naturalists. All will delight guests with diverse
natural history explanations, superb on-deck talks, and eye-catching
lectures regarding natural history issues. Their multimedia
presentations and recaps will complement the day's activities. Together
with the Captain, they will plan the day's program. They are masters of
Galapagos travel. Soon enough, our Naturalists will become the highlight
of your voyage on santa cruz galapagos. At night, when pitch-dark
starry skies are seen, stargazing is an amazing nocturnal activity. The
southern skies are beautifully arranged with exuberant constellations.
