The Galápagos Islands are a bucket list item for many travellers, and one of the most immersive, insightful, and environmentally forward ways to travel there is with HX Hurtigruten Expeditions. Michelle celebrated her retirement from teaching and travelled to the Galápagos Islands in the autumn of 2023 with a lifelong friend. This trip of a lifetime was a dream come true and her pictures and memories will have you dreaming of these enchanting islands. We will also hear from Bernardo Carrillo who will speak about the destination from the tour operator perspective, including what makes their style so suitable for the Galápagos, and how your creature comforts and thirst for knowledge can be met while on board. He has a wealth of personal experience with the Galápagos with valuable insights for any traveller planning a trip there.
