Located 1000km west of Ecuador on the South American mainland, the Galapagos Islands are a group of volcanic islands. The wildlife here flourished and remained protected until the 1800s. Charles Darwin, known for his Theory of Evolution, visited the islands in 1835 and conducted studies that greatly influenced his work. Despite the increasing impact of human presence, the islands have managed to retain their natural beauty and are home to some of the friendliest wildlife you will ever encounter.
