We are a small and highly experienced tour operator, led by Canadian Heather Blenkiron. Heather gained an intimate knowledge of the islands while working for the Galapagos National Park Service and the Charles Darwin Research Station, from 1998 to 2002. Heather also served as the Canadian consul for Galapagos during her stay.  She maintains close contacts with key people there. 

 

Galapagos is our specialty - it's our only destination. We make the BEST use of our personal knowledge, our professional experience and our Galapagos partners in putting together a small number of unique, personalized tours in Galapagos every year, and in working closely with independent travellers to help them find a cruise best suited to their needs.

We eschew intermediaries. Over the years living in Galapagos and running CNH Tours, we have developed a rich network of dedicated and professional island based ship owners and operators. This allows us to focus our work in such a way as to support local livelihoods, while providing participants with a more authentic and less intrusive experience of the islands. Our approach ensures that you get the absolute best out of your time in Galapagos and Ecuador - all of this at a very competitive price.

Personalized service is our strength. We like to maintain direct, personal communications with both our service providers and, most importantly, with our prospective and confirmed participants. Why not get in touch with us right now by email? You may also want to consider asking us to schedule a phone call to help you start exploring cruise options. We cannot under-emphasize our focus on personalized service.

CNH Tours regularly gives back to the community. Since 2000, CNH Tours has been organizing regular non-profit fund-raising cruises in support of worthy educational initiatives. Past cruises have raised funds for United World Colleges (3 cruises), Dustin's Greenhouse for underprivileged urban youth (2 cruises), and this year, with the Canadian Library Association, we raised funds for the Galapagos Public Library.
