Our Vision
FIRST, OUR ASSUMPTIONS…
CNH Tours assumes that you are drawn to
Galapagos by its fabled reputation as a place "beyond time", where
landscapes, and their inhabitants hark from a world and an era with
few or no reference points common to our daily experiences.
In this regard, we are assuming that you want
to be put into close contact, as much as possible, with the wild
landscapes and seascapes of the islands, and to have the chance to
observe their inhabitants close up, as they go about their usual
life cycles. We also assume that you're expecting to
have the services of an exceptional naturalist guide, who is at
once knowledgeable, engaged, passionate and has both a good sense
of humour and the sensitivity to know when it's time to stand back
and let you get on with the revival of your sense of wonder....
NOW, OUR VISION FOR A ONCE IN A LIFETIME TRIP
Galapagos should be a "mind
trip" nurtured by all of your senses. We feel
that the best way to attain this experience is by reducing
the distractions of day-to-day life and giving all of your
senses the chance to tune into both the subtle and the
not-so-subtle stimuli of the islands. For this
reason, we focus on the cruise-ship experience. On a
cruise-ship, you're not delivered back to the noise and lights of
town every night, nor do you spend half the day cruising to and
from your destination. You spend more time being among the
islands, on and in the sea. You have more opportunities
to develop a sense of place, and to engage with
the island's natural inhabitants. You can tune into the
spirit of Galapagos.
