Our Expedition Specialists, Your Guides to Galápagos

At GB&Co., we believe your stay should be more than just a getaway; it should be a transformative journey that speaks to your soul. To make this vision a reality, we’ve teamed up with two passionate experts who not only understand the Galapagos but have also developed a heartfelt connection to these remarkable islands.

These explorers have dedicated themselves to the archipelago, driven by a love for its unspoiled beauty. Their strong connection to the land, wildlife, and local culture offers invaluable insights into the unique geological features, marine life, and indigenous species that define this extraordinary ecosystem.

Having an Impact

GB & Co. is deeply committed to environmental stewardship and takes great pride in its role as a driving force for transformative change

At GB&Co., we are firmly committed to environmental stewardship and take great pride in facilitating meaningful change. Guided by our dedication to responsible exploration, we are committed to supporting conservation and educational initiatives in the Galapagos while investing in the local community.

Conservation & Sciences

Our dedication to environmental stewardship and sustainable development not only defines who we are but also reflects our commitment to protecting the breathtaking beauty of our surroundings. We strive to inspire our clients to immerse themselves in the wonders of the natural and cultural worlds while being mindful of their environmental footprints. Additionally, we invite our guests to participate in community science initiatives, supporting crucial research on penguins and whales in the Galapagos Marine Reserve. Together, let’s create meaningful experiences that foster a deeper appreciation for nature and encourage collective efforts for conservation.

Community Education

At GB & Co., we believe that building meaningful relationships with the residents of our host communities is fundamental. One of the most impactful ways we do this is by supporting local education, which not only enriches the lives of children but also strengthens the community as a whole. Our initiative, launched in 2020, has a clear mission: to empower the young minds of the Galapagos.

By investing in training programs, providing essential equipment, and sharing valuable knowledge, we are teaching children about the natural beauty that surrounds them and the importance of preserving it. This isn’t just about education—it’s about fostering a deep connection between the next generation and their environment.

When you choose to partner with GB & Co., you’re not just getting accommodations; you’re participating in a meaningful effort to uplift communities and protect precious habitats. Join us in making a difference, one child at a time. Together, we can create a brighter future for both the people and the place we cherish.
