ONE SPOT LEFT on Eco Trip to the Galapagos Islands

Inspired by our recent Brazilian and Peruvian Amazon adventures, Dodge and Preferred Adventures Ltd. is excited to invite you to join naturalist Don Oberdorfer and nature explorer/photographer Bernie Friel for an experience in the Galapagos Islands! This ten day expedition begins on July 18, 2008 in the capital city of Quito, Ecuador. A day tour to the famed Indian markets in Octavalo is included with lunch at Hacienda Cusin. The group will then fly to the island of San Cristoba in the Galapagos and board a yacht for the journey of a lifetime, ending back in Quito on July 27. You can return home on the 28th or extend the trip with excursions into the Amazon basin rainforest or Machu Picchu.

A small portion of the fee for the trip goes to Dodge to support our ongoing programs. For more information, click here, or contact Preferred Adventures at 651.222.8131 or 1-800-840-8687.
