Galapagos

Career break in the Galapagos Islands

Galapagos career break brochure
A career break in the Galapagos Islands is a hugely exciting career break options if you are passionate about nature and wildlife. By taking a career break in the Galapagos Islands you’ll be visiting one of the most remote and unique places on earth to view wildlife. This is because the Galapagos Islands have never been connected to the South America mainland and the animals and plants have evolved differently – many of the animals you encounter on a career break in the Galapagos Islands can’t be found anywhere else on the planet.

Galapagos Islands career break

If you want to get even closer to the wildlife on a Galapagos Islands career break a great way to do so is by volunteering for a wildlife conservation project – such as our Giant Tortoise programme. It’s also possible to get involved with the local community on a Galapagos Island career break by teaching English in local schools. Galapagos voluntary work includes Spanish tuition – a skill which helps you get so much more out of your career break in the Galapagos Islands.
