Columbus Travel Group Information

Columbus Travel Group has been in the industry for 17 years, offering a full range of travel experiences in the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador and Peru. Columbus Travel Group bought La Selva Jungle Lodge in November 2011 and recently converted the lodge into a premium ecolodge and spa in the heart of the Ecuadorian Amazon, offering an authentic jungle experience in comfort. Located on the pristine beach of San Clemente on the Pacific Coast of Ecuador, we own Palmazul Artisan Designed Hotel & Spa, a beachfront hotel, with a stunning view of the sea, featuring Cocomar Restaurant and Arena Spa. Haugan Cruises has redefined the whole concept of cruising in the Galapagos Islands, Luxury Catamarans. Haugan Cruises’ Prestige Collection features: Cormorant and Ocean Spray - two brand new luxury Catamarans, with a capacity for 16-passengers, boasting private balconies, suites, interconnected cabins and a Quality Control Manager. Both yachts are designed and built to cruise in the Galapagos. Columbus Travel operates one-of-a-kind-expeditions throughout Ecuador, and has just opened an office in Cusco, Peru, assuring we’ll be with our travelers every step of the journey from Ecuador to Peru. Simon Bolivar Spanish School and Fundacion Bolivar Education are also part of Columbus Travel Group, offering Spanish lessons and volunteer projects in Ecuador´s four regions, including the Galapagos Islands.
