Our Commitment

At Metrojourneys, we are passionate about transforming the lives of our guests through memorable experiences in fantastic destinations. As we guide you through some of the most iconic locations on earth, we make the following commitments to every customer of ours:

Your Safety, Guaranteed.

Our first and foremost commitment is to provide you and your family with the highest safety standards throughout our tours. We have decades of experience curating supremely safe trips while offering the very best experience possible. As a result, you can trust Metrojourneys to keep you safe and sound from the beginning to the end of every single one of our tours.

The Pioneers in Galapagos Tours.

Metrojourneys’ affiliate (Metropolitan Touring) was founded in 1953 with the sole concept of establishing responsible, family-friendly, and modern tours throughout Ecuador’s (then) little-known country. By the late 1960s, we set our sights on crafting incredible tours through the Galapagos Islands, which had only recently been declared a National Park. Over the decades, we became the definitive Ecuadorian touring company for countless travel agencies worldwide and a golden standard for doing tours the right way within Ecuador.

Highest Quality. Lowest Impact.

Following your safety, our next concern is conserving the irreplaceable natural sanctuaries we explore throughout our tours. This is done through the latest advances in eco-friendly technology and practices that are integral to all our packages. This minimizes impact on the pristine environments we wish to share with the world.
