Welcome to a unique journey!

Dear Women of the Midwest,

​

Have you ever dreamt of a Galapagos Islands cruise, exploring some of the world’s most remote islands, where you get a chance to see some of the 9,000 fascinating species that inhabit this remarkable island oasis? Species such as the blue-footed booby, giant tortoises and Galapagos sea lions ...or breathing the cleanest Andean mountain air taking in the spectacular scenery and landscapes, staying overnight in unforgettable haciendas, and walking the cobblestone streets of Quito (the first city in the world to be declared a World Cultural Heritage Site by UNESCO)?

If you can answer yes to these questions, then this journey is for you! I am beyond excited to host a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Ecuador and Galapagos. Our 3-night cruise around the Galapagos Islands is a one-of-a-kind experience and limited to a maximum of 20-36 guests onboard, ensuring a closeup introduction and impression of everything you come to expect with a Women of the Midwest tour.

Has exploring the Amazon rainforest been on your bucket list? Jump on our extension into the endless heart of biodiversity, the Amazon Basin. Given the jungle’s remote and pristine nature, the very best way to explore it is by navigating down the Napo River on an exclusively-designed vessel set to explore the Amazon in style!

This journey is custom-tailored to Women of the Midwest by our local experts. We will enjoy the most experienced tour directors by our side and be introduced to and interact with the inhabitants of an in-so many-ways unique country, learning about the culture, cuisine, fauna, and flora.

I invite you to join me on a journey to the world’s foremost destinations to experience nature in all its glory displayed for you to behold! An experience like no other! Yours in travel and adventure,

Polly Welmaker, Ambassador Women of the Midwest
