Why Choose Enchanted Adventures
Thoughtfully designed and thoroughly engaging experiences for the modern adventure traveller
Enchanted Adventures was founded by the mother-daughter adventure travel duo of Judy and Tatjana Angermeyer who have travelled the world immersing themselves in the destinations they now offer. The name Enchanted Adventures was inspired by the Galapagos Islands, a destination that Judy first fell in love with more than three decades ago and that continues to have a profound influence on every Enchanted Adventures trip.
You see, before they were known as the Galapagos Islands, intrepid sailors and explorers knew the desolate and mysterious islands as Las Encantadas – “The Enchanted Ones.” Cut off from the mainland by nearly 1,000 kilometres of unforgiving ocean, Las Encantadas was a place where the natural world ran wild.
In the unrelenting conditions, the wildlife that somehow made its way from the mainland had to undergo fascinating evolutions to adapt to the uncommon conditions of each island. Each species was shaped by their unique experiences, and then transformed into something new and highly-specialized to thrive in their environment.
And that’s precisely the kind of thinking Enchanted Adventures puts into each itinerary they create for their guests. Each is adapted and shaped by the destinations they offer around the world and are highly-specialized to get the most out the unique locale, transformative in their experiences, and filled with unexpected and fascinating idiosyncrasies you won’t find anywhere else.
