Pioneering Purposeful Adventures

since 1991

The Art of Transformative Travel

We Travel not just to see, but to feel, to evolve and to create a positive impact.

For over 30 years, we’ve pioneered adventure travel in Ecuador and the Galápagos Islands, curating immersive experiences that spark personal growth and positive impact.

At Neotropic Expeditions, we don’t just take you places. We guide you toward new perspectives, through nature, culture, and the extraordinary within you.

Travel is movement, connection and expansion.

Our Mission

To elevate life through intentional, sustainable travel.

We design immersive journeys that inspire transformation, foster well-being, and create shared value and benefits for travelers, local communities, and the natural world. Every itinerary directly supports small-scale entrepreneurs, conservation efforts, and ecosystem restoration; ensuring each journey gives back more than it takes.

Our Vision

To redefine tourism as a path to evolution and purpose.

We see travel as a transformative force, one that uplifts individuals, restores ecosystems, and nurtures a more conscious, connected world. Our vision is for every journey to unlock new ways of thinking, feeling, and being; bridging cultures, supporting communities, and elevating the human experience to its fullest expression, inside and out.

We believe in the power of presence.

Our Manifesto

Tailored Adventure

Every traveler is unique. Every journey is crafted as a path of self-discovery; aligned with your pace, passions, curiosity, and personal evolution.

Emotion Centered Approach

We don’t just make trips; we create emotions. Every experience is designed to spark joy, insight, and a lasting impact on your heart and mind.

Green at Heart and Soul

Sustainability is at our core. It shapes how we see and move through the world. We travel to protect, honor, and inspire positive change in the places we explore.

Purposeful Luxury

Luxury isn’t defined by extravagance; it’s authenticity. We offer exclusive access to meaningful experiences and genuine local connections, all designed to foster a true sense of belonging.

Honest Local Connections

We build bridges through travel, fostering understanding, cultural exchange, and deep respect for human diversity.

Celebrating Roots and Heritage


We don’t just travel, we dive into the essence. Every step is a story. We embrace ancestral traditions and savor each landscape like a rare vintage: where every bite is a connection to the land, and every moment, a celebration of its richness.

Craft your Life as your Biggest Adventure

Our Values

These are the principles that guide every decision, every relationship, and every journey we create.

Adventure

 We embrace curiosity, courage, and the unknown, stepping beyond comfort zones to experience life with confidence, joy, and a growth mindset.

We believe that meaningful travel sparks personal insight, deep connections, and new perspectives; transforming individuals, uplifting communities, and inspiring care for the environment.

We go beyond, embracing regenerative tourism by actively contributing to biodiversity protection and enhancing the well-being of local communities through responsible travel.

We foster relationships rooted in respect, reciprocity, and shared growth, between our travelers, cultures, nature, partners, and team.
