n.3 / Expedition experience BECOME AN EXPEDITION EXPERT Xavier Garcia, Expedition Leader, Silver Galápagos We know you are interested in learning everything you can about the Galápagos, before and during your cruise. Our guests have told us the ship is their preferred starting point for the experience and that preparation is key to enjoying the archipelago, as they are hungry for as much knowledge as possible before they go ashore. This is why we ensure all our guides are experts in their field and are certified by the National Park of the Galápagos. As a naturalist born on the archipelago, I am as keen as they are to show you all the wonders of our islands, so we are proud to launch a brand new type of space on Silver Origin: Basecamp. A welcoming and innovative “knowledge lounge”, it features all the wonder and history of the archipelago, with materials and tools that provide you with a wealth of inside knowledge. Our qualified experts — more per guest than any ship in the area — are also here for you at any time during your stay, to prepare you for your magical adventures on shore. Basecamp opens out directly onto our marina, providing easy, seamless access to our numerous Zodiacs®. In fact, with the most Zodiacs per guest in the entire region, Silver Origin provides the most personalized on- shore experience possible. ¡Bienvenidos! 10
