About Judy Carvalhal - Galapagos & Ecuador Travel Expert - Owner of Enchanted Expeditions in Quito

https://www.enchantedexpeditions.com/ Judy Carvalhal is the Founder and CEO of Enchanted Expeditions, a company that helped to pioneer the modern tourist industry in the Galapagos Islands and Ecuador. With deeply set international roots, Judy brings a unique global perspective to the travel business. She grew up in Guyana and French Guiana, and was educated at Canada’s prestigious Queen’s University before travelling to South America to become one of the first female parks naturalists in Galapagos. Judy’s love for travel and nature is driven by her curiosity about the culture, eco-system and wildlife of the places she visits. This passion fuels her as an entrepreneur, conservationist and an expert in her field. She inspires her guests to explore the world, create amazing travel experiences, have fun and be adventurous. She also ensures that part of their experience includes learning about the importance of conservation. She believes that without tourism, there is no conservation.

One of Judy’s favorite places to explore is Ecuador and Galapagos and she uses her knowledge to curate one of a kind itineraries that take her guests “off the beaten track” and offers them authentic travel experiences. Judy is committed to ensuring that Enchanted Expedition’s guests learn about the history, culture and eco-systems that make this part of South America such an incredible place to visit. Judy knows that when people explore and learn about the exotic and beautiful places of Ecuador and Galapagos, they will appreciate its splendor and understand how vital it is to save and preserve these precious eco-systems that are under such duress.

Judy’s education in ecology and evolutionary biology combined with her experience working as a naturalist guide in the Galapagos Islands, inspired her to champion sustainable tourism before it was recognized by the media and tourism industry. She and her partners, were trailblazers -- conducting research and creating dialogue and policies to ensure that their company championed “responsible tourism” and “environmentally friendly” practices.

After raising four children in Galapagos and Ecuador, Judy is more passionate than ever to ensure that this precious part of the world is protected. Judy’s deep and heartfelt commitment to protect and preserve both the wildlife and culture of Ecuador has built a loyal team that shares these values.

The Enchanted global family of travel brands offer 40 years of experience operating tours to the Galapagos Islands, Mainland Ecuador and beyond and includes:
· Enchanted Expeditions, a destination management company, based in Quito, Ecuador
· Enchanted Adventures based in Victoria, BC (Canadian division),
· Two Yachts in the Galapagos Islands; the Beluga Motor Yacht and the Cachalote Explorer,
· Enchanted Galapagos Lodge on Santa Cruz Island.

Two of Judy’s four children are now part of the Enchanted family business, and they share her passion for travel, nature, adventure, and her belief in conservation and sustainable practices. When Judy isn’t travelling the world to lead tours, and scout out new destinations, she spends her time between her homes and family in Ecuador and Canada. Judy is often asked how she stays grounded while traveling the world for business and pleasure and her answer is always the same, “Home is wherever I am, and where ever my family is.”
