The Conscious Check-in Podcast
In collaboration with sustainability-focused travel platform Greenluxe, co-founder Stephanie Bonham-Carter joined Amy Wald, host of The Conscious Check-in podcast, to discuss conservation, hospitality, and the philosophy behind the Galapagos Safari Camp’s approach to appropriate luxury.
The conversation explores the origins of the Camp, from its beginnings on a remote cattle farm in the highlands of Santa Cruz to becoming one of the pioneers of land-based tourism in the Galapagos.
Stephanie reflects on the importance of designing hospitality experiences that work with nature rather than imposing upon it, particularly within one of the world’s most protected and regulated environments.
Throughout the episode, topics include rainwater collection, low-impact design, staying intentionally small, and redefining luxury through simplicity, connection, and immersion in the natural world. The discussion also touches on wellness, authenticity in travel, and the value of creating experiences rooted in place rather than trends.
The collaboration forms part of Greenluxe’s wider exploration of responsible hospitality and highlights Galapagos Safari Camp as an example of conservation-led travel shaped by long-term thinking, intentional design, and respect for the environment.
