The Best of Ecuador & Galapagos 12 Days / 11 Nights

Just book it

My friend and I did a customized private tour across Quito, the Amazon, Banos, and two islands in the Galapagos. Rodney was our tour guide on the mainland and he was by far the best. I cannot recommend him enough. Everyday we knew exactly what we were doing and what we needed to prepare for regarding weather, terrain, and difficulty. Once we left the mainland for the islands, it wasn't as smooth. There were a lot more people involved and less communication, but I think that may just be how it works in the islands. So worth it regardless. I highly recommend!

5 Days Tour to Explore Santa Cruz ,Isabela and Santa Fe Galapagos

Real Dreams

This was a great experience in The Galapagos. All details were handled by Real Dreams tour company. Starting at the airport in Baltra, our guide Enrique met us inside the airport, led us to the line for the bus. He told us where to put our luggage and where to wait. The bus took us to a ferry. At the end of the ferry ride a driver was waiting to take us to the Tortoise Ranch. There we had lunch and Enrique gaves a tour of the grounds. Afterwards, our driver took us to our hotel in Santa Cruz. Enrique made sure we were checked in before leaving.... That is all the details for just one day. Each day involved more details. Everyday someone met us at our hotel to take us on an adventure. When we travelled to Isabella Island, our guide, Glenda, was waving at us from the docks. My grandson asked if I knew everyone in the Galapagos! All of our guides were local residents who shared their knowledge and insights. The only additional costs for us were the dollar per person water taxi rides and tips. We did some shopping, stopped for ice cream and had about 4 additional meals. No matter what, you will see the animals and experience the richness The Galapagos Islands have to offer. It's best with friends who take care of the details!
