More Coming Soon !

Granted, the Galapagos Islands and Ecuador are some of the most heavily traveled destinations in the world… but, I’m determined to get there and experience this magical place myself.


Most of Galapagos National Park is protected, with humans being able to reside on only five of the islands: San Cristobal, Santa Cruz, Baltra, Floreana and Isabela. The other islands are deserted, with stringently regulated visits coordinated by the national park. You will rarely see another tour group at a site. You’ll also notice there are no docks on the isolated islands – landings are made in a panga (zodiac raft) or by wading to shore (what is called a “wet landing”).

These restrictions help to preserve not only the Galapagos Islands’ near-pristine environment, but also to guarantee you the experience humans have had since the first recorded visit in 1535: the fearlessness the birds, tortoises, sea lions and other native inhabitants exhibit.
