Galapagos Islands Guía de viaje

The Galapagos are an archipelago of volcanic islands 563 miles west of continental Ecuador known across the world for their weird and wonderful endemic species. The marine iguana and Galapagos giant tortoise often steal the spotlight, but the Magnificent frigatebird, Blue-footed booby, and Galapagos fur seal are equally fascinating. Besides animal-watching, which will take up a good portion of your time, snorkeling is also a popular activity and brings you much closer to the adorable seals and sea turtles. If a close encounter with a marine iguana is not your cup of tea, observe from afar on one of the many Galapagos cruises offering a more pampered Galapagos Island tour around the islands.
