What to do and see in Galapagos Islands, Galapagos Islands: The Best Self-Guided Tours & Rentals

February 22, 2022 Ying Subia

Abundant wildlife above and below the waves draws eco-tourists to Ecuador's Galapagos. Get up close on a stroll or in a Zodiac boat. Snorkel and dive with denizens of the deep, from sea lions to sea turtles at Santiago's Cousin's Rock. Hike by finches, flamingos and iguanas along the Darwin Trail. Admire Sierra Negra Volcano on Isabela. As visitor numbers are limited within the islands' National Park, book your boat tour through a tour operator. Visit January through April for the best snorkeling.

Our guide was determined to show us everything, and we did! Blue footed Boobies mating, sea horses, tons of white fin reef sharks, black fin reef sharks, turtles, colourful fish. At the beginning we went for a land mini tour on top of the tunnels so good shoes or beach shoes are a must. The boat ride there included a quick stop a rock with wildlife. Very small bag lunch is included so bring snacks and water just in case. Afterwards the guide downloaded incredible pictures he took and we could get a copy on our USB for free! What a souvenir!!!

Thank you Galapagos Living! Alexandra was so helpful in finding me ferry tickets for my chosen dates. The previous travel agency I visited could not get tickets for my dates AND were going to charge me additional fees! Galapagos Living saved my Isabella Island vacation!

Wilter and Vicente were wonderful. They pick us up at the airport in Baltra and made sure we were on time to take our bus, water taxi and boat that took us to Isla Isabela. They were on time and very attentive. We felt very comforting to be able to rely on someone that new all the steps to make it to your destination island. Because it could be very overwhelming. We will use them again on our future trip to Galapagos. We highly recommend them.

Because it is the only place where they can see giant turtles in the natural state, since to see other turtles it will be only in the breeding centers
