The food on the trip was excellent. I don’t think I had a bad meal at any point during the whole trip. I really enjoyed the itinerary. I liked the combination of the land and the water Galapagos experience.

Touring Galapagos has a strong ethos as a company, with a commitment to sustainable tourism. This is one of the reasons we loved them. We love this destination for families, A lot of activities.
