This was a great tour. We liked the tours and hotels that the company booked, and Jeferson from the company did a fantastic job coordinating everything and answering questions very quickly. Highly recommend this company. The Galápagos Islands are awesome. We got lucky and saw several large groups of penguins on Isabella Island, which was the highlight for us.

Farnaz • traveled in May, 2026
The tour was overall a good experience to see a lot of Galapagos in a short amount of time. The hotel was at a good location and clean but the amount of food they served you was very little and limited options. Some disorganization with some of the day activities. Overall a good way to enjoy Galapagos in a short time.

Best time to visit Ecuador
- Summer 2026
Summer tours blend physical challenges with local culture across Ecuador's regions. You start in the Andes at South America's biggest indigenous market in Otavalo before heading to the deep blue Quilotoa crater lake. The path winds through Ba�os where you'll cycle past waterfalls, try the "End of the World" swing and soak in hot springs. In the Amazon, you'll tackle white-water rapids on the Jatunyacu River, look for night creatures on jungle walks and learn traditional plant medicine from indigenous guides. Our travelers tell us they love how these routes mix hiking, cycling and also cultural experiences all in one trip.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Autumn works well for exploring high mountains and coastal areas both. Active tours combine horse rides near snowy volcanoes, downhill biking on jungle paths and kayaking in wildlife spots. You'll visit artists' workshops in the Andes, learn chocolate making from local experts and spot countless birds in misty forests. Our guests often mention how they love the variety - hiking volcanic trails one day, swimming with sea turtles the next and also learning at wildlife breeding centers.

- Winter 2026 / 2027
Winter brings out the best of the Galapagos from December through May with warmer seas and great visibility. Our multi-island tours let you snorkel at Kicker Rock where hammerhead sharks glide by in the clear waters. You'll spot nesting frigates, swim with curious sea lions and also watch blue-footed boobies hunting for fish. The volcanic walks take you through lava tunnels and up Sierra Negra, which happens to be the world's second largest volcanic crater. When you stay island-based, there's time to kayak Las Tintoreras, see giant tortoises roaming their highland homes and also visit the Charles Darwin Research Station.
