The first part of the tour with Leo as our tour guide was superb. Second part in Galapagos Genesis needs to understand how seniors cope in really hot weather and long 2-3 k walks. I could not complete the walk to Tortuga bay, she never mentioned that we could have got a water taxi back, and if she had suggested a taxi to the walk to the beach, that would have been better too. Also, Leo set up a WhatsApp group, Genesis didn’t so I font have the link for Intredid to give feedback Genesis is passionate about the islands, but bring so young, doesn’t understand older people’s needsShow more
