In January 2022. we made the trip to the Galapagos. Truly a jewel in the Pacific, with minimal human impact, this set of Islands are an amazing destination.

It is not easy to get to Isabela Island.... You fly from Guayaquil, land and board a small boat. Across the inlet, then onto a bus... Bus to a launch, then onto a high speed boat for 2-hours... Back onto the launch, and onto a bus. Finally, about 12-hours later, you are at your hotel.
