Creator's Key Takeaways

we are a familyowned travel company um it was started by my two parents Dolores and Eduardo Diaz back in 1986

the untouched or primitive nature of the wildlife in Galapagos is incredible um these are remote destination so you won't find you know a Marriott um in these national parks

the first is you know booking your air because you're taking advantage of a discount from the airline right so most people they see for example latam airlines that has flights out to the Galapagos or a Bianca have this great discount to get there and you book and when you start figuring out what cruise fits with those dates you end up you know with a conclusion that none of them do

one week is the minimum duration for to get a great Galapagos experience all right and actually you know for Americans most of them take vacations one week at a time so it actually worked out really well with our main Market

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book your cruise before booking flights to ensure dates align.
Choose small-group expeditions for intimate wildlife encounters.
Opt for week-long cruises for a complete Galapagos experience.
Travel during secret season (September-November) for fewer crowds and potential discounts.
