Hello,
Headinh to the galapagos islands as part of south am adventure. (Oct-dec)
Has anyone had good experiences with any partic tour companies or suggestions on period of time to spend there?
Would also like to do some scuba diving (presume I would do that separately to an island tour?)
Many thanks!


Thanks again Aguas'. Appreciate the Galapagos aren't cheap, buy it seems a shame to miss out after travelling so far :-). We can balance the cost staying in dorms instead of doubles on part of pur trip.

Well, I had a great experience with this travel company "eq touring".
They offer a lot of cruises for the Galapagos but they also made my trip with some spectacular tours I booked. The guides are very knowledgeable and I learned a lot about Ecuador! I really loved it.

And by the way, great choice by visiting Ecuador!
