Amazing Galapagos Trips

Galapagos Trips are a great way to spend a vacation if you are a nature or animal lover.

The Galapagos are an archipelago of volcanic islands that straddle the equator.

This cluster consists of fifteen main islands with land areas larger than one kilometer.

A Galapagos trip takes significant travel time to get to, but is worth the effort.

The pictures shown on these Galapagos pages are from a trip I took with a friend to the Galapagos Islands.

Inexpensive Vacation Ideas for the Galapagos Islands

• Anytime is a good time to travel to the Galapagos! The Galapagos Islands lie directly on the Equator. The temperatures range from the high 60s to the mid 80s degrees F throughout the year.

Some times of the year are rainier than other. Each time of the year has its benefits and drawbacks. However, the wildlife is amazing whenever you choose to go. I went with a friend in April and we had a blast!

• Consider taking a Galapagos Island Cruise.

• Consider Galapagos Island Tours. Tours get group discounts and these can be passed on to you.

• Research the best hotel and airline rates on line. See: Book Travel Online.

• Book early to get great rates.

• Purchase a good Galapagos book with expert advice on the Galapagos Islands, opinions of what's worth your time and what's not, off-the-beaten-path experiences and more.

The few dollars you spend will be returned many times over. Whenever I travel to a new place I make sure and get one or two guides.

Consider Frommer’s Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands. Frommer’s puts out excellent guides.
