The water was clear and nice, but the sea lice wuld not stop following me! They were biting me every second of the day.
The fascinating animals there are so awesome! There were so many marine life! there was birds of all types some that dive and some that fly! I love this place so much (^▽^)
The folks complaining that it's expensive, or that there are too many rules & regulations are ridiculous. There is a very clear reason why they're put in place, and maybe that's a good thing to deter certain tourists that expect the island to be like an all-inclusive resort with endless entertainment.
Respect the sanctity of the islands and its people! This is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with one of the most protected, brilliant, and remote ecosystems in the world. If you come, do your research, and you'll find the nature unique and impressive. If not, well, that's all the better for us "nature freaks"!
This is a trip of a lifetime and I would not hesitate to come back.

Galapagos turtle 🐢 are the best thing present here. This island create by volcanoes. This is a UNESCO's site. Nice beauty present. One day i will come here definitely.
Other than the travel to get there; I t’s a beautiful place, with wonderful people, amazing sites and experiences.
Wow, the most beautiful place on earth, giant tortoises wandering the streets, visit the Charles Darwin sanctury, there are amazing guides, the one we had called the birds to us and sang to the tortoises so they raised their heads to us, just magical, the sea lions just hop out of the sea and hop on the street benches. Very beautiful
Galapagos is a lifetime experience. To get the most out of it, don't book a tour every day. Leave at least one day free to get to know the local beaches and people a little bit better. The tours consume a lot of energy and time and, although they are worth it, they prevent you from digging a little bit deeper into the local culture. Make sure to eat where the locals eat. The food will be tasty and not as expensive and you will get the experience of sharing a meal with people from the islands. When going from one Island to another, make sure that you take one of the sea sickness pills. The ride is very bumpy and the boat tilts and rolls quite a lot. If you are not used to this kind of motion, you will get nausea. If you have never snorkeled, I recommend you practice at your local pool before trying it for the first time during the tour. Don't underestimate the mechanics of breathing through the tube. Finally, since for most people this is a once in a lifetime experience, I recommend bringing good photographic equipment. You should have at least one good underwater camera and a relatively portable camera where you can exchange lenses. I do not recommend bringing large cameras. They will weigh you down on the long walks and they will be a constant source of worry given the sand and water. In short, just enjoy the wonderful experience of the Galapago Islands.
Trip of a lifetime!!! Spent seven days on a liveaboard dive ship with the Aggressor fleet, which was also highly recommended by serious dive friends (over 5k dives each). Some of the most incredible dives that I've done and would go back in a heartbeat!! However, you absolutely need to book very much in advance!
