Playing in the turtle shellsBrimming with excitement to get the adventure off on time we woke up at 5 AM and drove to the airport, JFK, bright and early. We selected to fly into Guayaquil since there was a direct flight on LAN, which turned out to be a very good airline. Most of our tour members flew into Quito, but we figured that since Guayaquil was the departure point for Galapagos the next day, it would be better which we're still not sure of. There's probably more to see in Quito. Our flight was about 7 hours and amazingly we linked up with our son, Russell when we landed in Guayaquil. Amazing since Russ left SF airport @ 1 AM and had 4 stops before arriving at Gualaquil; and his luggage arrived with him too! We stayed right in town at the Guayaquil Grand Hotel and walked around town to the new boardwalk area by the ocean. Not much to see but we were tired and hit the covers early that night.
My travel consultant went out of her way to make sure everything went smoothly, everything from the flight reservations to the final booking.

The staff at Adventure Life made planning my family's trip to the Galapagos Islands as easy as possible. They listened to what we were hoping to experience and made thoughtful suggestions about how to accomplish our vacation goals while meeting the needs of travelers ages 17-76! They patiently answered questions and follow up questions in the months leading up to the trip. They helped us trouble shoot and customize the trip in every way possible. The logistics involved in traveling from Boston to the Galapagos are innumerable. The Adventure Life staff helped us arrange every detail and the team they assembled in the Galapagos was tremendous. I have never done a trip this big before and after working with Adventure Life this time--would not hesitate one second in working with them again.
