It was an amazing adventure. Was anxious about travelling in a group but got on really well with everyone. Enjoyed going out for meals with everyone and having a guide to point out what otherwise might have missed. Was nice leaving the organisation to the guide.

It’s then off to the Galapagos, exploring land and sea in search of sharks, giant tortoises, sea lions and more with an expert naturalist guide.
