Visiting two of the world's most famous attractions is now possible in one tour. A Galapagos and Machu Picchu tour will take you to Ecuador and Peru for an unforgettable trip. Both these Andean nations have an incredible variety of activities and experiences to offer.
The Galapagos islands are the stuff of legend. This collection of islands inspired one of the most important theories ever when Charles Darwin noticed the distinctive species there. Since then they have become a dream destination for many.
Tourists dream of these legendary islands because of the animals. They are not afraid of people so do not run away at the first sight of a landing boat. There is nowhere else where you can get so close to wild animals so you will get some incredible photos.
Each day normally consists of a couple of walking tours and snorkelling. In between tours the boats move to different islands. This means you will get to see everything including the famous marine iguanas, giant tortoises and flightless cormorants. Snorkelling trips also provide opportunities to get close to penguins, sea lions and even hammerhead sharks while swimming over sunken volcanoes.
The Galapagos are situated just off the coast of Ecuador in the west of South America. It is a small country with lots to offer in a small geographical location. Flights to the islands leave from Guayaquil on the coast so all visitors must pass through Ecuador. From there it is a short flight to Lima, the capital of Peru.
Make sure you have charged your camera batteries for the visit to Machu Picchu. Just getting there is an adventure but the site itself is breathtaking. Early morning visitors get to see it at its most magical as the mists rise from the ruins to reveal the surrounding jungle covered mountains.
From Cusco there is a train to the high jungle to see the citadel. It takes a few hours but you wont be bored. It is a truly spectacular journey as you descend the high valleys into the cloud forest. The tour will include a guided tour of the site which is essential to understand what happened there and the ingenious talents of the Inca builders.
Navigating Ecuador and Peru, and the rules and regulations of these unique places can be troublesome when planning a trip. Booking an organised tour takes all the hassle away. People with local knowledge and years of experience can make sure that every passenger gets the most from the trip. They can also provide good accommodation, travel tickets and find the best places to eat.
