4:50 A.M. CANAL WILDLIFE TOUR:
Our guide wakes us up with a knock on the door for our 5:30 am canal tour. What a beautiful way to start the morning. We were able to see: a caman, all three types of monkeys (Howler, White faced, Spider), iguanas, nocturnal birds, Jesus Christ Lizards walking on water. And when we returned one of the gardeners of the Lodge had found a Boa Constrictor and we all got great photos of that!
8:30 a.m. Breakfast with always fresh made juice of the day! Different every day!
RAINFOREST WALK/TOUR: Once again our guide takes us on a tour of the forest. But first hits the coconut trees. Teaches us all about the diferent stages of the coconut and the benefits to drinking its juices especially before going on long, hot walks for hydration. (GOOD THING, WE NEEDED IT!) Cuz we hiked past, through, over, under, large rainforest plants and trails in our special rubber boots (provided by the Lodge). This was HOT and MUGGY and had lots of MOSQUITOES. But I would do it all over again and again. We got to see and learn about so many plants and animals. The kids loved the eye-lash viper snake, the blue-jean venemous frog, etc... This was the very reason we came, to walk in the rainforest.
SIESTA! After an early morning start, we thought we should get a small rest so the kids were ready to go on the next adventure: Night Walk with the Turtles!
NIGHT TURTLE WATCH TOUR: 8:30 pm - Another boat ride, except this one in the black of night! How exciting! We got to witness a green back sea turtle lay her eggs, cover them, camoflage them, and then walk by its side as it returned to sea. A MIRACLE!! That was amazing to watch and be a part of. A gift from God!
The agent had great response to questions and coordinated well to create an itinerary that met our expectations.

Kelly and Rhenee were excellent to work with on planning our trip. The logistics all worked smoothly and everyone was friendly and on time. Our accommodations were very good, particularly the incredible Patagonia Camp in Torres del Paine! Our guides on every excursion were outstanding and made the hikes memorable! Overall we had a wonderful trip with incredible memories!

Adventure Life is definitely a first-class safari tour company, and our representative was Franny Friesz. First of all, she responded immediately after we contacted Adventure Life. We told Franny that we had never been on a safari, and she was more than eager to offer a mountain of information about the trip. She informed us fully about all the ups, downs, and all arounds! She even prepared a number of packages for us to review -- even after we made changes to the areas we wanted to explore. Friendly, helpful, professional, and extremely knowledgeable -- these words describe Franny, and what a wonderful trip she prepared! We couldn't have asked for better service than Franny of Adventure Life. We HIGHLY recommend her and her outstanding company! Bon Voyage!

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.
