A once in a lifetime adventure to Ecuador and a Galapagos cruise aboard the Millenium. Add this trip to your \"bucket list.\" A group of friends set off to experience the best of the country, including ziplining, horseback riding, snorkeling, and lots of wildlife on their Galapagos cruise.
Home, sweet Aliso (Ranny Pierce)It's hard to believe that we are in the capital of Ecuador. Frankly, before looking into a trip to the Galapagos I never really thought about spending much time in Quito.
I'm so glad that we made the decision to come a few days early and spend time exploring the capital city and the beautiful towns and countryside outside of Quito.
In fact, in hindsight, we could have added a few more; there's just so much to see.
I also would suggest (depending on your age - we're in our mid-sixties) to do more in Quito before your trip to the Galapagos. You'll have more energy, as the Galapagos can be a bit exhausting.
The airport was bustling, even at 10:00 at night. Our guide was "right there" waiting for us and ready to take us to our hotel - Casa Aliso. A little gem - a boutique hotel - a charming place to stay.
More about the hotel in tomorrow's journal. Tired now and it's time to go to bed.
Our team is waiting and ready to talk with you about your next adventure.
So go ahead and book an appointment with one of our specialized trip planners.
If you go to the Galápagos, ask for James Sanchez as your guide he was fantastic! Very nice and extremely knowledgeable

We have had excellent results when working with Adventure Life. We've just set up out third trip with them because the first two were great! Adventure Life has always listened, worked with us, and set up trips the way we've wanted. They've also found experiences we wouldn't have known about otherwise, that have been some of the highlights of the entire trip.
