We woke up at 5:00 am, took showers, ate the muffins we had bought at Magic Bean last night, and were ready for our taxi at 6. We quickly checked in at the airport where there was no line at all and then went through security. We went to our gate and were hand searched. No food or drinks were allowed at the gate, so I walked down the concourse, drank a Fanta, and brought one back to the gate for Craig. He stepped outside of the gate area to drink it. A large group of about a dozen people who had been on a Galapagos cruise together were seated next to us, and we overheard them recounting some of their exploits. We boarded the plane. It took off on time and we were served a heated ham and cheese breakfast sandwich with plantains on the flight.

We landed in Miami at 1:50 pm and were through immigration and customs by 2:12. That is unheard of! We had Pizza Hut and Gatorade and did some people watching. Our plane took off on time at 4:05. It was an uneventful flight home, and we landed in Boston at 7:20 pm on Memorial Day.
Excellent travel advice and service
This is my second experience working with Adventure Life. I’m sold. Jess Heuermann is an experienced traveler and provides a lot of useful information when planning a trip. These are the questions I like to ask at the outset - What’s it like to go here, there, what would you suggest, what do people report, can we add any additional side trips? Jess took the time to answer my questions and seek additional information to share with me. Petchie Colina is outstanding in helping with travel logistics and final preparations. Adventure Life has excellent guides and offers private guides and small group adventures. We enjoyed the opportunity to talk with the guides and drivers to learn more about their countries, cultures and histories. A highlight was having the guides pick local restaurants where we could share meals together. Highly recommend.

Jess was very easy going and answered all our questions. It’s not easy dealing with 6 people at once but she did an outstanding job!

We loved our time aboard the Angel. Beautiful boat and crew. Naturalist Jose Luis was incredible-very knowledgeable and thoughtful. He adapted tours to our group and we all had an amazing trip. Love staying a the quaint hacienda and the recommended activities.
