Love the Galapagos, great experience with Rebecca adventure travel
The islands were beautiful! We saw 3 islands, with the travel agency arranging everything from start to finish. Clean neat hotels, English speaking guides, transfers from island to island. The best part was the fantastic activities every day. Snorkeling at Kicker Rock and Los Tuneles is really a must! But we also went kayaking and paddle boarding. Everything we wanted to do was arranged for us. A super price quality ratio for the trip of our dreams.

Honeymoon in the Galapagos
My wife and I had an amazing time using Rebecca Adventure Travel to book our honeymoon in the Galapagos islands. Prior to the trip we were worried about the planning of activities. As we have never been to the Galapagos Islands, it was challenging to understand the best way to book a trip, especially in the midst of the pandemic. In planning the trip, we were emailed directly by a Rebecca Adventure travel agent (Karina), who was extremely helpful in booking our trip and answering our (many) questions. She also asked us questions to ensure we would have an amazing time in the Galapagos. Our trip consisted of 9 days in the Galapagos. We originally planned for 8, but due to flight timing and COVID testing processes, we added one extra day.
Upon arrival in the Galapagos, we were greeted by a local guide (Wendy), who brought us from the airport directly to the hotel. This was a common theme throughout the trip, as we were greeted by local guides to take us to and from our hotel and travel accommodations based on our trip's activities. We also had plenty of time to explore the islands for ourselves which included exploring the various beaches on the islands, renting bikes to trek to the wall of tears, and enjoying the cuisine at the local restaurants. We spent much of the trip at sea on boats, kayaks and yachts. We visited Kicker Rock, Pinnacle Rock, and Los Tuneles where we snorkeled or scuba dived with sea turtles, sea lions, beautiful fish, and sharks! We also travelled to the Santa Cruz Highlands where we saw the amazing Galapagos Turtles. Everything was exactly how we dreamed it would be on our honeymoon.
We enjoyed staying at the local hotels, which were clean and the staff was friendly. We especially liked the Hotel Ikala in Puerto Ayora, which offered us breakfast in an enclosed rooftop area where we could view out into the sea. At each hotel, the staff was aware that it was our honeymoon, and offered us complimentary cocktails and/or a bottle of wine. On the final night of our trip, a local Rebecca Adventure Travel guide brought us to one of the best restaurants on the island of Santa Cruz for a celebration dinner. We couldn't have asked for anything more.

Fantastic Experience - I fell in love.
I cannot even begin to describe the details that Rebecca Adventure Travel remember. Literally it is everything. I have never been taken care of so well and so extensively. The daily tours and activities were fantastic, the individuals greeting me on each island were friendly, helpful, informative and just generally wonderful folks. I am truly impressed with the detail, caring nature and the just general desire to please. Thanks to Rebecca Adventure Travel, I have truly fallen in love with the Galapagos and will be heading back soon.

The Galapagos trip of our dreams
Rebecca Travel made our trip to Quito and the Galapagos everything we wanted. Working with Karina was wonderful, she's fast to respond to any questions and great with itinerary details. The hotels we stayed at were all lovely, and the guides (Fernando in Quito especially!) were all great.

Amazing adventures
We took the 8 day Galapagos Island Hopping tour in May 2019 and would highly recommend it! Rebecca Travel gave us an itinerary of planned activities for each day and recommendations for restaurants and other activities to do in the area. The format of the trip fit our travel style really well. Breakfast was provided most days, transportation picked us up from the hotel for activities, and the guides made sure we had a great time and got where we needed. Rebecca Travel was quick to answer my questions via Whatsapp and made sure we were taken care of. The activities were awesome! We went snorkeling multiple times with knowledgeable guides who worked hard to make sure we got to see all the wildlife we could. For the activities we did, the snorkeling gear was provided. We rented wet suits which helped a lot because the water was chillier than expected. We are fair skinned so we made sure to wear sun shirts, long hiking pants, sturdy shoes, water/land sandals, and wide brim hats. Make sure to bring plenty of sun block because it is expensive on the islands. Bring Dramamine for the boat rides between islands, the water can be choppy. Underwater cameras are a great to have but many of our guides took pictures and videos for us.

Unforgettable Galapagos trip in 8 days
We hired the 8-day Galapagos tour, and very happy with the experience and with the excursions. We also had a problem with the flight company IBERIA, who did not take our bags to Bartra Island, and left us in Quito, and the follow-up of managing the collection of bags until taking them from Bartra airport to the hotel where we were staying, was a courtesy of Rebecca Adventure Travel Enterprise, which is always to be appreciated in these desperate cases and that you do not want to miss a day of travel. In Isabela Island we made friends with the guide Alfredo, nicknamed Minino, with whom we made the excursion to the Tunnels and that was the best experience we had and in Santa Cruz Island with the guide Cesar, who taught us the turtles as no one had done and with a very affectionate treatment. The bay tour that was contracted with another company we did not like, and the isabela top was loose, but otherwise was wonderful and recommended to 100%
