This past spring, I checked a major box on my bucket travel list when Steve and I visited the Galapagos Islands. There was a lot of hype for this trip and it lived up to every bit of it!
We cruised 556.5 nautical miles around six of the larger and a few smaller islands, glimpsing amazing wildlife like the blue-footed booby, sea lion pups, penguins, marine iguanas, sea turtles and more!
Being in the Galapagos felt like we were at the end of the world, with landscapes as extreme as the wildlife we encountered. I highly recommend this trip and know it is an experience I will never forget!
