Highlights
BALTRA
Santa Cruz Island - Option 1: Itinerary for flights arriving at Baltra before 12:00 PM
At Baltra airport, an English-speaking guide will pick you up to go to Puerto Ayora to enjoy your lunch. After lunch, you’ll take the speedboat to Isabela Island. This can be a bumpy ride so provide yourself a waterproof jacket and motion sickness medication if necessary. After a drive around the island, your driver will drop you off at your hotel.
Santa Cruz Island - Option 2: Itinerary for flights arriving at Baltra after 12:00 PM
If your flight is scheduled to arrive after 12:00 PM, you’ll stay at Santa Cruz Island on the first day because the last speedboat to Isabela Island leaves around 03:00 PM. You won’t have lunch in this case. If you have time you have an activity, either Tortuga Bay or Charles Darwin Station. The rest of the tour usually looks like this: Day 2: Santa Fe, Day 3 Bahia half day tour & Tortuga Bay / Charles Darwin Station, Day 4 Santa Cruz highlands, afternoon boat to Isabela, Day 5 Wetlands & Tintoreras, Day 6 Los Tuneles, Day 7 morning boat to Santa Cruz and transfer out.

The best holidays of my life! - I decided last-minute to escape to the Galapagos for the Easter holidays, and Rebecca adventures and especially Andrea gave me fantastic help. Literally just a few hours before my flight took off from Europe they have organised all the details of my 7-days holidays, and booked all my accommodation, local transfers and exciting tours. All was fantastic! They provided a high quality and reliable service, with local and reliable providers, everything went absolutely smoothly and I did not only got the chance to participate in amazing programs but I also met truly kind people on the road. It was undoubtedly the best holidays of my life, and I hope to explore some of their other adventures in the future.

ISLAND HOPPING MADE EASY... - After several days of frustration, searching the plethora of tour companies in The Galapagos, I was pleasantly surprised when Rebecca Travel was not only quick to respond but LISTENED to my needs. After deciding that the 7 Day Island Hopping Tour was the best for me, I immediately got a descriptive DAILY Itinerary of the events, expectations and preparations for each day. The hotels exceeded expectations. They were modern, all had fast wifi and convenient to walk to restaurants and sites. Best of all the customer service was fast, efficient and they helped with everything from entry requirements into Ecuador and The Galapagos to coordinating Covid PCR tests as we exited the country. HIGHLY RECOMMEND REBECCA TRAVELS and know you will appreciate how they go above and beyond to accommodate their guests.

Enchanted Galapagos - We (my husband and I ) had an amazing time in the Galapagos Islands! We did this trip at the end of October 2020 after the stressful lockdown covid months, so we were looking forward to unwind and visit for the first time the enchanted islands as our vacation. The tours designed by Rebecca Adventure were perfect and customized to our taste and needs. We visited Santa Cruz and Isabela and it was perfect because there weren't many tourists at the time due to the pandemic. We were truly impressed with all the activities, the wildlife and the services provided by our tour guides. We got to see most of the land and marine fauna that we expected, including hammerhead sharks. It was without a doubt one of the most memorable trips of our lives. We highly recommend Rebecca Adventure as your tour agency for the Galapagos and Ecuador. Biosecurity measures were very well respected on the islands, so its safe to travel! If you're looking to come to Ecuador and the Galapagos this is the time, still less tourists, the wildlife is truly impressive and besides life is short, take risks and ENJOY IT!

Amazing - We decided to go with Rebecca Adventure Travels after shopping around online and reading the reviews. Delighted to say we were not disappointed and couldn’t have asked for a more well organised and special trip. We went with the 8 day budget island hopping tour and were pleasantly surprised with how nice our hotels and food were. Did not seem budget to us. The tours on each island were very well organised and of the highest standard - something we learned speaking to people on other tours who did not seem to have the same special treatment/experience as we did. Our guides were all brilliant, really enthusiastic, knowledgeable and just very good company! In particular Michael, Darwin, Cesar, and Javiar. Thank you for an amazing week we will never forget and thank you to Rebecca Adventure Travels. Easily one of the best trips of our lives.

Inconsistent at best - Mixed results. The first half of the tour was outstanding. The second half of the tour seemed disorganized with poor communication and while portions of the second half were enjoyable, it didn’t really meet our expectations. Given the great reviews this company and tour got, we were shocked at how poorly things were executed in the second half of the trip.
