Galapagos Island Travel
The Galapagos Islands comprise an archipelago off the coast of Ecuador, made up of 13 main islands and many lesser islands and islets. The oldest island is believed to have been formed by tectonic activity between five and ten million years ago. The youngest islands are still being added to by volcanic activity, making this an exciting destination as well as a great learning experience for youngsters. These "Enchanted Isles" are a primitive world unto themselves, as you'll discover with Galapagos Island travel. Because of their isolation, there are species of birds, reptiles and other animals here that exist nowhere else in the world. Here you can even get up close and personal with a giant tortoise, weighing more than 600 pounds! There are dragon-like iguanas, sea lions, penguins (yes, near the Equator!), and innumerable species of birds, including the blue-footed booby, the flightless cormorant, Darwin's finches and the Galapagos hawk. Galapagos Island travel offers you a chance to witness this one of a kind place firsthand. The adventure tour offered by Generations Touring Company (GTC) is no dry bird-watching expedition, though.
