I had always dreamed of taking my wife and kids to the Galapagos and last winter we were able to do it. We didn't want to be part of a larger group and were a little put off by the "cruise tours" some what cras marketing. Fortunately we found Come To Galapagos. Our first contact e-mail was replied to within hours, a phone conversation followed shortly after that and several months later we were on our way. From the moment we landed in Quito we were confident we were in good hands and could relax. The hotels and guides on the continent were wonderful. I left my camera in the van on the day we toured Quito and Come to Galapagos had it waiting for me in the airport when we arrived in the Galapagos. To be able to have been welcomed into the community as we were and then shown the islands from the perspective of these wonderful people was an experience we didn't even know to dream of. The food was wonderful, locally grown and caught, the guides were delightful, knowledgeble and with excellent people skills, instinctively knowing when it was best to fade into the background for family time and step forward when there was something noteable to be seen. They made a vacation of a lifetime, truly a vacation of a lifetime.
