- CeciliaParra· September 18th, 2019Cecilia From Lead Adventures was AMAZING! She worked with us - providing different choices of itineraries according to our budget and what we wanted to do or see. The Galapagos Experience was stellar! The activities in Peru were exceptional. The two weeks were packed with activities. I appreciated this because we saw and experienced so much in so little time. Doing this enabled me to pinpoint places that I would like to visit in the future for a longer length of time. Thank you for an experience of a lifetime.Show more

Amber
Asked on October 10th, 2023What's the main difference between this & the 3 weeks galapacos travel & volunteer trip? What are the additional costs?
- Lead Adventures Operator•Written October 2023
The main difference between a 2-week and a 3-week trip to the Galapagos Islands, would typically be the duration of the trip. A 3-week trip would be longer allowing to have time for more activities, exploration, and volunteering opportunities, as well as a deeper immersion into the local culture and environment. In this case 3 weeks trip have one week of volunteering.

Asked on June 22nd, 2023Can you confirm what time we would arrive in Quito on 13th December please?
- Lead Adventures Operator•Written June 2023
Normally flights from Galapagos arrive between 4 to 5 pm. For that reason we add one more night in Quito so you can depart the next day with no rush.
