    I did receive my updated itinerary until day 3 after following the original one, being confused and having to message the operator multiple times. When I did reach out to the operator upset on day 2, she was unkind and blamed me. This was a poor way to handle a solo female traveler in a foreign country. On day 3, she sent me an itinerary that was consistent and things went okay from there. She also misspelt my name on EVERY document so every tour guide and sign with my name on it was wrong for 10 days which I found annoying.

    After the very disappointing start of the trip it was indeed interesting and enjoyable. Our new travel agent put together a good itinerary (together with us ) and took well care of us. I still don’t understand why we weren’t met by a guide at Baltra airport as scheduled. We waited for hours and succeeded to get the last bus out of there and by the ferry there were no more busses to Puerto Ayoro. We had to take a taxi and then get a hotel in Puerto Ayora. During the day we made numerous expensive phone calls to England to get in contact with our “tour operator “ but without success. First in the evening when we were out eating we were contacted. We had already then been to a new travel agent and organised a trip, which
