Traveler Comments
Water was bit cold for snorkeling
Isabella island was our favorite island out of the three we visited.
We truly enjoyed all this tour packed in. We saw so many animals, from penguins to turtles to sea lions and everything in between. We loved that we got to snorkel as well as walk around and see land animals. Our guides were fantastic, knowledgeable, and friendly. A highlight for us was the tortoise breeding center, walking through the mangroves to see the flamingos and marine iguanas, and the delicious lunch.
