[Galapagos Islands] The birthplace of the theory of evolution! The Galapagos Islands, a treasure trove of wildlife

The Galapagos Islands in South America are known for Darwin's theory of evolution, and are a world-famous island that often appears in "The World's Most Breathtaking Sights You Should Visit Before You Die". This island was separated from the continent long ago and lived as an isolated island in the middle of the ocean for a long time. Many of the wild animals are endemic to this island, and the entire island is now protected as a World Heritage Site. As a result, the animals are not afraid of humans at all, and you can leisurely observe them at a close range. *However, touching or feeding them is prohibited. From the moment you arrive at the port, you will be greeted by a family of seals and giant iguanas, which will get you excited, but surprisingly, after an hour you will get used to the sight and the excitement will fade. It's scary how quickly humans get used to things. The tourist bases of the Galapagos Islands, which consist of 19 islands, are mainly the largest island, Isabela Island, and Santa Cruz Island, where the airport is located (more precisely, , and an international airport is on Baltra Island, located north of Santa Cruz Island) Santa Cruz Island is a paradise for giant tortoises, and Isabela Island is home to wild animals such as seals, iguanas, pelicans, and flamingos, as well as volcanoes. The Galapagos is now a major resort, so prices and everything are extremely high. However, there are low seasons (September to November, February, and April to June), and if you choose those, the cost will be slightly cheaper. In particular, tours have last-minute discounts, so they are a good target as they can be significantly discounted. There are several travel agencies on site. Then, you will need to pay $100 per person as an entrance fee at the airport. The boat fare from island to island is separate. It costs a lot, but more than that, there are many experiences that you can only experience in the Galapagos, so it is especially recommended for animal lovers. #trip overseas travel #Ecuador #Galapagos #breathtaking views #world heritage site #island trip #wildlife
