I was fortunate enough to be a guest for an incredible 8 day cruise with Exodus Travels on the sail boat the Cachelote. There are a number of Galapagos Cruises in the islands but this is one of the few that actually offers a sail boat option and believe me if you are visiting the Galapagos islands you want to be on a sail boat.
I wasn't sure what to expect on a Galapagos Islands tour, everyone says the area is fantastic but I wasn't sure if it could really live up to its hype. But I must say it lived up to it and so much more. Over the 8 day cruise we visited: Santa Fe, Kicker Rock, San Cristobal, Punta Suarez, Post Office Bay, Punta Cormorant, Sullivan Bay, Genovesa, Floreana, Turtle Cove and more. Each day I wondered how the next could possible compare but each day was so incredible.
The most interesting on the Galapagos tours is that the animals are not afraid at all. As a visitor you have to be very careful not to get too close to the animals as they will walk right up to you. You do need to be wary with the sea lions, especially the male bulls who may be protecting the females. I also discovered one day that a small sea lion thought I was shooting some of the video too close and nipped me on the leg as a warning. I took the hint and moved back.
On a Galapagos Islands tour you see so many animals, including the sea lions I mentioned above, fur seals, three types of sharks, manta rays, turtles, dolphins, friggot birds, albatross, so many types of lizards and iguanas and each islands animals can be completely different.
I am so grateful to Exodus for hosting me on this Galapagos cruise, it is truly a magical place and one that I'll never forget.
