Most people have the Galapagos Islands in their top 2-3 bucket list places to visit. It was on ours as well and we can say with confidence that it belongs on the list. If you are looking to go to a place in the world that is mostly untouched by humans where you can see animals (some very unique), this is the place. Whether it’s swimming with hammerhead sharks or penguins, whether it’s getting up close and personal with iguanas, whether it’s checking out the rare species of birds like the blue footed booby, or whether it’s watching pod of 100+ dolphins swim by, this is the place to go.
