The truth is there’s no bad time to visit the Galapagos…every season offers something incredible to see. But if you’re looking for a sweet spot, October and November are worth considering.

🌊 Cool, nutrient-rich waters attract a high concentration of marine life

🦭 Sea lion pups born in late summer are now curious, playful, and spending more time in the water, creating some of the cutest wildlife encounters

📸: Volcanoes Safaris

✉️ Postcard from Ecuador! Our guests just returned from a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Ecuador’s Cloud Forest to celebrate a graduation!

Check out Stephen Sherrard’s incredible photos of the iridescent hummingbirds and see what the family has to say about their unique and exciting birdwatching experience:

“We made three unforgettable visits to the hummingbird garden, where at least 14 varieties of hummingbirds fluttered around us, feeding from both the feeders and directly from our hands. Our guide also planned a surprise visit to the Mashpi Amagusa Reserve to see many more special birds after he realized we were serious about photographing wildlife. We all had a blissful time birdwatching in the misty morning.”

These remarkable birds are known for their graceful, dance-like courtship displays, which helps them to find their mate for life. With an extraordinary wingspan, they can spend majority of their lives at sea, only returning to the island to breed, nest, and raise their chicks.
