My family and I had an amazing trip to Quito and the Galápagos Islands . Anthony was our point of contact with Kim Kim travel and he did an excellent job staying in contact with us with the planning an execution of the trip. Kim Kim travel planned a spectacular vacation for us from interesting museums at the equator to boating adventures to see wildlife in their unique habitat. I would highly recommend this organization for their attention to detail making your trip stress free and full of memorable experiences.

There is probably no where else in the world where you can kayak right next to black tip sharks and sea turtles in the same bay. There is also a beautiful nature hike to the water.
