Considering A Joint Galapagos And Machu Picchu Tour

By Patty Goff


With their close nearness on the Southern American continent, it is doable to take part in a galapagos and machu picchu tour within a two week time period. The two destinations are famous for the cultural intrigues and natural wonders that have drawn people for centuries. In just over two weeks you get to experience legends, ruins, wildlife, natural habitat, foods and cultures that are distinctive to Ecuador and Peru.

The Enchanted Isles and islands of Galapagos are in perfect contrast to the Lost City of the Incas in Peru. You can go as far as saying that it makes for the perfect beach and inland vacation all in one. There is a touch of luxury to be added in the form of a cruise boat and upgraded accommodation, or on the flip side, backpacking wanderers may chose to settle for the basic tourist living arrangements in this South American holiday destination.

For the duration of a broad tour of Peru and Ecuador you are to come across a brilliant pair of the wonders of the ancient word. The one wonder is all about the natural the unscathed land and sea life. Its archipelago wildlife along with delicate flora is plainly exceptional to Latin America. Activities include flanking hospitable sea lions and sea turtles while snorkeling in lucid waters.

The second wonder is as natural as if it were only created yesterday. The delicate flora and unmatched wildlife of the Galapagos Islands is truly unique to the Latin American continent. Here travelers spend their days snorkeling in the company of sea lions, ocean fish and sea turtles in perfectly translucent waters.

It should be noted that the hotel amenities in South America is not equal to those experienced in the United States. Smaller rooms are customary, but each room has a private bathroom. Rooms are fitted with regular hotel room amenities such as air conditioning and other items that fall under worldwide hotel standards. When it comes to food, the hotels create a blend between local foods such as barbecued chicken, fish and meat, as well as condiments and side foods that are closer to the taste of the visitors and their home countries.

Travelers who do not have the ability to walk without walking aids or those who are in wheelchairs, will not be able to adapt to the requirements of traveling as part of such a tour. Between six and eight hours of physical activities such as walking along the tough terrain is required daily. The altitude in Peru also reaches anything between seven thousand and eleven thousand feet. On budgeted vacations people also carry their own luggage along the travels.

An average duration of such a tour is eighteen days long. The escorted trips include items such as tour guiding through the educational and cultural sites, airport transfers, tour leaders that assist with swimming and hiking activities and inclusions of certain local payments that form part of the tour. Breakfasts are served daily to tourists who stay in hotels.

On a continent such as Latin America, which is equally diverse as it is magnificent, it makes sense to travel the distance and get two flies with one stone. Some adventurers set aside half a year of their travel time to explore as much of this part of the world. For those with limited time, three weeks is ideal to see but two of the gems of the Southern American continent.
