Group travel experience

It was over developed and full of tourists. Not the nature based getaway I had hoped for. Free diving and snorkelling were great there. And it’s nice to see the giant tortoises but beyond that there’s not much else to do. I visited several islands but they had no wildlife and were also overdeveloped. Overall I was disappointed.

Group travel experience

I spent 10 days on a small boat (16 passengers) exploring the outer islands. I 100% recommend doing that if it is possible. We would visit a different island every day, all of them teeming with animals, some that exist only on that island. We rarely even saw a boat on the horizon for the first week, then moved inwards to the populated Islands, which were less interesting to me. It is the trip of a lifetime, so my one piece of advice is to really go for it.
