Have you ever dreamed of visiting the Galápagos... snorkeling with sea turtles, trying your hand at surfing, or sitting on the beach watching Galápagos marine iguanas and Galápagos sea lions walk right by you? Travel to the Galápagos with Elm Street Photography Tours LLC, and get the ultimate in personalized service. We are not your typical travel agent, one who sits behind a desk all day and makes reservations for their clients. You are not a client of ours; you will be treated like family. We travel to every location that we offer excursions to. We do this to develop local relationships and to make sure that when we say the spaghetti is good in a particular restaurant, we know this because we have dined there personally.

​

You could plan your Galápagos experience yourself, but why? I will do all of the work for you: arranging your flights, hotels, and daily sightseeing excursions. Visiting the Galápagos has many restrictions. We will help you navigate all of the local regulations and laws, so you have the experience of a lifetime.​​

​​​​​​​​​​

Our Galápagos experience is 6-night/7-day and includes the following...

 

Airfare

Round-trip airfare from most major airports in the USA to Isla Baltra in the Galápagos. This will include your first checked bag and a personal item carry-on. Elm Street Photography Tours LLC will choose all seats.

​

Additional transportation option:

Once you arrive in the Galápagos on Isla Baltra, you will need to either travel by boat to Isla Isabela or by semi-private plane charter. Fees for these options range from $30 USD to around $150 USD each way, per person.

 

Hotel Accommodations:

Elm Street Photography Tours LLC will make all of the reservations. All hotels will be comfortable, with three-star and four-star establishments.

 

Logistical information:

Visiting the Galápagos will most likely be unlike any other place you have visited. As a visitor to these highly protected islands, you will not be allowed to rent a car. Honestly, there is a list of activities that you are not allowed to do without being in the presence of a licensed Galápagos naturalist (a guide). Do not let this sway your decision about going to the Galápagos. Elm Street Photography Tours LLC will create an itinerary for you where you stay on Isla Isabela, an island that has many locations available for tourists to visit without having to be with a naturalist. The port town of Puerto Villamil is full of hotels, beachfront restaurants, snorkeling locations, and bike trails, which can all be taken advantage of without being with a guide. I have personally spent 8 days on Isla Isabela and in Puerto Villamil, and the experience that I had was amazing!
