Wow, there's a MasterCard commercial somewhere here:
cost of dive trip to Galapagos $6000
cost of other trip expenses $500
diving with dolphins, hammerheads, and whale sharks all on one trip: PRICELESS.


No, no. Not on one trip. All on one dive. Just about every dive!

Day 5 took us to Isabella where we hoped to see Manta Rays. No such luck so let's have a look at some of her land inhabitants.
Galapagos Penguins, Blue Footed Booby, Marine Iguana and Flightless Cormorant.

On the final day, a trip to see the giant tortoises. Males can weigh up to 500 lbs, females around 200 lbs. I've included one of me to give some scale as to their size.
For an even better shot, stay tuned for the Adventures of Marco Pollo!
