      Most restaurants have at least one or two vegetarian options. Some have vegan options as well. We didn't have any problems finding something.

    Wow it's so nice island that's my dream. I enjoy your vlog I watched it over and over again. I'm dreaming I could reach too but for now it's impossible for having crisis in financial... I'm 64 already but still I'm dreaming that one day it becomes reality🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️

    Great episode you two! I really like that visitors get a safety briefing when going to Tortuga Bay.
    The information about why the Tortugas have such long necks was very interesting!

    wow this place was cooler than expected and good to know how to do it on a budget. bummer on wifi and cell but makes it more adventure if plan ahead. I just saw Jurassic park again so got to say there are some similar vibes. new to your fun travel channel. thanks for sharing and all the best to you guys

    Seems like a great adventure there. And I always love a good budget friendly video!! There were so many turtles there. Your lunch and dinner looked great and that street seemed to be a happening place. The Bahia Bay tour looked awesome as well. So much bird poop at the end 🤣

    • @LucasWorldTravel
      @LucasWorldTravel  Рік тому

      Yep it was bird poop rock! Makes bird watching so much easier. They clearly mark where they are. 😂

    I’ve enjoyed watching all your Galapagos island videos, thank you… I was wondering did you meet many solo travellers while you were there please? I’m hoping to do this trip when I’ve saved some pennies. I’m just hoping you don’t need to be in twos to get on trips etc. many thanks and happy travels 👍🏻

    • @LucasWorldTravel
      @LucasWorldTravel  11 місяців тому

      We met maybe two solo travelers. So it is possible to do this solo. All the rates we quoted are per person.

      Here’s a link! Just know the WiFi here is unreliable. We didn’t have WiFi for 2 out of 3 days but this is also not unusual for the Galapagos. abnb.me/FjU7Jen3Owb

    Wow, those tours are so expensive 😮
    Yay for using a map, we sometimes try and navigate around without gps, makes it quite exciting 😊
    Your tour at the research centre looked really informative!
    All your food looked delicious, the restaurant with the sea view seems amazing 😍
    So interesting about the cacti with the bark!
    Tortuga Bay is amazing and so glad you saw a hammer head shark, so cool!!!
    Love all the wildlife and how iguanas is the cause of your traffic jam 😅🤗

    Thanks for the video tour. Can you describe the specifics of needing a guide? When a guide is needed, do you have to wait at all? Or is guidance given before you proceed into the park/area on your own?

    • @LucasWorldTravel
      @LucasWorldTravel  11 місяців тому

      You only need a guide for the boat tours and to see the turtle sanctuary. You can book the guide right before you go inside the turtle sanctuary. You don’t need a guide to explore the rest of the island though.

      It’s the first travel agency by the pier. It’s called Adventours.

    If you had to choose between Cristobal or Santa cruz which one would you recommend? I like that Cristobal has the airport closer to town but I am a solo traveler and don't mind the night life of Santa cruz. Also hearing Crostobal is more quiet..which has more overall beauty? Thanks in advance

    • @LucasWorldTravel
      @LucasWorldTravel  Місяць тому

      If you’re only going to do one, San Cristobal 100%! It was our favorite of all the islands. The city center is a bit noisy as well so bring ear plugs.
