When visited the Cocora Valley, I got surprised for the charges to visit the place, I have to add that rules whereas nearby extinguished animal like “Condor” and “Colobris” are at risk as many users take drones to have better pictures and films. Individuals that do not visit the park with guides often abuse the basic rules of respect and cleanness. Supposed Guides are accomplishing the rules, nor protecting animals, the payment of the entry fee is not an added value for the National reserves of Colombia. The main area off the Valle del Cocora is privately owned and from national interest, but it is a shame if you add that the Palma de Cera’s natural habitat is not there only but more in the forest of the cordillera of Colombia

We (my husband and I ) had an amazing time in the Galapagos Islands! We did this trip at the end of October 2020 after the stressful lockdown covid months, so we were looking forward to unwind and visit for the first time the enchanted islands as our vacation. The tours designed by Rebecca Adventure were perfect and customized to our taste and needs. We visited Santa Cruz and Isabela and it was perfect because there weren't many tourists at the time due to the pandemic. We were truly impressed with all the activities, the wildlife and the services provided by our tour guides. We got to see most of the land and marine fauna that we expected, including hammerhead sharks. It was without a doubt one of the most memorable trips of our lives. We highly recommend Rebecca Adventure as your tour agency for the Galapagos and Ecuador. Biosecurity measures were very well respected on the islands, so its safe to travel! If you're looking to come to Ecuador and the Galapagos this is the time, still less tourists, the wildlife is truly impressive and besides life is short, take risks and ENJOY IT!
