About us
"We are talking about a simple way of traveling, intense, calm but exciting, slow but powerful enough to break all the horizons, all the world around us"
Unforgettable experiences
Have you always wanted to gaze into the eyes of a Giant tortoise? Understand the ancient culture and spiritual beliefs of the Inca at Macchu Picchu? Dive with hammerhead and whale sharks in Galapagos? Climb the highest peaks in the continent and survey the Andes from the height of a condor?
Galapagos Best can organize your trip from our offices in Riobamba, Ecuador, and our expert naturalist guides will manage all the practical aspects while you are with us, so you will be free to make the most of your time in South America.
If you have any questions about our tours we will be happy to help - just contact us. Meanwhile, enjoy browsing our web site!
At Galapagos Best, we have worked within tourism for the last fifteen years and have come to see it as a long term enterprise for ourselves. We want to do more than just make a living from tourism. We want to allow local communities to get involved. We expect to use their resources such as their homes for family style meals.
We believe that we can provide you with a richer travel experience while providing additional income to farmers, allowing them to stay in the rural area and not migrate to the cities where history has shown that their life is likely to be miserable.
By sharing the Galapagos (one of our travel specialties), we are sharing something that is already yours because the Galapagos are a World Heritage site. We want to teach you about the remaining beautiful wildernesses on earth and make your trip a lifetime experience. Because we are native Ecuadorians and experienced Galapagos guides we can provide a much richer experience.
Galapagos Best is a young company. We have excellent staff under the leadership of our general manager, Fausto Rodriguez. Fausto has been working as a naturalist and guide for over 15 years.
Experience and professionalism are hallmarks of our work, and ensure an enjoyable travel experience for you.
