Making Headway

It is now June and the plans are unfolding.Our group is 5 couples  therefore 5 of the 8 rooms on the catamaran are now full with our group.Our planner we are using Galapagos Travel has informed me that the Catamaran is now sold out.I am so curious to who else is going to be on the adventure with us.
We have chosen to stay the first night in Quito at the JW Marriot, our flight arrives in Quito approximately 8:50 pm so not much time to do anything that evening so using the next day to explore before we head to the Galapagos.

After the 7 nights on the Cormorant Catamaran we have also chosen to stay an additional 4 nights at the Royal Palm Hotel which is part of the The Leading Small Hotels of The World which by the way are some of my favorite places to stay, they are not large excessive resorts they are more boutique style with amazing amenities and service.The Catamaran itinerary will be fabulous but will require allot of daily activity so i felt it would be great to have a few days to get our bearings back on land and be able to explore more of the culture that we will not be exposed to on the Catamaran. Once we depart Royal Palm Hotel which is located in Santa Cruz we will spend an additional night in Quito at the Radisson Hotel
