Galapagos Experience is a small, family business, operating out of Puerto Ayora in the heart of Galapagos. It is run by Paul McFarling, a British biologist, naturalist and photographer and his Ecuadorian wife, Gaby, also a naturalist. We are residents of the Galapagos, have two children and have been certified Galapagos Naturalist guides since 1992.In 2001, we started to operate as an Ecuadorian Tour Organizer. Being guides ourselves, we know exactly what visitors to Ecuador and the Galapagos are looking for, carrying on that first communication with them until the trip itself. Living in Ecuador and having close contact with all of the boats and accommodations from a guides stand-point, enables us to advise on the most up-to-date situation regarding all factors and variables out here.We pride ourselves on our tailor-made trips, searching and selecting some great Galapagos cruises and land-based accommodations throughout the country. One can explore either in a relaxing or an adventurous way. The choices range from economic to luxury, self-catering holiday homes to grand haciendas and hotels. We offer pre-organized packages and tailor-made trips for individuals and groups, student workshops, etc.Being naturalists, we really encourage an appreciation of the fantastic natural heritage and birds of this wonderful country.
