There isn’t really a right answer to this question! Galapagos and Ecuador are year round destinations thanks to their location on the equator. In Galapagos each month has its own special highlights. Hopefully this month by month guide to the climate and wildlife activity in the islands can help you choose.
Probably the best and easiest way is for you to give us a call and let us know what the key priorities are for your Galapagos holiday and we will be able to recommend the best time for your trip.
