Ecuador's Leading Hospitality Company Announces 15- Day Adventure Combining Galapagos with Machu Picchu
Historically, up to 30 percent of visitors to the Galapagos go on to combine a visit to Peru's Machu Picchu.
- (1888PressRelease) June 04, 2011 - QUITO, ECUADOR - Ecuador's leading hospitality company for active adventure, Red Mangrove Galapagos and Ecuador Lodges http://www.redmangrove.com/, announces a 15 day / 14 night program combining Galapagos and Machu Picchu that begins and ends in Quito with a full-day tour here before flying to Galapagos for five days and then on to Lima and an immersion in Machu Picchu.
This adventure is $4,348 per person double, $5,880 single and $3,988 triple inclusive of accommodations, English-speaking naturalist guides, use of bicycles and snorkeling gear, and most of the meals. Not included are intra-destination air tickets and the $100 per international visitor entrance fee to Galapagos National Park.
Hernan Rodas, visionary founder and owner, recognizes that a trip to South America is a long way to go.
"So why not combine two of the continent's foremost visitor attractions," says Rodas. "We've put these two magical destinations into one unforgettable adventure tour in order to offer the very best of South America. Combining these programs under one umbrella always makes it easier for our clients to plan their adventure."
Historically he has observed that up to 30 percent of his clients already combine both attractions.
"Perhaps the number is higher; sometimes we never get to know if our clients are going or coming from Peru before or after our Galapagos portion. Sometimes we find out just by coincidence when we get information about their international flight arrangements. So, we are confident that we will gain good numbers of enquiries on this one, as it is much easier to deal with only one operator," says Rodas.

About Red Mangrove Galapagos and Ecuador Lodges
Red Mangrove Galapagos and Ecuador Lodges in 2007 introduced a land-based alternative to exploring the Galapagos that heretofore was a cruise-only destination. While it may be best known for its upscale lodging and dive operations in the Galapagos, recent expansion has made it a leader in mainland Ecuador hospitality as well. With upscale waterfront lodges strategically situated on Santa Cruz, Isabela and Floreana, it is the only company offering high quality, branded accommodations and services on multiple islands in the Galapagos and across mainland Ecuador. Because it is land-based, Red Mangrove can offer a more extensive roster of activities and more flexibility than traditional cruise options.
The customary way to experience Red Mangrove's Galapagos hospitality is to spend a number of nights on each island accessed by small boat and/or aircraft. With 14 guest rooms, Aventura Lodge on Santa Cruz is distinguished by its architectural design which blends its mangrove forest and seafront environments tastefully and responsibly. Separated from the ocean by a white sand, palm-lined beach, Isabela Lodge offers eight rooms outside the fisherman's village of Puerto Villamil on one of the most volcanically active islands on Earth. Red Mangrove Floreana Lodge is a gathering of 10 private pine cottages just a five minute walk from the village of Puerto Velasco Ibarra (population 150). Red Mangrove Divers Lodge Santa Cruz has 11 rooms near the Red Mangrove Dive Academy. Red Mangrove Isabela Divers Lodge features 5-rooms adjacent to scenic Puerto Villamil. On the mainland coast of Ecuador Samai Lodge with 11 rooms is an inn-and-spa suited for recollection, relaxation and wellness surrounded by the sounds of the jungle and crashing surf.
The company recently announced an extensive dive program embracing novices to experts with over 45 dive sites and multi-island dive packages for varying length vacations and interests.
