Enjoy Machu Picchu And Galapagos Combined Tours

By Olivia Cross


Making the decision on where to spend one's vacation can be a rather complex process if searching for something exciting and unique. The world is filled with thousands of exotic locations, each offering a different adventure. For an exciting experience, one may consider visiting two great spots in one trip by booking packages such as Machu Picchu and Galapagos combined tours.

Qualified travel agencies are authorized to offer unique vacation packages that take two separate locations and unite them in one unforgettable getaway deal. These might be customized by including air fare to the destination, travel arrangements via boats, trains, buses or automobiles while there, as well as housing accommodations. The individual details can be adjusted according to one's budget restrictions and personal preferences.

There are several other amenities that one may also choose to include. As an example, a guided tour through the ruins or around the islands might be added, reservations at dining establishments, special shows, fun activities and even bus, train or helicopter rides to sight see the surrounding areas as well. An individual may discuss their preferences with their agent to customize the perfect vacation.

The ruins are the remains of an ancient Inca city of the traditional dry stone polished walls, set on a hilltop among the Peruvian Andean Mountains and are on the list of modern day world wonders. Up until 1911 this location was unknown to outside civilizations due to its remote location. Because of the interest and efforts of a few groups dedicate to preserving historical sites, the structures have remained mostly intact and in excellent condition.

While exploring the structures of the site, visitors are virtually transported back to the 15th century. The city is basically divided into three sections used respectively for religious, urban and agricultural purposes for the most efficient use of natural resources. Standing at the temple at the hill's apex, the viewer may behold the breathtaking beauty of the valley sprawling below.

Traveling to the archipelago, which consists of 19 islands and dozens of islets straddling the equator, is like witnessing all of evolution in one location. This land is like no other place on Earth and features varied terrains and unique climates as well as a most unusual collection of flora and fauna. It is a magical place that seems unbelievable to those beholding it for the first time.

The land masses are built nearly exclusively out of layers of rock formed by lava as the island group lies directly over the Nazca Plate, known as the most volcanically active area in the world. It offers many unique features such as lush foliage, incredible rock towers, cliffs, submerged craters and coral reefs off the shores and many hidden caves. Hundreds of bird species, penguins, sea turtles, dolphins, stingrays, whales, sea lions, giant tortoises and marine iguanas are just part of the menagerie of wildlife.

These two incredible South American destinations are sure to provide a vacation experience unlike any other. The traveler is invited to take a look into the living conditions of an ancient civilization and to view a spot where evolution has gone wild. It is a great opportunity to truly take a break from the routines of daily life and to immerse oneself into a double feature of wonder and adventure.
