Ecuador is probably the world's most bio-diversified country in both flora and fauna. Its biological richness is reflected in a variety of organism: 10% of the vascular plant species is located within an area that covers just 0.02% of the Earth's surface.
Ecuador's diverse ecosystems have interacted throughout geological history in a variety of habitants. Just imagine all these regions in one country: the Galapagos Islands, the Pacific coast, the Andes and the Amazon basin.

RECOMMENDATIONS IN SELECTING YOUR GALAPAGOS BOAT
One of the most important aspects to consider in any Galapagos cruise is the quality of the onboard NATURALIST GUIDE. He/she will make one of the biggest differences on your cruise. This particularly applies to his/her ability to communicate in ENGLISH (the level of English spoken varies from yacht to yacht) and his/her level of KNOWLEDGE on Galapagos (history, flora, fauna etc).
Another very important aspect is the CRUISE RATE, which does not necessarily
reflect the quality of the cruise. The more expensive options are not
always higher quality cruises. Sadly, there are no under-priced cruises;
there are about a dozen reasonably- priced cruises and the vast majority
are very expensive options. Most people are looking for reasonably-priced
cruises (that provide a good itinerary, balanced meals, are clean &
safe and carry a qualified naturalist guide). These options are limited
and most popularly selected.
