solo traveling to scy 8/10 - 8/15 for my birthday. book a 4 day tour or figure it all out myself?
good evening everyone! hope youre doing well. thanks for checking out my post. i always do a really big birthday trip and this year im doing peru, ecuador, and the galapagos! i didn't plan much of anything very well but flights are booked so im coming either way! my friends call me mr. make-it-happen. my question is, how do i approach the galapagos? i love doing tourist stuff and while i respect that there's always a deep cut or hidden gem, im perfectly okay doing the basics! so im wondering, with my flight booked, should i head to expedia, find a hotel, and start a detailed itinerary? or just find a four day tour on viator or tripadvisor or something? i don't even know where to begin picking what i want to do and frankly i get overwhelmed easily making these types of plans! it could be a lot easier to book the tour. plus id like to believe they'd pick all the best, touristy spots for me! but if the general consensus is that i can do everything on my own with some planning, id really really appreciate some pointers and advice! thank you for reading!
