It is already 500 years since Fray de Tomas de Berlanga’s journey when he arrived in a unique paradise in the Pacific Ocean. Today is known as the Galapagos Islands<\/strong><\/a>, which were accidentally discovered on March 10, 1535.<\/p>\n

Every day a tourist repeats the same journey in search of a unique paradise in the world.<\/p>\n

Galapagos and its majesty<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Galapagos Islands seem to be out of this world destination. Due to their uniqueness, it has captivated scientists, tourists, and pirates who have come to the archipelago since the 16th century.
At the beginning of the last century, a community of foreign naturists implemented a method to develop and share the beauty of the Galapagos<\/strong> with the world.<\/p>\n

Maritime tourism currently leads to the international market. Galapagos cruises provide 22% of all foreign currency that enters to Ecuador in tourism. The archipelago contributes considerably to the local and continental economy.<\/p>\n

Tourism in Galapagos Islands<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The tourism media has determined that the Galapagos Islands<\/strong> is one of the places you must visit in your life. Therefore, tourism activity has generated thousands of sources of employment. Especially the cruise activities that have contributed to the creation of new jobs such as food services, recreational tours by land, among others that support the economy of the Galapagos Islands.<\/p>\n

Almost 500 years after the discovery of the Galapagos Islands<\/strong> there are still challenges for Ecuador<\/strong>. For example, continue with the culture of environmental responsibility guaranteeing the conservation of this heritage. A reference for responsible tourism is Eco Galaxy<\/a><\/strong>, a Galapagos cruise<\/strong> that is characterized by taking care of the environment in each trip.<\/p>\n
